Story Book Invitation

 

Over the last few weeks, I've gotten a bunch of questions about turning these story book invitations, which were designed for a child's party, into wedding invitations.  In my view, a fairy tale wedding deserves a story book invitation.  (More)

Once Upon a Time...

A few months ago, I designed a a storybook-style birthday party invitation inspired by "Snow White and the Seven Dwarves. "  Using a palette of sparkly gold, apple red, and royal blue, the design was fit for a princess!

I started with a flapped gift box covered in quilted gold paper, and applied the custom designed mirror artwork and illustrations to the cover and inside pages.  As a final surprise, the party information was printed backwards, and invited guests were only able to read it with the magic mirror mounted to the inside of the book.

For that last irresistible touch, I added dimensional elements --- sequins, foil flowers and leaves, gold dimensional paint, glitter puffy paint, a glass apple charm and, of course, a red satin bow --- for a truly tactile and visual treat.

Party Invitations Don't Have to Be Flat

When I'm not raising money for a good cause, I'm dreaming up new party ideas for the under-18 set and their parents. Hence, an interactive invitation to a barnyard-themed party sets the tone (literally!) as soon as the invitation arrives in the mail. Inspired by the sound cannisters we all had as kids, this invitation starts mooing even before you get the box open.

Super fun!
