Blog Portfolio Wedding Invitation


My sister wrote me yesterday and asked if I had time to whip up some 'Awesomeness' for her. Lucky for her I had the day off to catch up on orders. She wanted a Save the Date made up if I had the time.. At 6am when I got the e-mail- I started looking around on Etsy and came across one of my favorite shops called FirstSnowFall. They have a Save the Date that I thought would be perfect since she is having a starlight wedding at 9pm. The cards are $82.50 for sets of 25.. I thought... Well maybe I can play off of this same theme?


I found a black chalkboard photo with a simple google search (black chalkboard background), and started playing around with some fonts, and ornaments that I have saved over the last few years. With having a blog- I am constantly on the hunt for new font scrips to play with.. 


This is what came about- I went a bit overboard.. She did ask only for a Save the Date, and I made an entire line of themed invites. Once I started and had a theme going I couldn't stop. It took me a little over 2 hours for the full set, and less than an hour to make the save the date, and all of the research that I did. I am quite impressed with my spontaneous skills that I had to share them with you! I figured this would be a great thing to add to my 'blog portfolio'.
