Monogram Inspired 40th Birthday Party Invitations

Letrice — Tue, 05 Feb 2013 15:28:23 +0000

Last year I had the pleasure of designing custom 40th birthday party invitations for my Sorority sister, Katrenia. She planned a wonderful birthday party at the Charles H. Wright Museum of African American History in Detroit, MI. Taking a queue from her color palette of electric blue, emerald green and antique gold I designed these flat panel card style invitations using all metallic/shimmer card stock and envelopes. The set included a hotel accommodations insert card and address labels for the envelopes. The “K 40″ monogram was featured as a watermark on the invitation and on the address label.

U of M Football Inspired Co-Ed Bridal Shower Inspiration Shoot

Letrice — Mon, 04 Feb 2013 15:10:03 +0000

Good Morning and Happy Monday! Can’t believe we’re in the month of February already. I don’t know about you but I need an additional day of the week and a couple more hours in a day! As I was organizing some files on my computer I came across photos from a photo shoot I was a part of and realized that I never featured it here on the blog.
I teamed up with event planner Lisa of Gabbi Grace Events and florist Kim of Something Spectacular for this co-ed bridal shower inspiration shoot. The design was inspired by the University of Michigan football team and the shoot was held on the field of their (then new) Big House….very exciting in deed! The beautiful photos were taken by Jackie of JACQART. Stationery details created were the banner, chair signs, table number, menu cards and favor tags(not featured). Check out the photos below and see more details of the feature by visiting Brenda’s Wedding Blog!

Purple and Silver Vintage Wedding Invitations

Letrice — Tue, 22 Jan 2013 15:44:28 +0000

It was great working with Kenia, one of my 2012 brides who had lots of personality and style! After discussing her wedding design details she decided on these flat panel style invitations featuring a ribbon embellishment that held the cards in the back of the invitation. We used all metallic card stock and digital printing in her purple and silver color palette. They were the perfect invitation to set the tone for their special day.

Masculine 70th Birthday Party Invitations

Letrice — Wed, 16 Jan 2013 12:00:34 +0000

Custom invitations and a custom monogram were designed to celebrate the 70th birthday of the father of one of my past clients. The invitations evolved around a masculine look in the color palette of burnt orange, chocolate brown, light blue and cream. A very appropriate look for a fall party that I absolutely loved! The invitation sets were printed on cream linen card stock and the main invitation panel featured a double sided design. Coordinating rsvp postcards were designed as well. The light blue mailing envelopes complimented the entire invitation set.

Monogram Baseball Ticket Wedding Invitations

Letrice — Mon, 14 Jan 2013 15:31:24 +0000

Our signature baseball ticket invitations are perfect for setting the tone for your baseball themed wedding! These invitations still have much class and style without being to casual for the baseball theme. For this custom set I designed for Tyler and Adrienne we used all metallic/shimmer card stock and envelopes in a color palette of fuchsia, charcoal grey and white. For their second insert ticket/card they wanted guests to fill out “Winning Strategies” of well wishes and marriage advice which served as a great keepsake and memory for them. Both this card and the rsvp card were perforated so guests could mail them back in the coordinating response envelope. Instead of a team logo the couple used their own monogram created from the initials of both of their first names.
