Watercolor Wedding Map

I love custom maps for wedding invitations, but sometimes they can fall a bit too far on the cartoonish side.  Luckily, this hand drawn map from Courtney at Swiss Cottage Designs strikes the perfect balance of modern and whimsical.  Courtney created this gorgeous custom map of Boston Harbor for a recent bride – I love the watercolor details and hand lettering!

{happy weekend!}

Ok, I’ll admit it, this week totally won.  I’m exhausted and ready for a much-needed weekend.  I’m also really looking forward to this weekend, because tomorrow is the annual Crafty Bastards fair here in DC!  If you’re in the DC area, you should definitely come check it out.  Also relevant to DC-based readers, one of the many projects I’ve been working on recently is almost done!  Want a sneak peek?  I’m so excited!  But in the meantime…

…a few links for your weekend:

…and just in case you missed it, a round-up of this week’s posts:

That’s it for me this week!  I hope you all have a wonderful (and hopefully relaxing) weekend, and I’ll see you all back here on Monday!
