The suite includes: A Bride and Groom chair sign, (I'm only showing the Bride's chair sign). A favor table sign, a sign to be used with a flip flop display near the dance floor. And a sign to be used along with a photo booth.<br />
<br />

</div>This is the Bride's chair sign. Rachel selected Chiavari chairs for her reception, so this sign was made to fit nicely on the back side of a Chiavari chair. This style chair has posts on either side of the back that are perfect for tying on ribbon. This sign is made in two parts. First is the background frame, and on top of that a layered piece with the word "Bride." The ribbon for tying is a fat 2.5" wide and is a soft light cream color.<br />
<br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I made two different styles of signs for Rachel's favor table. The Favor table is a ten foot banquet style that will feature beautiful favor bags filled with treats. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">This first table sign is a Flat 8.5" x 11.0"</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Holding this sign is a plate stand I happen to have handy for the photograph.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I decided while I was designing these signs that they would work best with Rachel's reception decor if kept to one color and minimum design changes. There are always such a beautiful variety of colors used during a reception with the flowers, and the food, the table cloths, etc., that I thought it would be best not to try and compete with all of the other colors being featured. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjK8sYXf6aiofSWyArA2DCmnBktmklk0ONYFERR1U630qi_NPFhBwDje9ozZ2_FbPKJhdfBcU0IHRc5bBrAjuqRdsjhgw4GVSGJDEEkBtXL9Ubi498dH0J5L9-V__4iFT3ghXQA7LkNzNbm/s1600/DSC03495.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjK8sYXf6aiofSWyArA2DCmnBktmklk0ONYFERR1U630qi_NPFhBwDje9ozZ2_FbPKJhdfBcU0IHRc5bBrAjuqRdsjhgw4GVSGJDEEkBtXL9Ubi498dH0J5L9-V__4iFT3ghXQA7LkNzNbm/s320/DSC03495.JPG" /></a></div><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">This is the second choice of Favor Table sign. This is a bit smaller: 4.75" x 6.75"</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Two signs of this size would be sufficient for a ten foot table.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Here is a great big sign for Rachel to use for her Photo Booth.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">This is a very generous 10.75" x 13.75"</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Again, I'm showing this sign to you with a soft 2.5" ribbon that would be perfect for hanging this sign.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Notice I have continued to pull the same design theme throughout.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> Sign to display along with the box of Flip Flops.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I realized while uploading these photos that I have misspelled the "Sole" in the Sole Mates.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I guess I'm always thinking in terms of true love-and this is just how it comes out.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">But, I will correct the spelling.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">This sign is kind of a chubby (almost) square. I thought the dimensions would be nice to work with a box.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">The dimensions are: 7.75" x 8.0"</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

Here is the revised version of Blue Day Design's professional stationery.</div><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhy6Z2UrwrBp5wsPlgV1cNfkLUl_sIPb3qkUhxZXAuneFfScbqRZZhhmnUEiQ6cyWoa-dQjG0KZucOekCrjL-mZGWQ0u97I9mByjcMQpEEvE_9UKIyEJm2JkSOqoW_-gVhod3BTs4RkHy5E/s1600/DSC02317.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhy6Z2UrwrBp5wsPlgV1cNfkLUl_sIPb3qkUhxZXAuneFfScbqRZZhhmnUEiQ6cyWoa-dQjG0KZucOekCrjL-mZGWQ0u97I9mByjcMQpEEvE_9UKIyEJm2JkSOqoW_-gVhod3BTs4RkHy5E/s320/DSC02317.JPG" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">This is the front of the note card. This note card is a 5" x 5" square, with the design printed </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">on pure white card stock.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I like this size better than the smaller note card. I use this shape and size mostly for children's stationery pieces-so it seems very appropriate for Emma to use in her business.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/BlueDayDesigns">Blue Day Designs</a> specializes in children's portraits and personalized children's art.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">This is the back side of this card. I reduced the logo to 1.5" from the original 2" in diameter,</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">and centered on the back.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Behind the note card is the size of square envelope that works with this size note card.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I mentioned that I design mostly children's stationery on this square card stock, so the only colors I have to show you for the envelopes are pink, blue, or lavender. I can easily order the color of envelope to match this note card. The card stock and envelope color choices are: Pure White (This note card sample is printed on pure white), Soft White, (The same color card stock as Emma's own personalized stationery. If you hold your own stationery I made for you (soft white) next to a piece of printer paper (pure white) you can see the difference). Or Soft Creme.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I love this chubby square envelope. It has a very nice long, pointy, back flap.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Again, I will print on whichever color you choose, and the envelopes will match your card stock color. I'm only showing so you know what the envelope looks like. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">This size envelope costs a teeny bit more US postage. Our typical letter postage is 44 cents. This size envelope costs 64 cents to mail. It's considered over-sized.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Please let me know your thoughts.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Thanks!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Carol</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">This is a post card with the Blue Day Designs logo and return address on the front left. The stamp would go on the front right, with the receiver's name and address in the middle.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I'm certain everyone already knows how to address a post card-just a little perspective.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">This is cover weight card stock, custom cut to fit the US post card guidelines for size.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Dimensions: 6" long x 4.25" wide</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Card stock color: Soft Creme</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Click on any of these photos to make them larger and see more detail</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">This is the backside of the same post card. The Blue Day Designs logo that includes Emma's Etsy shop address and her business email are printed on the backside of the post card at the bottom right corner.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">This back logo image is slightly smaller than the front logo so Emma has plenty of room to write her message.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

She very kindly sent me a copy of her wedding ceremony invitation to get a feeling of her wedding theme, designs, and colors. After seeing her invitation, I was able to duplicate the colors and feeling of her wedding paper as closely as possible while making these sweet little message tags.<br />

This is a very exciting Spring Season for both myself and Ink Stationery Studio. I've worked on so many new and inspiring projects with my clients. <br />
Clients are loving bright, bold, colors that pop right off of the card stock. Bright pink, turquoise blue, chartreuse green, oranges, yellows, and French red, (one of my all-time favorite colors).<br />
The designs themselves are traditional, whimsical, romantic, classic, and regal. That makes it easy to select a style that embodies your own personality, then add your monogram, initial, or full name, to create your own personal statement.<br />
These are all folded note cards of either white or creme card stock. They all come with an equal number of same color envelopes. Except the last - it is a 5" x 7" flat card.<br />
Let me know what you like the best!<br />
Carol<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">After correcting Felicia's blog address, I changed the font color to the same lavender that is used for the fonts on the front of the note card. I think the color consistency for the fonts is best for this design.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi0bm_aWbLDC-wpGgkKZljn58EAoitRf2grqnXaf1OnuM2Kx2Vp8PjN3IiCqBU7zLNUqNLmRI926RYjs_UfARTjLHs1T5Fli3HRWAF6ZWSnpGaSM5zvQZYkW_Pb5yq6nF4LZHq5MyS7Hk5r/s1600-h/IMG_0004.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi0bm_aWbLDC-wpGgkKZljn58EAoitRf2grqnXaf1OnuM2Kx2Vp8PjN3IiCqBU7zLNUqNLmRI926RYjs_UfARTjLHs1T5Fli3HRWAF6ZWSnpGaSM5zvQZYkW_Pb5yq6nF4LZHq5MyS7Hk5r/s320/IMG_0004.JPG" /></a></div><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Felicia asked if a banner could possibly be added to this design. The concern is that by added the banner, the initial crest design will become smaller. The crest design did have to be re-sized and made smaller in order to add the banner beneath. Also, the Fragrance Belles-Lettres wording had to be reduced to fit the banner.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

I used all of the information Felicia offered as the framework for these three designs.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhAhQbeV_UcxC3lapJKqa7U-MgIQ8ESsuqHeurBVxeaPMO3lCkPF5nHXP5Kp8jwesqtxdtIYccEeIi7YOtIG42Ui1_1Nbwdmm1_YxzVVngbRtnRXimJvqwIoSC_Xu4qZs-hgGFnUyhLZ3WN/s1600-h/IMG_0008.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhAhQbeV_UcxC3lapJKqa7U-MgIQ8ESsuqHeurBVxeaPMO3lCkPF5nHXP5Kp8jwesqtxdtIYccEeIi7YOtIG42Ui1_1Nbwdmm1_YxzVVngbRtnRXimJvqwIoSC_Xu4qZs-hgGFnUyhLZ3WN/s320/IMG_0008.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I like the simple sophistication of this first design.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">All of these cards are 5 x 7 folded note cards in creme. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Each note card comes with a same color blank envelope.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">The sets of cards and envelopes are $1.45 each.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgjwF0vpccZ8aHY49Jhhos16TyCUJQ4KpXDISxsDKQVcJysxVk8Qhfgo9eUUoYV7sW1ZdRQa2ISdi9ODb5-i3yAflRcGQ-mEOsGrOUJA9_7nAgJXqQWJgoHaWOMn6zIhbENS8WOzhTZEr0R/s1600-h/IMG_0010.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgjwF0vpccZ8aHY49Jhhos16TyCUJQ4KpXDISxsDKQVcJysxVk8Qhfgo9eUUoYV7sW1ZdRQa2ISdi9ODb5-i3yAflRcGQ-mEOsGrOUJA9_7nAgJXqQWJgoHaWOMn6zIhbENS8WOzhTZEr0R/s320/IMG_0010.JPG" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Felicia offered two different logos that she admires for me to use as inspiration.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">The first is the logo that the <a href="http://fairmont.com/thePlaza">Plaza Hotel</a> uses to identify their business. A very nice crest. The second, the logo used for the <a href="http://www.laduree.fr/">Laduree</a> labels on their confection packaging. I'm hesitant to "copy" another's logo, because first it is wrong as far as copy rights are concerned. But, more importantly, I think any business is better off to find it's own distinctive voice and identity.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj-SagJbWAAHp1vOajUmoiwxPUhfb8vUIhbS1aWb8IdJdCP3WbbjMo8PMcXFK3oa9XwriTtr4Fxj5e2-9sjo6TOECQJ3Yzh95S3eWD7-SCtXOTl7dL7bNp2WPeWhCloW6tSOLe_kKtaVtiV/s1600-h/IMG_0011.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj-SagJbWAAHp1vOajUmoiwxPUhfb8vUIhbS1aWb8IdJdCP3WbbjMo8PMcXFK3oa9XwriTtr4Fxj5e2-9sjo6TOECQJ3Yzh95S3eWD7-SCtXOTl7dL7bNp2WPeWhCloW6tSOLe_kKtaVtiV/s320/IMG_0011.JPG" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">This is the inside with the Fragrance Belles-Lettres blog address. I think placing this additional information</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">on the front of the note card added a bit to much to the overall design.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I also realized after taking these photos that Felicia's blog address does not include the hyphen.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">So, the inside blog address of these designs would need to be corrected before completing this project.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7Q7eisKXGcz4wJVUORxS15c7BwXWAQaE6UJW_sELLhVjIINdNtcCg47Dr9vJxgCkz094OWi-msi6FhPUmkCKXnHDQiRbVziDxEajB3L3SuzdZXKZ1bMrzvWqZ1gAvVrlBgDAflyC87Y0h/s1600-h/IMG_0007.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7Q7eisKXGcz4wJVUORxS15c7BwXWAQaE6UJW_sELLhVjIINdNtcCg47Dr9vJxgCkz094OWi-msi6FhPUmkCKXnHDQiRbVziDxEajB3L3SuzdZXKZ1bMrzvWqZ1gAvVrlBgDAflyC87Y0h/s320/IMG_0007.JPG" /></a></div><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Here is the second design for Felicia to consider. These are all in gold, with the crest or emblem design a soft black layered with a gold saturation on top. Very rich looking.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">This design is a little more feminine and has a combination of two fonts. One block, and the other a script font. I like the font combinations</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Felicia wanted to see Gold and Lavender in her design, so I sampled this card with a Lavender color included in the monogram design. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Here again is the inside blog address for Fragrance Belles-Lettres.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">This would have to be corrected before completing.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj2vjMShMBDm2p-B7j3V1becmEzOlX1E9PiiuOS-6pKp6XOQ2nwxkHpq9RBxxLFNx0F7GNQEUT3YhDRK5fpmeAnsF1N7PSZ03eXC2IUUIEObs076_yeNrXbNdnX2JmicSGa9HJ3HXL6gYnz/s1600-h/IMG_0012.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj2vjMShMBDm2p-B7j3V1becmEzOlX1E9PiiuOS-6pKp6XOQ2nwxkHpq9RBxxLFNx0F7GNQEUT3YhDRK5fpmeAnsF1N7PSZ03eXC2IUUIEObs076_yeNrXbNdnX2JmicSGa9HJ3HXL6gYnz/s320/IMG_0012.JPG" /></a></div><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">This third design is a bit more whimsical.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Felicia wanted to see a crown over the logo design. But, while working with these designs I considered that the designs themselves were too elaborate for the addition of a crown. I created this design specifically to be able to include a crown in the design.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Again, I used two different fonts. A script and a block font.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">On each of these designs the block font used on the card's front is also the block font used on the card's inside for the blog address. Too many fonts begins to look haphazard, but two fonts seem to be just right.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

I want to offer you an opportunity to help your friends save on the cost of their wedding.<br />
It doesn't matter if you are a previous or current Bride, a Groom, or Mother of the Bride - you all have the opportunity to help your engaged friends save!<br />
I've been in the business of working with brides for over four years now. Helping to plan and organize their weddings, designing and developing their wedding suite stationery, or working with some brides at the very last minute to design a wedding program, a menu, or any of the many paper items needed to help pull their wedding together. I have truly enjoyed every minute. And, I have a very good understanding of all of the costs associated with putting together a bride's wedding day. So, I have decided to offer my clients a way to help their engaged friends save.<br />
Any past or current client can refer an engaged friend that contracts Ink Stationery Studio to design and develop her wedding suite stationery. In return I will offer your friend 100 save-the-dates, and 100 matching addressed envelopes for free! Up to a $250 retail value.<br />
It's a "Do-Good" thing to help your friends.<br />
Tell your friends to let me know that you referred them.<br />

</div><br />
Brides ask me frequently for the best way to handle invited guests who do not respond by the deadline date on their R.s.v.p. First, I say "Shame on people who don't have the courtesy to respond to your invitation." Second, I tell the bride that she will have to make phone calls and gently request for those slackers to offer their verbal response.<br />
When I prepare a Response Card for a bride I count backwards approximately two weeks from her wedding date, and use that date as her response date. That gives her another week to make those phone calls to the people who have not responded, and the week before her wedding to prepare her final guest count for her caterer. That's really the entire point of a Response Card. So you and your family and any other hosts of your event are able to be well prepared to entertain all of your guests.<br />
One way to make certain invited guests respond - add a stamp to the return envelope you provide along with the Response Card.<br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">John is a golf professional working for <a href="http://www.farmlinksgolfclub.com/">FarmLinks</a> Golf Club in Sylacauga, Alabama.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">These are two samples of professional stationery I'm working on for him.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I did a little research before I began preparing these samples for John, and was truly amazed at all of the education and experience that goes into earning the professional designations found on the different PGA logos. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh61xqafxLehnL0_131woldPhZyTknXbC5ummjqpxImKAypCP9U20MvBLnCPbaaEvIPGDqJvtQBbpJJXZ7vzP7jdj4pndCBz4Ft9smAfPDITHI7bWZbs99ca54uLeetgEHDgSkOoxWWzWCK/s1600-h/IMG_0902.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh61xqafxLehnL0_131woldPhZyTknXbC5ummjqpxImKAypCP9U20MvBLnCPbaaEvIPGDqJvtQBbpJJXZ7vzP7jdj4pndCBz4Ft9smAfPDITHI7bWZbs99ca54uLeetgEHDgSkOoxWWzWCK/s320/IMG_0902.JPG" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">This is the inside of this note card. John kindly provided his signature to include as part of the design.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I recolored his signature to match the deep blue color of the PGA logo on the front cover of his note card.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">This is the second sample design for John's note card. Here I only included his name, and moved his professional designation to the inside of the note card. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEii2GikYDkV_ylFHtKfb0eQpEhBvLTOD45RKNms8hAS-egp6Py3VSdctn_BdzR3gHiVifPE6NtmqFYCJ2BuIfwQf7bsR_lJpXWuRMEHQOr5IjFIpU0gmNwyvxjshCjZlBtPrCQh3Qx-YVf8/s1600-h/IMG_0901.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEii2GikYDkV_ylFHtKfb0eQpEhBvLTOD45RKNms8hAS-egp6Py3VSdctn_BdzR3gHiVifPE6NtmqFYCJ2BuIfwQf7bsR_lJpXWuRMEHQOr5IjFIpU0gmNwyvxjshCjZlBtPrCQh3Qx-YVf8/s320/IMG_0901.JPG" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">This is the inside of the second design sample. All of the fonts on both note card samples are prepared in the same deep blue color as the PGA logo. I like the crispness of keeping to one substantial color-especially on a professional piece. Also, these samples are printed on a very nice weight soft creme card stock. The creme card stock is lovely for these colors. See if you can notice the envelope underneath the note card samples. I've prepared the envelope sample using the FarmLinks physical address, using the same font and color as the note card. This truly completes the professional presentation needed with this type of note card.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Let me know what you think.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Carol</div>Green Wedding Plannerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08800962190391786889noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3710793727667474633.post-35910311607891124092010-01-08T12:24:00.000-06:002010-01-08T16:41:51.947-06:00Kelly's Personal Stationery<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgr3S7yFdFoi8H87e29_XAJxGmX4Xx4jym3LWyUghVe5MhCTejswwtxo4HZ92uuvpfqpWXwvX1NQV6i25FhRX7tGiP6P_acfAI3oz5iS59JElK_1dxh2ndVnSaRq5yWAskZVz-wYnT78g8t/s1600-h/DSC01728.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgr3S7yFdFoi8H87e29_XAJxGmX4Xx4jym3LWyUghVe5MhCTejswwtxo4HZ92uuvpfqpWXwvX1NQV6i25FhRX7tGiP6P_acfAI3oz5iS59JElK_1dxh2ndVnSaRq5yWAskZVz-wYnT78g8t/s320/DSC01728.JPG" width="320" /></a><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">I chose this flat 4.25" wide x 5.5" long card, because I think Kelly is a very modern woman.<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">A flat card seems a little more updated to me. Plus, the size is just right. Plenty of space to write a note. But not too much space.<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Also notice this card has an embossed border, a soft shimmery creamy/ khaki border, and embossed dots.<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhvX4-iga8Cv_-kVxdycgfMn40jE1yyZ69V5GdurVxOtRF8fUXWlDaghO9nm28hU__XkpGi30rdr2cyO8621GAR_2cmOQ9LpP36vBJhmSQatotcpt7g_UZxAjaHBv4YOTEd-ZWNhbuCd6kE/s1600-h/DSC01729.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhvX4-iga8Cv_-kVxdycgfMn40jE1yyZ69V5GdurVxOtRF8fUXWlDaghO9nm28hU__XkpGi30rdr2cyO8621GAR_2cmOQ9LpP36vBJhmSQatotcpt7g_UZxAjaHBv4YOTEd-ZWNhbuCd6kE/s320/DSC01729.JPG" /></a><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"> Then, I added the beautiful, classic design above her name: A little scrolly design with a heart, then a tiny cross on top. Because, not only is Kelly modern, but she is also a woman who loves beauty and elegance.<br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"> Being uncertain, I used a traditional title. After all, if these personal note cards<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">will be used for Kelly's personal correspondence during her daughter's wedding-a little formality is not only nice, but very appropriate. Also notice the lining inside the envelope. This is my favorite: It is the softest, creamiest, iridescent creamy/khaki color that matches the border color of the card.<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Let me know what you think.<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">I have about 70 pieces of this card stock with matching envelopes.<br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">$1.95 each with a return address imprinted on the back flap of the envelopes.<br />

</div>Here is a wedding suite I just wrapped up last week. The color combination of Tangerine and Blue Bell is a forward trend in color that I think works very nicely together.<br />

I colored all of the design elements in these pieces in Tangerine. And all of the fonts for the most part are presented in Blue Bell. All are printed on soft creme card stock. The Reception Card is a custom sized piece that fits nicely with the invitation in the envelope. The R.s.v.p. is the typical 3.5" W X 5.0" L size, but with the addition of rounded corners - this response card is a little extra soft and romantic.<br />
I like that the "stars" of this ensemble are classic and more refined in appearance - while the supporting pieces - the save the date and the reception card, are more gaily colored and whimsical. <br />
<br />

</div>This is Amanda's personalized card to use for her thank you notes or personal correspondence before the wedding day. Another set of personal stationery is in the works for both Amanda and Robert to share after their ceremony.<br />
I think this piece beautifully offers my bride a way to say thanks to her friends and family for their gifts and well wishes.<br />
<br />
I hope this inspires you when thinking about your own wedding suite stationery.<br />

We have worked on this for a couple of weeks, and here is the final design.<br />

</div>Celia wanted the fleur de lis to appear as a soft background design. This design would also work well as a background on her table numbers and as a much smaller version as a background for her place cards for her reception.<br />
I like to carry a design all the way through with the paper pieces used. It gives your event a branded image that your guests will remember when thinking of your wedding, and also helps as an unifying element that pulls everything together.<br />
I hope this offers you inspiration for your own wedding announcement or wedding suite stationery.<br />

</div>This is the final design I have worked on for Bonnie's Wedding Ceremony Invitation. This is also the one I like the best.<br />
I went back to the smaller silver heart milagro and added back the scrolly design that gives the appearance of wings. I placed it underneath Bonnie & Andrew's names on the invitation. It is centered on the invitation and hand sewn onto the card stock with the creme thread. I have the ability to add a mark using my design program so I know exactly where to add the milagro each time. This keeps all of the invitations perfectly symmetrical and uniform in appearance.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj5Xzr7AzK86_Lgc9kB7AMR8ASrFpdIZmJrxscI9iuQFneuooi8nb3sPlC5DUPMItRr92cnrVJphcU95PnzzzkuA4Jqo0Fu4H2k1A0VKYqa0_aIt8VJRnFLNzX4ONmfeCSYgvAqxz-ymO8S/s1600/DSC01547.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj5Xzr7AzK86_Lgc9kB7AMR8ASrFpdIZmJrxscI9iuQFneuooi8nb3sPlC5DUPMItRr92cnrVJphcU95PnzzzkuA4Jqo0Fu4H2k1A0VKYqa0_aIt8VJRnFLNzX4ONmfeCSYgvAqxz-ymO8S/s320/DSC01547.JPG" width="320" /></a><br />
</div>This is a longer view. Notice at the bottom underneath the reception location information I have placed a double scrolly design that works back with the wings surrounding the heart milagro.<br />
I left off the dots, because the two images clash, but this more similar design element compliments the scrolly design.<br />
On this ceremony invitation I would include the dots on the back underneath Bonnie and Andrew's names, but go to three dots that are a bit larger.<br />
As I mentioned before, this invitation design is my favorite.<br />
But, I do think the exact heart milagros we end up using will play a role in determining the design that is selected. Let me know what you think.<br />

</div>This is the second milagro (Bonnie sent me three different styles), used in the design of this invitation.<br />
This heart milagro is silver looking with slight etchings. I really like the size of this milagro better than the first. And I also like the silver better. The bronze looks a bit rustic to me. Well, I realize they are rustic-and that is part of the charm, but, I like the silver better with the dark navy ink. Looks cleaner. Notice on this sample I did not add the scrolly design, and the milagro is attached in between Bonnie and Andrew's names. The milagro is sewn on to the card stock here again.<br />

</div>I found two colors of mercerized cotton quilting thread that I liked to sew the milgros onto the card stock. This thread is super skinny and has a very nice look. I really wanted silk thread, but could not find the correct color. I'm very pleased with this thread though, and have decided the creme color looks best on the card stock. It blends into the invitation color, so instead of adding another element, it simply fades away.<br />

</div>This is a longer view of this sample. Notice the dots are included at the bottom underneath the reception location name. On the back of this invitation I would not add the dots under Bonnie & Andrew's names. Too many dots.<br />

</div>Here is the third heart milagro I received from Bonnie to use in the design of her ceremony invitation. I decided against using this milagro though, because it is about 1.25" long, and that takes up too much vertical space on the invitation.<br />

Milagro is a Spanish word that translates into the word "miracle." They are tiny personal charms that are a reminder of the miracles we would like to see happen, or the miracles that have already occurred in our lives.<br />
Figuring out a way to include these milagros in the invitation design has been a bit of a challenge. But one that I have truly enjoyed. Here are the photos of three designs I like the best with a description of the process.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjCtYHCDmbzLkQjYss57-gAFfaORUVYtSIgvR56IOmfFENycWjslQ5Wnh7yHh24dgE3Y8SNLgmEl5buwMuI0vJFIqzGWWPJdiOTb6wYTz3c2a_DjhTJJ3ycmd97QKJG4DthflTzIwIFnIXJ/s1600/DSC01536.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><br />

</div><br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">In this first sample I've used the bronze colored heart milagro that Bonnie sent to help me with the design of her invitation. I've positioned it directly under her and Andrew's names, and before the event information. I like the position. Also, in reviewing artwork and information about milagros to prepare to make this invitation, I fell in love with the heart milagros that had angel wings on either side, but felt like literal "wings" may be too much. So, I worked on a scrolly design that would work back with Bonnie's Save the Dates. This design is different, but has the same overall feeling -plus I like that it does remind you of the shape of angel wings. Of course, all is unified through color.<br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Notice the three dots underneath Bonnie and Andrew's names. I originally had the dots on the front of the invitation, but they really do not work with this design. They show back up in the next sample.<br />
