Trisha's Mint Shower Invitations

We all remember Trish, yes? In case you've forgotten, here's a review. 

Trish has an Etsy Store called Kitty Haw Vintage.

Trish had me do calling cards for Kitty Haw Vintage.

Trish had me do Save the Dates for her wedding.

Well, when it was time for Trish's shower, her aunt contacted me about making invitations for her. I gladly accepted the challenge to make a vintage inspired shower invitation for her vintage inspired shower. 

I used a similar vintage frame to frame these invitations as I did on Trish's calling cards. Since she liked it then, I figured she might like it again. :) 

Fonts are Adios Script Pro and Ugly Qua.

This was one of those showers I was lucky enough to go to. Trish's aunt did such a wonderful job of showcasing her style everywhere. Mason jars on the table were filled with vintage candy (fun fact - I had my first Lemonhead ever at the shower) and we all took home vintage brooches as a gift. Also, the food was to die for...and we all know that's the most important thing.

The best is still to come - Trish and Dave's wedding invitations are coming up in the next few weeks. And they may be my most unique invites yet. :)

Brittney's Wedding Shower Invitations

I'm in love with this invite and I don't care who knows it (I would say name that movie, but please...we all know it). 

Izzy is a friend that my husband and I have played volleyball with for a few years now. We play on a competitive league in the winter and let me just be frank - we are pretty bad. But our team is so much fun and we go out every night after our games, win or lose, and have a great time together. 

So a few months after our season ended this year, I was delighted to get an email from Izzy asking if I could help her out with some shower invitations. Her sister-in-law was getting married and she was heading up the shower festivities. 

Izzy wasn't too picky about what she wanted so I was able to play around a bit (which is always fun). Here's what we came up with.

I thought it might be fun to do a little custom monogram for Brittney and her fiancé. I used some artwork from Envelopments and was able to come up with a lovely, free monogram for the married couple-to-be.

The font for Brittney's name is Clarendon Bold Condensed. The rest is Context Reprise Light.

We also did a custom designed envelope.  Such a perfect way to give the guests a preview of what's inside. :) 

The color scheme of this invitation is one of my favorites and I loved working with Izzy in the off-season (you know, when we're working out hard and getting our volleyball game ready for winter league - totally untrue). 

I do hope you all are enjoying these last days of summer. I'm trying to get back into the swing of things this week, and one of the things I want to do is show you some side projects that I've been working on this summer. So this week will be a mini-side project extravaganza if you will and I'll be back on Thursday to show you another one I've been working on. :)
