Bulldog Stationery


I have a handful of friends who have bulldogs as part of their families.  Everyone who has bulldogs LOVES them.  I recently printed some stationery with bulldogs and thought it was quite becoming (even though I am a standard poodle owner).  So for those of you who are enthusiasts for your 4-legged family members we can help you out with your/their stationery needs.

Baby Shower Invitation


It's been 10 days since we last posted anything, because I was having a lovely time at a wedding in Aspen.  Check out the menu we printed for the reception  HERE

When I got back to the store I had a really fun baby shower invitation to work on with 2 backing cards and a fun envelope liner.  Thought I would share the finished product with you.  Love jumping back into work with projects like this!

Whale of a Time!





We recently worked on some birthday party invitations, napkins, cups and favor tags for one of our favorite (and devoted) clients.  She was sweet enough to send us pictures of the favor bucket with the tag, the napkins, cups and handmade cookies she had made for the party.  I adore working on all the extra accesories for parties that really make them special and memorable.  It is so fulfilling to have a concept and get to put the whole thing together.  This client is especially good at conceptualizing these items too!  I just adore how everything turned out.  

Happy Birthday Ames!
I hope you had a great one!

Hangover Kit



Alright - who needs these for their guest house, beach house, guest room, their purse, party favor or just for general principles?  One of our uber-talented vendors just sent me a picture of these hangover kits that she has put together.  She can also do them with personalized tags for weddings, large parties and rehearsal dinner favors.  Let me know who needs these and I'll get them ordered for you ASAP!

Happy Monday!


I've been busy working on a menu for a wedding.  The only problem with menus is I always get hungry having to read them and type them.  I know - there could be bigger problems!  The bride's mother water colored the artwork at the top.  She sent me the artwork and I used it on the invitations, stationery and now their menus.  It's definitely a fun project for a Monday!

It's Thursday!


We are almost to the weekend...
Thought I'd share this pretty wedding invitation.  I think this is such a pretty combination of traditional with some "flare".  It is a two-color letterpress invitation by Dauphine Press (who can do no wrong).  
Enjoy!

Personalized Leather


I just had a meeting with one of our kindest reps, Bob Cassmeyer, who owns Cassmeyer Collection in Dallas.  He is my kind of rep (knowledgeable, honest and NOT pushy)!  I looked at some new items as well as revisited vendors that I love and have carried for years.  One such vendor was Graphic Image, which we've written about before (HERE and HERE).  We do a whole lot of their date books as well as their wedding albums (photo albums, guest books, etc.).  All of their products are leather and can be personalized.  


One of the items that I really want right now is one of these key chains.  Although they are one of the few products that cannot be personalized they are such a great price point ($25) and are so handsome.  You can order one of these anytime from us (although, I think we'll have some in the store for the holidays as well).  
 

Another fabulous item that I also want (big surprise) are these awesome clutches!  They hold so much and are practical and good looking (does it get any better). 


Look at this clutch personalized!  
Also shown here is the personalized phone iPhone cover.  
I think these clutches would also be really nice bridesmaids gifts.


Finally, although it might seem a little early - the 2015 calendars are READY!  I know most people don't order theirs till at least October, but at least you can start thinking about what color you'll "need" this year.  It always takes me a LONG time to decide on a color.  However, this is with out a doubt my go-to calendar.  My whole life depends on this calendar.  I've said it before - I know lots of people use their phones but I cannot function that way.  I have to write things down for them to actually get accomplished. This is THE best calendar.
