Betsy Dunlap Cupcake Party Invitations

08/03/2009

I'm a huge fan of the amazing calligraphy from Betsy Dunlap – and I just about fell over when I saw these invitations she created for a cupcake party:

I absolutely love the banner design on the front AND back of the outer envelope – not to mention those fabulous vintage stamps – all combined with festive red ink for a very cheerful invitation!
