Invitation Inspiration II

About 3 weeks after sending our designer Kristen the inspiration pics for our invites we received our custom proofs. I had begun to get a little nervous about the outcome of the invites since I hadn’t given Kristen any specific details regarding wording, sizing and color but I was ecstatic when I received our proofs. Kirsten worked her magic and was able to pull all the elements I loved into 3 separate invites for us to pick from.

Each invitation was sized to fit in a #10 envelope and had some Mid-century flair featuring our font Festiva with sewing and craft touches to unite our handmade modern. The first one was inspired by the Style Me Pretty invite I sent her and echoed the look and feel of our STD’s.

Invite number 2 was inspired by our love of concert posters.

Last but not least was our third choice with had a simpler elegant feel to it and I was really drawn to the simple wording of the invite.

After some discussion back and forth Mr CCandy and I finally decided upon Invite #1. I really love the frame shape that Kristen created and really love all the different sewing elements she included into the design.
