It's beginning to look alot like...

CHRISTMAS!  I have been designing this year's holiday cards since August (no joke!).  These lucky ones made the final cut!  These very simple looking cards will add instant elegance to your holiday photos.  Everything is for purchase at: www.preppypaperie.com/preppy-holiday/

And remember, the holidays sneak up on you.  So make sure you purchase at least 3 weeks before you'd like to stick them in the mail.  Happy holidays!

More Nautical Love

Jenny contacted me this fall after finding me on  Facebook.  Her and her fiance loved one of the first invitations sets I sold on Etsy! I was excited to recreate the suite and add some new elements. They wanted a few enclosures as well as matching Save the Dates for their spring nuptials.

I first designed the Save the Dates.  I wanted to highlight main design elements from the invitations as well as making it distinct enough to stand out as a separate piece of stationery.  I paired these with matching envelopes that contained the same dotted line as the invitation.


Once I completed the Save the Date, I started to re-design the invitation and the fun enclosures. The invitation remained similar to the one designed last year, but this time I paired it to a matching envelope the picked up the stripes from the RSVP card.



I try to shy away enclosures that are too match-y.  Mixing up portions of wedding suites gives depth to the entire package.  


I love creating RSVP postcards! And they are a real cost savings to a bride (especially when mailing!).
