Happy Friday everyone!  I don't know about you, but this has been a looooong week for me and I'm 100% ready for a much-needed weekend.  Plus, I'm super-excited, because it's only one more week until the B List!  (Are you coming to our Friday Meet + Greet?)  I'm really looking forward to this year's meet-up, both to seeing friends from last year and getting to make new friends.  But that's next weekend, and this weekend I've got more plans for the garden – including putting up some edging around our little flower bed to keep a very rude neighbor from walking on the soil and crushing my poor little sprouts.  Seriously, who does that?  Sigh.  But in the meantime…

…a few links for your weekend reading:

• I really enjoyed reading about these DIY handkerchief wedding invitations – the result is fantastic, but serves as a great illustration of things to consider before you DIY (via jolie jolie)
• I'm loving this new blog dedicated to letterhead design!
• Check out these awesome bold + colorful wedding invitations
• Sadly, the cherry blossoms are now mostly gone here, but I love this amazing post-wedding photo shoot – and the bride's gorgeous vintage lace dress!
• Congratulations to Vané – it's the 3-year anniversary of Brooklyn Bride! 
• My latest fascination – needlecraft
• Love this concept packaging for Illford film
• A milk + cookies birthday party!
• Great article on sustainable letterpress printing practices

Also, my friend Lynn from Satsuma Press wrote to tell me about a fundraiser for her son, Liam.  You can read more about Liam's situation and the fundraiser details right here.  I know Lynn would welcome any support you might be able to provide.

That's it for me this week!  I hope you have a wonderful weekend, and I'll see you all again on Monday!
