Designer Address Labels

Address labels come in all shapes, sizes, and designs.  We’ve got a collection of over 150 designer address labels starting at a mere 6 cents each.  Check out our collection and consider giving these to that special teacher or secret santa exchange this holiday season!

A few other great uses:

• House warming gift for someone who just recently moved.
• Weddings – consider ordering a personalized stationery set for the couple, complete with address labels.  They make addressing invitations, announcements, and thank-you cards a breeze!
• Graduation – a personalized stationery set and return address labels send a heart-felt message that they will be missed and to stay in touch while they are away.
• Address labels are also ideal for sticking inside book covers; so when one gets borrowed, it is returned to the proper owner. They can be affixed to just about anything for identification purposes.

Seating Charts – They aren’t just for weddings anymore.

Gone are the days of looking for missing place cards or watching the wind have its way with them at outdoor weddings. Seating charts are the new black in terms of place cards and are growing in popularity. Not only do they inform guests of seating arrangements, but they also serve as a striking decorative element as guests enter your event.

Though most common at weddings, we recently we did a seating chart for a bridal shower. And why not? If you plan to have assigned seating at your shower, seating charts are perfect. Forget about arranging place cards, a custom-designed seating chart will greet guests while setting the tone for your event. Whether elegant and sophisticated or fun and whimsical, seating charts make a unique addition to any bridal shower, rehearseal dinner or wedding. It’s also a great way to feature your bridal party.

Check out what we designed for Lyndsey. And it’s catching on; we’re working on another bridal shower seating chart as we speak. Stay tuned!

Tracy and Brian-Square Pocketfold Invitation

Wedding season is ramping up, and are we working on some fun projects! In the meantime we’ll share a few of our “classics”.

Clean lines and an elegant monogram make Tracy and Brian’s invitation one of our favorites. The combination of Graphite Metallic, Pink and White completed the crisp look. As opposed to laser printing, the couple chose thermography, which means the ink is slightly raised from the paper surface. Its effect is most evident in the monogram which really pops thanks to this printing technique.

This sophisticated but elegant look was carried through all of the ceremony and reception elements, including the program shown below.

Perfect in Purple

We recently finished a beautiful wedding invitation for Michelle and Andrew of Michigan. They chose a petite, pocket-fold invitation that included an RSVP postcard, and custom map. The lavender metallic paper had a subtle texture and contrasted beautifully with the white shimmer of the insert cards and invitation layer. The flourishes of the artwork complemented the script font beautifully.

It’s hard to picture the subtle beauty of this invitation without holding it in your hands, but if the bride’s comments are any indication, it was a stunning piece.

Hi Jess,
I received the extra invitations and postage – thank you! I wanted to personally thank you for the exquisite job you did on my invitations.  I’ve gotten SO many compliments on them! You can be assured that in the future if anyone is looking for invitations, I will send them your way or if I have any future needs as well.

Take care!

Michelle

Katie and Walter – Destination Marriage

Boarding pass invitations have become very popular for couples having a destination wedding, so we were super excited to put our own twist on the theme. Celebrating their wedding in the Dominican Republic, we were able to “go tropical” and create an invitation for Katie and Walter that is both fun and elegant. The bright yellow and tropical orange are a beautiful combination, and the hibiscus adds a simple, but elegant touch.

Not only did each invitation package include a boarding pass invitation, but each pass was personalized with the guest(s) names, and the airport code from which they were to depart. The additional information card included travel info and other event details. With the passes tucked inside a portable pocket, the invitation was then wrapped with a monogrammed belly-band which held the coordinating response card and envelope. The rounded corners are a small touch, but add a big impact to the overall look of this invitation. A matching outer envelope, addressed for each guest, delivered the completed package.

This was such a fun invitation to design and we couldn’t be happier for Katie and Walter. And with the snow that just got dumped on Michigan, we’d be lying if we said we weren’t a little jealous of their upcoming nuptials in the Dominican. Congrats!

Salutations Rocks the Novi Expo Center

What a weekend! We unveiled our new look at the Novi Bridal Expo at the Rock Financial Showplace this weekend. Despite some major meltdowns (computer crashes were only the beginning!) we pulled everything together and couldn’t have been more pleased with the results. We met so many wonderful brides who seemed as excited as we are about our new look.

Though the show seemed a bit smaller than years past, the turnout was great. We met a lot of brides ready to get started on their invitations. So many that we were actually booking appointments as far in advance as March!

Our seating charts were a big hit, as well as our Green Damask invitation ensemble, which we’ll be featuring here soon. Our work was well received and brides loved the idea of being able to design their own invites using supplies from our paper shop.

We’re still recovering a bit from a whirlwind of a weekend, but we’re more excited than anything else. If you missed us at the show, check out our new website to view our invitation gallery and learn more about what we do.
