Erin's simple and elegant graduation party invitation

Erin's mom called me on Tuesday in a panic...she had been trying to print invitations to her daughter's graduation party herself - but just got too frustrated with the process...lining up the wording, trying to make it fit within the border was just too difficult for her...annnnnd she wanted to get the invitation out by the end of the week! Working with supplies I had on hand I mustered up these simple and elegant invitations on an cream colored stock. I had them printed and delivered to her by Thursday!
Here is just a quick close up of the border I love the look of the triple line & indent...it makes a very standard piece of card stock look upscale and elegant.

Introducing: The Catherine Booklet Invitation

The booklet is soooo the new pocket fold. Anyone else getting tired yet of the pocket fold? It's been done, and although I've always been a fan of it I'm ready for something new! So...I've created a new invitation type, THE BOOKLET STYLE, and I'm naming it after my mother-in-law Catherine! She is a school teacher...so books have always been right up her ally!

This is for sure a unique and different invitation. All the pertinent wedding information is kept nicely in this cute little booklet, each page holding the same information a standard enclosure card would hold. The top layer is a gorgeous piece of vellum featuring the future mr. and mrs. last name initial. So when guests open the envelope they will see this with the invitation directly below it.

The next page features all the reception information including time location, shuttle information. There was also additional room to provide guests with hotel room blocking information!

If you have more information no worries, additional pages can easily be added to accommodate all of your info!

All the pages in the booked are scored to provide easy page turning. All the pages are held nicely together with two layers of ribbon and decorative brats and are backed to a sturdy metallic 5x7 card stock!

As of now the RSVP card stands separately, but I have great plans to include it as part of the book with an easy perforated detachment!


All pieces of this invitation are completely customizable. Paper colors can all be changed, monogram, wording, layout, number of pages can all be customized to meet your needs! My favorite part to customize would also be in the ribbon & brat choices...did you know the brats (which are the small silver squares up the left edge) can have rhinestones? Different shapes and sizes are also available!

Maria & Marc's Flourish Border White Panel Invitation

Maria & Marc had originally choose a send-n-seal invitation from one of our stationery albums...however after getting a sample they were quite thrilled with it. I generally do not recommend a send-n-seal as I feel they lack presence and I always fear that they will rip or be over looked in the mail.

So when they decided to go custom I was thrilled! Not only did they get a great invitation, they even saved money over the send-n-seal invite! Who would have ever thought a custom invitation could beat the price of a send-n-seal invite...even more, a send-n-seal invitation that was discounted!?! Well I'm hear to tell you it can be done! :)
Maria & Marc were also a little concerned about the rsvps and people bringing more people than were invited..so they had requested to have their rsvps worded as ___seat(s) have been reserved in your name. When they decided to go the custom route it was a simple switch to actually print the number of seats reserved in there name...so now there will be no messy handwriting on their invitations when they mail them out!

Maria & Marc are clients of (and were referred to us by) our friends at Entertain Me Event Planning in Wilmington, De! They have picked great invites and a great coordinator!

Jackie & Brian's Pink Coral Swirl Gatefold Invitation & Accessories



When Jackie & Brian picked the color of coral as the main color for their wedding they had no idea how difficult it would be to find anything in the particular color they choose. The beautiful color isn't quite pink...and that has made things difficult for them as they really wanted to actually use their color in more than just the bridesmaids' dresses.

So when it came to invitations there really was no other option but to go complete custom...all the way down to the paper! Using her small swatch of fabric we picked the closest pantone color & then printed a swirl pattern onto a cream colored paper (front and back side) so that we could bring her color into the
invitation!
The ribbon that closes the gatefold neatly holds all the enclosures together for a truly elegant look.

When guests untie the ribbon they can then open the gatefold to reveal a very simple and elegant invitation printed in a smoke grey color - which looks fabulous and less harsh than a tru black ink.
To match the invitation we all created a simple monogram notecard that the bride and groom can use for all of their thank you notes! Again, we did their names in smoke and the & was in the matching pinkish coral color used on their swirl paper!

We have some extra custom paper that we will be using for Jackie & Brian's programs...I'll have to show you those when I'm done! I'm excited for a nice layered invitation with vellum overlay!

I had a few scraps of paper after creating the samples, so I started designing some coordinating decor pieces for reception decor to add to my portfolio!
The table numbers also feature the same paper, but this time we added a vellum overlay & we attached it using the same cream colored ribbon.

This was by far my favorite idea with the tiny scraps of paper I had after cutting the gatefold
. There was only about 1.5"x7" piece of paper and I got the great idea to make napkin rings out of them! I hate any cute paper going to waste! I simple used a little ribbon to keep it together. If you were to place the same type of order as Jackie the great news would be that the paper for this item would essentially be free as they are actually scraps!

For a more personalized touch...tell guests where they are supposed to sit with the napkin ring also acting as a place card!

With the littlest scraps I was able to punch hearts out of them...the swirl and cream heart combo confetti would look adorable surrounding the centerpieces, lining the gift table or place card table...

Black, White & Gold Pocketfold


Lindsey & Mike selected this black pocketfold with antique gold accent color for their upcoming November 2010 wedding. This beautiful invitation will certainly set the tone for their sophisticated and elegant black and white themed wedding! They had a lot of information to relay to their guests so they opted for several enclosures.
They included directions to both the ceremony & reception, hotel blocking information, a reception card that informed guests about cocktail hours, the reception and afterparty...and of course they had a reply card too!
The front tab will be simple and elegant...featuring both of their names in the antique gold font color!
