Champagne Brunch Bridal Shower Invite

I absolutely loved designing these bridal shower invites. Not only is it for one of my best friends, but a future family member!! The hostesses decided on a Champagne brunch theme and I wanted it to look a little bit like a Champagne bottle. I love Judy's wedding colors, all soft pretty colors!

Minted Save the Date Challenge

I love entering Minted challenges because it gives me a chance to design something new and experiment with photos, which normally I don't do. Here are a couple of my newest designs. If they are not chosen for an award in the minted challenge, than they will be available in the Etsy shop in February. If you like what you see and would like a photo card for your save the date, please email me at stellabellainvites@gmail.com and a custom one can be made for you. For all printed single layer items, I have been keeping my pricing the same as Minted to make it fair for those who purchase my christmas card design on Minted and those who purchase them on easy or through the blog.

A Christmas Freebie for the Parents

To this day, I will never forget a letter from Santa that I received. I was one of those children that would leave the Easter Bunny and Santa a questionnaire to fill out before they disappeared. One year I had a three page questionnaire which I made in crayon. My Nonno (grandfather) filled it out. In one of my questions I asked how the reindeer were doing and he proceeded to answer by saying that Rudolph had the flu, so Rocky the backup took his place! HAHA, I don't know how that didn't blow Santa's cover!

So for this holiday season I decided to make a freebie for those parents out there. This letter from Santa letterhead, can be printed from any computer for free. It gives you an option to check naughty or nice, to help keep the behaviors in check before the big day! There is plenty of room to tell your kids anything you want! Don't forget to sign it Santa!!

Baby Shower Invites- Mom to Bee





These adorable themed invitations were made for a friend who is hosting a shower for her future sister in law. She really loved a yellow and grey inspiration board that she found so I made a bee themed invite to go along with multiple other themed options to pick from. This design is great for a baby shower for either a boy or girl. To tie in the boy to the invitation we did the registry part in blue and the envelope blue/teal. The cute little bee graphic will be incorporated into many things for the shower.

Coral Letterpress Save the Dates

These save the dates were made for a good friend of mine and future cousin-in-law! We decided to do letterpress for the printed layer with coral and black ink (printing by Paper Mill Designs). We backed it with textured paper by Envelopments. They are 4.25x5.5 in size and perfect for putting up on a fridge. We are currently working on her wedding invitations to continue the flower theme!


(Sorry for the poor camera quality- old iphone!)

Baby Shower Invites- About to Pop

I loved making these invites for my cousin Cassie's baby shower. I can't claim originality for the project because I saw the idea on Oh So Beautiful Paper. I wrapped the invite in twine from The Twinery so that the guests can tie the balloons once they blow them up!

Invite was printed on white metallic paper with teal font. The registry card was printed in hot pink blue and green. The balloon was white ink printed on an orange latex balloon through an online company (unfortunately I can't remember who I ordered from)

Sorry for the poor pictures, I took them with my old iphone:

Tristan's Wedding Invitations- Blooms

Tristan is having a beautiful flower inspired wedding. When we first met, she fell in love with Envelopments Bloom paper in Green. She also loved Envelopments Save the Date design and we started off using that. For the invitation we used the same fonts and papers and used a Pocket Invite to hold her enclosures. Pocket invites are a great option if you have multiple enclosures because the weight of the pocket can still be hung on a refigerator, unlike pocketfolds. Her wedding is closely approaching and I wish her and Matt all the best!!



Save the Dates- Letterpress

I used a design that I had made to get some letterpress samples made so I can so show clients. I used the information for my cousin's future wedding as the wording. {This isn't what they are sending out- Those are being printed at the press this month!}


It's Been A While

Hi all  five readers that I have! I have been extremely busy since my last post which resulted in no blogging for me. I have finished the credential program (just need to pass the RICA to get the credential) and have been on a full time job search. I wish I could do this full time, but at this time, it is only to supplement my income! One day!!

I also lost my grandmother after a long fight with diabetes. In turn, I have been spending a lot of time with my grandfather who is a little lost without his love of 63 years. They were always the perfect couple in my eyes, and even with all of the bickering they did, I want to be just like them when I am their age. Luckily, Stella has been medicine for my grandfather as he hosts Nono Doggie Day Care with Stella and Bella a couple times a week. They keep him company when family can't be there! Plus Stella comes back exhausted which is always nice for us!

Now on to good news. I started taking some pictures of recent projects which I will be posting. Granted I am no photographer, but they are a decent representation of the work done. I still have another full wedding set to photograph and have upcoming invites/ reception items/ save the dates to also photograph by the end of summer. Now on to some pictures!!
