2009 Holiday Cards, Part 4

Good morning everyone! I hope you all had a lovely weekend. I've got a few more holiday cards to share with you — so let's get going! First up, Smock, with a huuuge eco-friendly holiday collection of both letterpress cards and wrapping paper:

I always love the holiday stationery from Satsuma Press — these letterpress cards printed in silver ink would be perfect as either holiday or New Year cards:

I also love Lynn's beautiful collaboration with Heather Moore of Skinny LaMinx — which includes both gift tags and soft blue and green letterpress cards:

Fugu Fugu Press has one of my favorite holiday collections this year, with this great mix of funny non-traditional letterpress holiday cards:

{happy weekend!}

I'm pretty sure the sun is shining for the first time all week here in DC – hooray! Between sunshine and a friend visiting this weekend, I'm definitely ready to get a move on the weekend! But in the meantime…

…a few links for you all to enjoy:

Invitations from the week: transparent overlay invitations, Cyd and Michael's letterpress wedding invitations and kraft paper programs, and classic black and white invitations with a twist.
Gorgeous red, white and blue calligraphy!
Love the idea of a birthday scavenger hunt.
Remember Hannah's mason jar Save the Dates? Check out her wedding on Once Wed!
Ask your bridesmaids to carry paper hearts down the aisle instead of flowers.
A super-clever letterpress media kit from Two Paperdolls.
My love affair with Tord Boontje continues with these lovely votives on Pretty Little Things.
Do you know about the new FTC disclosure regulations for bloggers?
Lovely floral packaging on The Dieline.

Oh, and just a reminder to any DC-area folks that I'll be speaking at the Not So Big Wedding this Sunday at Rockwood Manor. I hope you'll come by to say hello!

White + Black Stitched Wedding Invitations

The details on this letterpress wedding invitation suite by Bespoke Press are just amazing â€” from the crisp black text, gorgeous blind impressions, and stitched details, I’m just in love:

The botanical blind impressions were inspired by the French-style grounds of the wedding venue, while the rest of the invitation design was kept simple to highlight the different typography styles used. Â It’s been a while since I’ve seen a really beautiful wedding invitation booklet, and this one is truly gorgeous!

A Yellow + Gray Collaboration

One of the best things about blogging is getting to meet so many fantastic new people — and Julianne Smith is by far one of the nicest I've met so far! Juli creates custom handmade wedding garters, each of which is infused with a whole lot of love and Juli's signature modern style. Juli sent over this colorful collaboration with a local DC designer, Carla David:

Carla took one of Juli's yellow and gray wedding garters (#211) and designed a matching invitation suite around it. So fun! Check out the rest of Juli's collection right here.
