Personalized Gingham Stationary

Hi Everyone :)

Happy summer! I've been so busy planning my October wedding that I haven't had time to take a break to blog. I wanted to show a sneak peek of the personalized stationary line featuring the gingham pattern that is coming to the shop in the fall. I just adore it and it will be available in fun, vibrant colors to pick from!

Cheers

Vintage Finds #2

Yesterday Mike and I decided to get some ice cream in Ho-Ho-Kus, NJ. We were walking around when I saw a vintage shop that had a beautiful window display (I'm a sucker for those). As a stationery designer, I'm always looking for paper goods where ever I go and I found all these vintage cards! I love the mermaid one! So vivid!

Save a Date Magnets!

Another weekend over! Hope everyone got out and enjoyed it! I started working on my wedding invitation this weekend and realized I didn't post my save a date magnets here on the blog. So drum roll please....


My color combo for the wedding is red, aqua and white as you can see in the magnet. I also sealed the envelopes using a bright white wax. I'm so excited to incorporate this color theme into the flowers, decorations and even my bridesmaid dresses! Right now I'm on the hunt for red and aqua treats for the candy bar. I have been having a lot of fun searching for old fashion candy. Found red, white & blue candies at the http://www.hammondscandies.com website. I think when everything comes together it will just POP!



I should be done with my invitations late June. When they are finished I will post it and share some more wedding ideas!

Cheers!

Sneak Peek #1

Hi everyone! Although I am planning my October wedding right now, I am also working hard on my stationery shop which will launch September 1st. Here is a sneak peek of more things to come!



I am so excited to offer fun, vibrant and eco-friendly paper goods! I will be offering personalized stationery, mommy calling cards, bookplates and more! Keep checking back to see more sneak peeks during the summer.

Cheers,

Bermuda Vacation, April 2010

Two weeks ago I took my first cruise trip with my fiance to Bermuda. We used the International Royal Caribbean line which I highly recommend to anyone. Nothing but superior service from the staff. Here are a few photos from the trip! We even rented a motor scooter and rode it all over the island. It was so thrilling!







The only thing we missed out on was high tea in Bermuda. The place we wanted to go to was closed on a Monday. I would love to go back soon. It's such a clean and pretty island. So inspiring too for new stationery ideas. Can't wait to work on my ideas before the shop opens!

Moving Announcements

Mike and I are back from Bermuda! We had an amazing time and I will post pictures/details in the next post.

I thought I would share my moving announcements that I made last month. The studio was down due to the move but now everything is up and running!



Printed on soft 30% PCW (post-consumer waste) 80lb cover paper.


My new Wax Seal Stamp.


I'm in love with envelope labels. Down the line when the new shop's website is up I want to add them to personalized stationery sets.

Shopping Find: Shoes

Hope everyone had a nice Passover and Easter!





I thought I would share my latest shopping find of these amazing looking shoes from the company Mohop. You just buy just one pair of sandals and mix & match with different ribbon styles and color. The possibilities are endless! I love also how you can order different heel lengths too. I'm crushing on the low cherry wedge sandal. I'm the kind of girl that loves tall high heels but realistically I can't walk in them all day. I'm so envious of girls who can! I think my husband likes the idea of this shoe since I can really play around with just one pair of wooden soles instead of having to own 70 different pairs of sandals!
