Brandi + Tafari’s Black and White Silhouette Invitations

March 29, 2011 // kristen // 1 replies

The classic black and white wedding invitation gets a modern update in this lovely wedding suite for Brandi and Tafari by Design With Chon. The suite features beautiful silhouettes of the bride and groom and dynamic typography that really gives these invitations a wow factor, and I just love the striped envelope liners and the green, die-cut save the date key, which is so clever and coordinates wonderfully with the rest of the theme of the suite.

Pieces in the suite are offset printed on Crane Lettra Pearl White paper with one color letterpress printed envelope flaps.

The one color letterpress printed envelope flaps are a great touch:

Oh. My. Goodness. These lion, tiger, and bear greeting cards from Mitchell & Dent are awesome. I mean, c’mon, who can resist a dapper, monocle-wearing tiger and a bear with a balloon? I know that I can’t.

The backs of these cards are full of awesome, too!

Hopscotch by Pretty Little Studio

March 28, 2011 // kristen // 0 replies

Super cute vintage bunny rabbit illustrations, little Easter people cutouts, and pretty, rainbow-colored patterned paper – this is what the Hopscotch collection from Pretty Little Studio is made of. As a sucker for both vintage illustration and rainbows, I’m completely enamored with this collection of cute paper goodies, perfect for springtime and Easter paper crafts and scrapbook pages. The vintage diecuts would also be so cute tucked into Easter baskets, don’t you think?

Thanks to Holly for the tip!
