Wedding Invite...

Although this design was not chosen, I like the simplicity of it.
The actual invitation will be posted when I finally get a real photograph
of the original from the bride.... Her colors were silver and ice blue and
she rendered the design/illustration so I sent her the lettering pages
and the original calligraphy... she put it all together. I still haven't seen the final!
I can't wait... but I am sure NOW, it will be after the wedding.
Rendering from bride.... she is having a Cinderella wedding
I did not realize that when I created the black and white one.
This was further along in the process... trying to
determine if the SPARKLE silver embossing
method would be an option! THANKFULLY,
it wasn't as it was painstakingly slow and arduous!
I did the writing rather quickly, because I knew that
it probably wasn't going to fly....

The vellum sheet over the top with the clients' design
attached to the sample bottom with ice blue ribbon! MMMMM!

Recent jobs

A fan of my hubby's band saw some of my work at one of
his gigs and took my card... months later, she called and commissioned
me to do a card for her best friend's 75th birthday!

This was a commission from a postal worker who adores my work
It was adapted from a Dear Abby column he clipped and had in his wallet for months!
