The week following a holiday weekend always flies by, doesn’t it?  I can’t believe it’s Friday already!  Thank you all so much for your birthday wishes, blog anniversary congratulations, and all around positive vibes this week!  We’ve had nonstop rain here in DC and much of the East Coast, so I’m planning to spend the weekend curled up indoors with a good book and maybe a movie or two.  But in the meantime…

Sneak Peek – Martha Stewart Weddings Fall 2011 Issue

Happy September everyone!  September is definitely one of my favorite months – it’s my birthday month, the anniversary month of this here blog, and it means that fall is just around the corner.  Of course, it also means that it’s time for the Fall issue of Martha Stewart Weddings!  My copy arrived earlier this week, and as usual I’m loving all of the stationery designs in this issue.

For this year’s Fashion Issue, the editors drew their inspiration from beautiful fabric patterns – from plaid to florals to geometric shapes.  The editors highlighted five different stationers for this story, showing the various ways brides and grooms can incorporate patterns with varying colors, scales, and applications into a unique invitation suite.  I’m loving the plaid suite from Albertine Press and the ikat suite from Curious & Co. Creative – so pretty!

The issue should be hitting newsstands soon, so keep an eye out!
