Ellie + Brendan’s Yellow and Gray Floral Wedding Invitations

Yay!  Ellie is finally back from her wedding (congrats Ellie!), and I’m super-excited to see that she’s posted pictures of her lovely gocco’d wedding invitations!  For those of you who remember Ellie’s fabulous Save the Dates, you won’t be surprised to see that her invitations are full of more sunny yellow goodness:

I’m definitely resisting the urge to just re-post every photo here, but definitely head on over to Mint to check out the rest of the photos and background on the production process.  Gorgeous work Ellie!

Anemone Letterpress

I’m loving the designs coming out of Anemone Letterpress lately – and as you can see, spring is definitely in the air over at the Anemone Letterpress studios:

Good morning everyone!  I hope you all had a wonderful Mother's Day weekend!  Since neither of our moms are in the area, we had some friends over for brunch yesterday, which was a nice way to pass a lazy Sunday morning/afternoon.

I thought I'd start the week off with some fun and happy prints from Paul Thurlby, found via paper tastebuds:

Aren't these great?  Check out the full alphabet series over at Paul's flickr stream here.

Pretty Pretty Packaging

It’s official.  I’m completely addicted to The Dieline.  I find endless sources of inspiration in all the gorgeous packaging featured there, from the lovely patterns to the quirky hand-lettering:
