Pantone Color of the Year - Radiant Orchid

I love color.  It's very rare that you'll see me wearing all black, gray, or brown.  I like to mix things up with lots of bright colors and patterns.  The same goes for my house--my office has yellow walls and features my collection of vintage Care Bears.  The guest bathroom downstairs has one wall in coral and the opposite wall in aqua.  I suppose it's only natural that I went into a profession where I get to play with color all day long!

Every year I wait for Pantone to announce its Color of the Year and this year I was delighted to hear that it's a lovely shade of purple called Radiant Orchid.  Here are a couple of new invitation designs I created just to show off this great shade!

Trees and String Lights Wedding Invitation

Damask Flourish Bridal Shower Invitation

More Options!

I'm super excited to announce that I am now offering more handmade options for invitations!  Today's brides are very into having wedding invitations that are uniquely their own, and buying handmade is becoming more and more popular.  My newest listing features one of my favorite pairings: burlap + lace.

Available here

The invitation itself is flat-printed and the background is a design made to resemble burlap and lace, but it will arrive in style with a chocolate brown envelope and handmade belly band of real burlap, lace and raffia:

Included in the set is also an outer envelope in cream so that the belly band remains intact in the mail.  The band slides off easily so guests can open the invitation without damaging the gorgeous lace.

I'm currently working on some more handmade options, including a fun new baby shower invitation.  Check back soon!
