Adding to the Monopoly theme!

I've been asked by quite a few people if there was an invitation design to go with the Monopoly Table Plan... and finally here it is!

So we have a Monopoly themed Z-Fold Invitation with detachable RSVP and information printed on the reverse, which can be fully customised as I can alter the street names and colours to match your theme.

The Monopoly Invitation cost £3.00 each.

The biggest news of the summer...

... is that my Fiancé has launched his new business - a recording studio called Studio3Zero.

Are you a budding singer, songwriter or musician wanting to record your music? Or are you a bride or groom looking to record something special as a wedding gift?

Have a look at his website and if you're interested in coming along and recording then please do get in touch: david@studio3zero.co.uk

You'll also get to meet me, what more could you ask for? :oD

A little bit of art...

Art Deco to be precise!

These invitations were made for a couple having their reception in an Art Deco hotel.

Really simple design but very classically styled to tie in with their theme.

Chooo chooo, all aboard!


These fabulous train ticket invitations were made for a couple who are having their reception at St Pancras Station. They have a detachable rsvp which guests just have to tear off and return.

I love this idea and I reckon they could be adapted to any kind of event that you'd have a ticket for!

Dotty!

Polka dots are very on trend this year and so I've created a polka dot version of our classic Manhattan invitation.
I reckon any of our designs would work well with spots and dots but I've just discovered some dotty ribbon that I think would be cool on the Monogram Ribbon range.. so watch this space...!

Apologies to all those who've been waiting ageeees for me to get around to doing these but they're available now on the website and I can match them to whichever stationery design you've chosen.

I can also make Bespoke Guest Books so if you have an idea for something different just get in touch :o)

**NEW** Albany Wedding Invitation


For those looking for a bit of bling I've just completed the Albany wedding invitation and stationery range and added it onto the website.

Shown in chocolate colours online this design would work well in loads of different shades and I've already tried it in a softer pink and cream mix!

Rays of sunshine...


I am feeling full of the joys of spring today!

The sun is shining on the green outside and I have the door of studio open so I can hear the birds singing.

Plus my very best friend visited me at the weekend and gave me a bunch of daffodils which I've placed in the studio. They are so bright and cheery that every time I've looked at them today they've made me smile.

Sunshine inside and out :o)

Busy, busy busy!

The hive has been buzzing for the last few weeks with orders a-plenty!

I'll try and share some of them with you so you can see what I've been up to...

First off this Providence order that I've just completed in a fabulous jade colour - absolutely gorgeous!

Place your bets!


My wonderful Fianceé has fitted the final item in my shiny new studio today making it complete, yay!

He has made me a fab ribbon holder which will hold all my large rolls of ribbon whilst they wait to be turned into gorgeous wedding stationery.

Being the perfectionist that I am, I have spent far too long this afternoon carefully sliding the rolls on in colour order so that it looks pretty as well as functional...

So how long do we think this fabulous colour co-ordination will last? I'm guessing about a day! :oD

It's a girl's prerogative...

So I've redesigned Love Birds into a pocketfold wedding invitation! Much better methinks :o)

Inspiration strikes...

...in the strangest places.
A small nugget smacked me round the chops in the shower the other morning (at least I think that's what it was - it could've been the body puff hanging from the soap holder, but it's hard to tell at that time of the morning when my eyes have yet to open sufficciently enough to allow anything other than a small amount of light in).
Anyway "embossed snowflakes" is what it said and so today I have been pushing card through a brass stencil to create a new pocketfold design.

And here it is...

Featured designs in Wedding Ideas (March)

Wedding Ideas is out and we have four designs featured this month! Yay!

I think WI must like our Cupid design as it's made another appearance (it was in Jan's edition too) and has a 'fab find' sticker on it as well :o)

The Vintage theme seems to be carried quite strongly through this months edition and I think I'm lacking a bit in designs in that dept so I'm going to make it my mission this week to come up with some new invitation designs in that style... watch this space!

Here are some I've received in the past...

New Table Plan Designs

I've had a very busy day revamping the bespoke table plan section of the website and adding lots of new designs. I love designing table plans, it's one of my most favourite things especially when a client has a really unusual idea!

More New Designs!


Hurrah! Two more new designs are now complete and available to see on the website.

Love Birds is a quirky cute design showing two little (yes, you've guessed it!) love birds and Bloomsbury has big floppy flowers on it. I've designed them both so that can be made in any colour and they're part of the new more cost effective flat card range.
There will be a third design in the range - Serpentine - which is based on a damask style. It's almost compete, honest (!) so will be online asap.
