On with {the} March...into Spring!

I...love...me...some March!
Not only because it's my birth month (...yes it sure is!) but it is typically a very lovely month in general. The cold weather is thinking about making it's way out of the air, the flowers are blooming and the birds just a-singing - - it is the official beginning of spring!

This March, spring, if you will..is and already has been,
super special. One of the main reasons for this being that it is a month before my brother ties the knot!!
I guess you could say it is the official beginning of...all of the festivities to come!
They are having the wedding here in Orlando, Florida at Paradise Cove in Lake Buena Vista. It is a lakeside venue and the perfect mix of tropical and Florida to highlight the personalities and loves of the bride and the groom. Both born and raised here in Orlando and constantly...outdoors! Whether in the woods hunting, on the water fishing or boating, at the beach, or mowing the lawn together...these two are always soaking up the sun and working on something outside. But all in all, they are true Floridians! The bride wanted to tie an old Florida look into the invitations - so these drawings were done to do just that. The landscape scene was used as the envelope liner and the two palms were printed on the back of the main invitation!



There will be MUCH more to come on the wedding in the following months...get excited!


These invitations were done for a baby shower thrown for a future little traveler. We tied in the travel theme with map envelope liners, a cut out piece of luggage to back the invite, and a hanging luggage tag with the registry details!


Naturally...every Bachelorette Party needs name tags! These were made for a "Final Fiesta" in Austin, Texas. Using the same material used for the Bride's sash to make a bow for the Maid of Honor - it ties in a little bit of the Mexican texture and colors for the theme!



It's getting late, so I'm going to call it a night with just these few little gems. Like I said...looots of wedding fun to come; so I promise we'll chat soon!

Until then and as always..have a wonderful week --
Work hard, relax a little, take time for yourself and behave!
