Happy Weekend!

This week has been Operation Apple Recipe week for me – we've got tons of apples from our orchard excursion over the weekend and have been trying to put them to good use.  So far I've made soup and stuffing, but this weekend I'm planning to make individual serving apple pies and possibly an apple crisp if I don't put myself into a sugar coma first.  I do have photos from the apple orchard to share with you next week, and may share photos of my baking adventures depending on how things turn out, but in the meantime…

Here are a few things I've enjoyed this week:

That's it for me this week!  I hope you all have a warm + cozy weekend, and I'll see you all back here on Monday!

Sweet Baby Blue Baby Announcements

Rachelle from Wiley Valentine sent over these sweet little birth announcements that she recently designed for photographer Braedon Flynn – I'm warning you now to brace yourself for some serious cuteness:

The typography details on the envelope and sweet blue ribbon are beautiful additional touches to an already lovely birth announcement — and I guess having such an adorable subject doesn't exactly hurt either.  Thanks so much Rachelle!

Kangaroo Baby Announcements and Passport Wedding Invitations

Rachel from Jolie Jolie found these adorable letterpress kangaroo baby announcements from designer and illustrator Chris Rooney:

Rooney-Announcement1
Rooney-Announcement
Which in turn led me to these passport-inspired letterpress wedding invitations:
Rooney-Passport-Invitation
Rooney-Passport-Invitation2
And I love them both!  The baby announcements are just ridiculously adorable — I love the contrast stitching detail in the pocket — and the passport wedding invitations are equally fabulous.  Both by Looney Rooney — check out more of the portfolio right here.

Absolutely Awesome Baby Announcements

I think this birth announcement might be the coolest I've ever seen:

Mandate-Press-Letterpress-Birth-Announcement
Mandate-Press-Letterpress-Birth-Announcement2
Mandate-Press-Letterpress-Birth-Announcement3
The announcement was designed by the parents, Tosh and Victoria Brown, and letterpress printed in four spot colors on Crane Lettra paper by The Mandate Press.  The overall design kind of reminds me of The Royal Tennenbaums, don't you think?  Either way, I just love the simple, yet completely non-traditional and unique, design of this baby announcement.
Check out more photos over on The Mandate Press flickr stream – the good folks over at The Mandate Press also recently launched a new website where you can find a lot more of their fabulous work, check it out right here!
