Fiona and Justin's wedding

Over the next few days as I gear up for Memorial Day weekend (and vacation!), I'll be posting some pieces from Fiona and Justin's Toronto wedding this coming Sunday. All day-of-event pieces were based off of their lovely invitation in a stunning deep navy blue and royal pink. We'll start off with their table cards and monogram, which will be printed on stickers and used to seal their favor boxes.

Beach party!

Salma is having a fabulous beach-themed party, and I was asked to create a water bottle label. After all, gotta keep cool in the sun!

Hazel's embossed wedding monogram

The amazing, multi-talented Hazel of I Do Budget Weddings asked me to create a monogram for her wedding. No problem, I said! Little did I know, however, that this basic monogram would be beautifully transformed into a gorgeous work of art, embossed on the envelopes of her wedding invitations! See how a simple monogram like this



gets transformed into this!


Hazel describes the process of having the stamp made and carefully using the embossing powder. Her number one tip? Have lots of extra envelopes ready for those "oops!" moments. Stay tuned to Hazel's blog for a special feature on Custom Printables.
