Elegant navy and white placecards.  The client provided the cards. I did the writing. I'm totally in love with the cards.  They are made from Paper Source materials.  They fit beautifully into a wine cork holder. 

Table Number Job sittin on my desk.

 

This recent job was for a client's Bar Mitzvah.  The self folding envelopes were a beautiful slate gray that were a joy to write on.  The client graciously sent me a photo of the final product with stamps and invites.

Fake addresses.

Another recent envelope job.  The client wanted the last name to be the only large calligraphed item in the address.  What a great idea. I was very happy with how they turned out!

 

Recent wedding envelopes.  I love the little string tie .

Trying out a new look.

This is an invitation I created for a small bridal shower held at the Peninsula Chicago.  I picked gold and cream to match the beautiful decor of the hotel.  I used gold ink for the lettering and created a side wrap with decorative paper. 
I adore the elegant number 10 envelopes with the side flap.  I wish we could replace all envelopes with this kind.

Practice.  Writing random names and words.

Here are table numbers I recently finished for a client.  The names on the bottom are mountains and passes in Europe.  What a wonderful idea!  I looked some of them up.  They are beautiful!  Here is a photo of Mont Blanc.  Not the pen, the mountain.

 I bought these small wood tags, thinking I could make something pretty with them.

 So far, so good.  I stamped them with baby blue ink, and mixed some green ink. 

Unfortunately the ink feathered.  Bummer! Oh well, one for the recycle pile.
