Summer Weddings…

It’s the time of year when summer is here and the air is warm and people are happy!  Summer also brings “Weddings”, I should know I work in a bridal salon for the job that helps pay the bills,until I become rich from being a world famous stationer, ha-ha ok so that really won’t be happening anytime soon.  Ok back on topic, summer weddings, they are always so gorgeous.  So I thought I would search through Etsy and see what gorgeous wedding related items I could find and these are only some of the fabulous finds, take a look!

New Items…

As I promised I am not making this blog post so far in the future you have forgotten that I write them!  I wanted to share my other new sets with you, and I  believe I gave you a hint in my last post, it went something like this: dum dum de dum dum dum de dum…any ideas?  You guessed it, it has to do with weddings!  I thought why couldn’t I create wedding invitation suites.  I like to believe that I am talented, well at least at allot of things, not all things (darn I wish I would be rich, maybe in another life).  So without further ado here are what I came up with for my creations, and I would love some feedback!

Obviously all invitations are customizable (to a point) all I need is the information to plug in.  I am not doing customized fonts at this point but it will be something I will offer in the  future, like offering 3-4 different fonts per invitation.  I did take some pictures of these but I am not happy with the photography just yet, they still need tweaking, I may even just retake them.  Anyway..what do you think?  Feedback is definitely needed and wanted!  Happy Tuesday into Wednesday everyone!  Don’t forget my shops will be in vacation mode starting next Friday evening (DISNEY TRIP!!).  Ciao!

My apologies…

My sincerest apologies to all of my readers, I have been VERY lax in writing my blog these days.  Some of it has been family matters and issues, and some of it I admit has just been pure laziness on my part.  Although on my behalf I have been working on some new projects for my shop and now for my blog.  LOVE that you can add a PayPal cart right to your blog…nifty little tool that is.  Anyway…I wanted to share with you some of my newest creations and get some of your opinions.  Would love to hear from you and get some feedback.  First up we have my hand sketched and watercolor painted butterflies.  I got this idea ( sort of) from a blog that I came across while writing the blog I write for work (http://madeleinesdaughter.blogspot.com/) where a great stationer has created hand painted wedding invitations, absolutely GORGEOUS if I do say so myself!!  So I thought well with my back ground and (hopefully) talent I should be able to do my own version of something.  So butterflies were what I came up with.  Here are a few images of what I created.  I haven’t as of yet added them to my shop but will be soon, just need to work on the photography I think.

So that’s my hand sketched and watercolor painted butterflies!  What do you think?

Since it’s getting late and I didnt realize HOW late (6am will be toooo early) I’ll have to post my other new creations in my nest blog post and I promise it won’t be such a long time frame between postings!  Just a little hint as to what the other creations are: dum dum de dum, dum dum de dum…
