The Fancy Flourish Collection

The Fancy Flourish Collection is a modern and elegant collection.  It is reminiscent of abstract florals with its swirls and circular forms.  See another fancy flourish look in a menu card design and a flourish look in a save the date design.

A client fell in love with the Fancy Flourish place cards and wanted me to design matching stationery for the bridal shower she was hosting. She ordered favor tags, escort cards, “thank you” cards, recipe cards, wish cards, tent cards (as signage) and labels for the wish jars.

Her color palette consisted of a bold and vibrant combination of purple, dark purple, medium lavender, deep vintage rose, medium pink and white.  The color combo/color palette is called "Michele". This is a beautiful mix of colors - very feminine.  See other escort card/place card designs.

Wish cards and wish jars were placed at each table.  After the event, the wish cards were gathered and given to the honoree as a gift.  These cards featured a simple monogram in the honoree's initials.  The tent card for the wish jar display read, “Please share your best advice and wishes for the future Mr. & Mrs.” and the tent sign for the recipe card display read, "Please leave your recipes for Rose".  

The Thank You cards were designed similar to the wish cards, with the addition of a graphic border added to the design as well as only featuring the honoree's first name initial.  The cards are blank so Rose can write her personal Thank You message to each of her guests.

Tent cards were used as signage and placed at each accent area/functional display, which included a wine cellar display and a recipe card display.  Wish jar labels were designed to hang from jars in which the guests placed their wish cards. The personal recipe cards were another great gift given to the honoree.  All these stationery items added that extra special personalized touch to the event, as well as seamlessly carrying the Fancy Flourish theme throughout. 

The elegant escort cards are embellished with 2 colors of rhinestones - purple and lavender. The favor tags also featured a rhinestone detail.

Here's a save the date card in the same theme but different color palette of chartreuse green, hot pink, and black!

The Seashell Collection

The Seashell collection was a bespoke design for a client whom wanted the entire stationery collection designed with a seashell graphic. All these paper items were used in her "style" shoot in Hawaii! With an amazing location and creative freedom, the design came to fruition with ease and enjoyment.  This stationery collection features a wedding invitation suite, place card, table number card, menu card, favor tag, and candy jar label. 

The collection was designed in a fun and fresh color palette of candy pink, lime green, and chocolate brown.  See the Shabby Starfish Collection for another display of a bright fun colored ocean themed collection.

The organic silhouette of a seashell, abstract wave graphic, and clean line from the graphic border, are simple design elements that tied the entire collection together.  And with the use of various font types, we add the element of fun! See this Starfish Collection for another beach/ocean themed look with a more natural organic feel.  For another starfish version, see the Caroline Collection favor tag.

The invitation suite features a layered invitation card and layered RSVP card, with custom printed envelopes, and matching envelope liner.  The envelope liner displays a personal monogram which adds that extra special touch to the invitation.  See how I personalized our own save the dates with a custom envelope liner.

 

Custom printed envelopes carry on the theme with matching fonts and graphics. Each guest name and their address is printed on each invitation envelope, along with printed return address on both envelopes (invite & RSVP). 

 

Also, having both English and Hawaiian languages on the RSVP card uniquely spiced it up!  Every detail can be customized/personalized to fit your needs - colors, wording, etc!

This collection is perfect for any destination wedding or beach/ocean themed wedding or event! Additional stationery such as a seating chart or favor stickers (or whatever!), can be designed for this collection or any of my other collections.  I have many different invitation designs! Also, the wording can be personalized and colors modified.  Enjoy and hear from you soon!

*Fun Vintage Modern Carnival Themed Wedding Stationery Set*

Premiering "The Caroline Collection", a new custom designed stationery set! FUN FUN FUN! Last night, I designed this fun Vintage Modern Carnival themed stationery set for a new bride! Her festive beach wedding will be in mid-December of 2010 in fabulous M e x i c o !  Loving the "Shabby Chic" design and starfish beach tag, she knew she wanted both!  So, I took the two and ran with it, creating this fun new festive design!  It was just what she ordered, and as she stated, "Perfect for my wedding!"  The scroll work, circle shapes, and stripes add a lot of dimension and contrast to the design, as well as reflects that FUN carnival theme.  It's whimsical yet bold and modern!

Her colors being yellow and pewter grey (a dark grey), with white.  Her set included escort cards, table tent cards, favor tags, and signage prints. 

 The favor tags will be used for gifts and attached to maracas, so guests can "Shake at the KISS!".  What a fun idea! The signage will be elegantly placed into picture frames at the reception.  These prints are even more eye catching when enlarged as a poster for display or even modified into a matching guest seating chart!  Signage is very important at any event, especially at a wedding.  They are both functional and decorative.  What's more fun than having all your wedding elements handcrafted and custom!  There are so many ways to add personal touches to your wedding!

I want this new design to catch the eyes of and to inspire other brides-to-be, event planners, moms, and everyone else who just wants to throw a party!  All my designs are fully customizable (colors, text, fonts) and they can even be used to inspire YOUR new custom design!

Creative & Themed Guest Seating Charts For Your Wedding Reception - Also Featuring The Shabby Chic Wedding Stationery Set

Whether you're having a small or large wedding reception, a guest seating chart is always a great way to add some spice to your reception decor!  Items like this look great when they are a larger print.  Sized 24" x 36" is a great size and the larger the better!  You can get them printed 30" x 42" too! If you prefer a little smaller, then I recommend 18" x 24".  Seating charts can be mounted on thick light weight foam board (white or black) OR they can be placed into a simple poster frame or an extravagant gilded and embellished picture frame. Usually placed at the entry way of the reception area or dining area, these fun and colorful seating charts are bound to catch the eyes of all your guests! These functional pieces of art serve as directional and informational signage. They make it easy for your guests to find their seats and tables.  Nothing is worst than having a bunch of people wondering around the reception area, trying to glance at each place card to find their names!  You can also have the dinner menu placed on the seating chart as well. This information is usually centered on the chart.

I definitely recommend getting a good designer, like moi :), to custom design your seating chart to match your wedding theme! Whether it's a damask, a vintage modern, a medieval, a beach theme, or other, just message me and we'll work together to get the perfect design!  Custom designs are my favorite and are always fun for my clients as well!  Below are some of my creative seating chart designs!
