Rachel found these amazing graduation invitations from designer Sarah Mick – and I’m loving the crisp black and white design and modern typography.  The trifold main invitation is 5″ x 17″ when fully extended and was accompanied by a return rsvp card in a bright yellow envelope.
So fun! Â You can check out the rest of Sarah’s design portfolio right here.

Happy Monday everyone! Our poor kitty is still in the animal hospital, so I’m trying to cheer myself up with these gorgeous watercolor +Â calligraphy save the dates from Courtney of Swiss Cottage Designs and Jenna of Love* Jenna Calligraphy.
Courtney hand painted the names of the bride and groom with watercolor and matched them with Jenna’s amazing calligraphy to create this beautiful and tranquil save the date.
I love the subtle tone and color changes in both the watercolor and calligraphy inks – just stunning!  You can see more from Courtney and Jenna here and here.  Thanks ladies!

You guys, the last couple of days have been pretty rough – in large part due to a middle-of-the-night emergency trip to the animal hospital for our cat, Leopold.  The poor guy gave us a good scare, but luckily my husband and I caught the problem early enough; he’s now recovering and we’re hoping to bring him back home tomorrow.  Needless to say, I’ve had some things on my mind this week.  Right now I’m just feeling thankful and looking forward to getting back to normal this weekend.  But in the meantime…
…a few links for your weekend!
In case you missed it, a quick round-up of this week’s posts:
That’s it for me this week! Â I’m really excited about some beautiful wedding invitations and save the dates that I have planned for you all next week, along with more holiday cards of course. Â I hope you all have a wonderful weekend and I’ll see you back here on Monday!

Ready or not, it’s holiday time!  With the arrival of the holiday season, it’s definitely time to start thinking about holiday cards.  There are so many beautiful holiday card designs this year, you’ll have plenty of options to choose from – and of course mix and match.  Just like last year, I’ll be doing several round-ups over the next few weeks, so let’s get started with Part 1!
