Calligraphy//Wedding Invitations

I am super excited about my recent calligraphy project that i started last night! I love this couple to the moon and back, can't wait to be a part of their beach wedding in May!

LBC - Wedding Planning

i have a lot of passions in life, but most of them dial back and in some way connect to weddings/wedding planning. i absolutely love everything about weddings, and i was fortunate enough to plan a wedding that took place over the thanksgiving break. NOW i finally have pictures to share (insert excited shriek)!!!!

this is the most amazing couple ever! i'm sure all of us have heard that before, but seriously, just look at them - they define love.

 how GQ of them

and last but certainly not least, their custom invitations that i designed for them

to have and to hold.

wedding season is right around the corner so i have added a couple of invitation designs to my shop, more to come!  for some inspiration and viewing pleasure i have set up some wedding story boards to go along with my new invitation designs.  happy wedding planning:)

life and love.

it is funny how i constantly find myself struggling for things to blog about but as soon as i begin reading other blogs i am immediately out of my rut.  i think that it inspires me to blog about life.  life as it is, not how i want it or wish it just my everyday life. 

i can't seem to wrap my finger around why i do not blog as often as i want when i know there is plenty to discuss.  i guess i just forget that everyone has similar struggles and leaps and bounds they must go through.  why go through it alone?

i am currently in a really positive place in life.  with my marriage, (happy anniversary to me by the way) with my daughter, with our home, with my work, with my family, etc. 

i have struggled with moving back home due to leaving the vast majority of my friends in the city.  i cannot even begin to explain how much i miss them.  it is funny how life changes.  in my 20's it was nothing for me to meet and make new friends/friendly acquaintances, but my how time changes.  we took w to the park last week and we met a lovely little lady of 2.  she is a photographer, told us her name and to look her up on facebook.  it was funny how giddy my husband and i were.  to finally meet someone new that is artsy like us.  she mentioned getting the kids together for play dates.  just the opportunity of w playing with a child just down the road that was her age was music to my ears.  when we go to the city, all of our friends have kiddos her age and it is so fun!!! 

it is funny how we do not make friends like we used to.  as i have gotten older i have definitely gotten wiser and i know that the friends i have left that i would consider my BFF's would do anything for me and i am very blessed to have them in my life....including my husband.

a HUGE thank you to our amazing friends, and a HUGE kiss for my fabulous husband on our anniversary.  i love you more everyday babe. xoxoxo

post 7 of 30: custom

just to be clear, some of you may not know, that i do custom work as well!  i love it when a bride approaches me with all of the details of the most amazing day of their life.  i love it when a mother has worked so hard to perfect her little ones birthday but cant find an invitation that is the exact match.  these are my favorite projects.  sure i have created several paper goods for sale on my store, but my favorite projects are those that are created personally for you.  i was recently approached by mel and lance to do their paper goods.  i have been dabbling here and there with graphics but i am super pumped to dive in to this project.  here's what mel is working with...

....and here's what i am working with, of course only a snippet, i can't give the details away!

the mason jar things seems to be big, i am also using mason's for wren's first birthday....anyone else theming with mason's?

Fallingwater

I know most everyone knows of Frank Lloyd Wright and his masterpeice Fallingwater in Pennsylvania, well I was fortunate enough to be contacted by a client to do her wedding invitations and she is getting married at this gorgeous architectural masterpeice.  Fallingwater has a beautiful rustic barn on its grounds, and that is where Amy and Eric are tying the knot!

I can not wait to see wedding photos from this venue!  Congratulations Amy and Eric!

Sarah and Eric's Big Day

It is not every day that you are asked to do invitations for one of your best friends wedding, and it is not every day that one of your best friends get married!  Especially two people that are this perfect for eachother!

I love you guys and I can not wait to be part of your big day!
