Wow, it's been quite a while since I've posted and I'm really sorry about that. It's not that I haven't been around, i have been, it's just I guess I get so caught up in reading everyone else's planning journals, that I tend to forget I have one too!
Anyway, here are pictures of some of things that I have had made for the wedding.
First, I'll start with my wedding invitations. (I just put them out in the mail today!!!! Yay, there's definitely no turning back now!).
Our wedding colors are soft browns, dusty pale pink, champagne. So, as you can see the outer envelope is a chocolate color with a shimmer to it with a champagne or golden color card stock for the backing of the invitation which was done on ecru colored paper. In keeping with the country rustic theme (of which I would like to incorporate buttons and burlap) I made a mickey head silhouette with light shimmery brown buttons. In keeping with the "horse" thing I have going on, I added western, horsey wording on the invitations and a WICKED cute stamp on the mailing envelope. (at least I think it's really cute! hahaha )I was also going to tie burlap ribbons around the outer part of the invitation but the post office wanted to add a lot of money for postage because it made the envelope bulky. So, with a little bit of disappointment, I decided to nix the idea of the burlap ribbons. I'll find another use for them somewhere down the line.
