Meet a Blossom Accents Bride! Kelly and Tim

Today I have the pleasure of sharing some fantastic photographs from one of our brides! Working with Kelly has been a blast! Her impeccable attention to detail is seen through out the reception to the ceremony.

It is obvious she adores sunflowers. The sunflower invitation from Blossom Accents Handmade and Artistic Stationery was the first glimpse the guests received prior to the celebrations. On the day of the wedding, these cheerful blossoms are seen in the bouquet, the bridesmaids hair, centerpieces, wedding programs and much more. Fantastic!







Navy blue and bright yellow were the dominating colors of this wedding theme. The groom and groomsmen were sporting grey suits with alternating yellow and navy ties. The gorgeous bridesmaids wore really elegant knee length dresses with cute yellow heels!

The memories were captured in all sorts of fun places! Ice cream shop, rail road tracks, porches and much more. All photography was the fine work of Michael Rastall.





Thank you for sharing Kelly and Tim! Wishing the two of you the best of what life has to offer! xo

Meet a Blossom Accents Bride! Justyna and Dave-Part Two

As promised for today, is the continuation from yesterdays Meet a Blossom Accents Bride! Justyna and Dave-Part One post.  Justyna chose a very neutral and earthy color scheme for her wedding theme. I think this selection complements the couple wonderfully because of their love of the outdoors, nature and their down to earth personalities.

White calla lilies are her flowers of choice. I have to admit, I drew these twice because I was not satisfied with the first result! The whites, creams and soft colors were a little out of my comfort zone as I prefer to draw art in vivid strong colors. The final result was well worth the effort and I found a new "comfort zone. White Calla Lily Invitation details on the website.


The invitations below are finished and ready to be mailed... 


And the image below is the final product photo to be placed on the Blossom Accents Handmade and Artistic Stationery website!


Stay tuned in the future for Part Three of Justyna and Dave's Wedding! I can't wait.

Meet a Blossom Accents Bride! Justyna and Dave-Part One

Today I am thrilled to share a little romance and sweetness with all of you! Justyna has been a long time friend of mine. To be exact we have been friends for 18 years!! She fell in love with a true gentleman and her soulmate without a doubt! They are one of those couples where one glance at them is enough to determine they are made for each other! I wish them both a lifetime of happiness and love!

In Part One they share with us their memorable and loving story of engagement.  Tomorrow I will share with you the process of their invitation design and the final product. And, sometime in October, I will share the wedding details and pictures of I am sure, will be an amazing day!


Proposal story

It was the day of our 5 year anniversary, 11-12-10 and Dave planned a walk in the park  where we always hike and ride our bikes.  We stopped at the overlook at the top of the valley, it was beautiful, the sun was setting and the fall colors below were just gorgeous in the sunlight.  I had a feeling some thing was up, Dave was not acting himself, so I was waiting for possibly 'it', I had a feeling this was it, it had to be, this is the perfect set up!  At one point he was kneeling down, (my heart racing) to tie his shoe!  I gave up for a second when I heard him say on one knee of course "Justyna, I have a question for you, will you be my wife?"  I was shocked and so happy that I ran down the stairs for a second, came back and we embraced each other for a good while.  The night ended with a romantic anniversary and engagement dinner, we toasted to our love and happiness, it was the perfect night.

Lilac and Pink Wedding-Table Cards and Thank You Cards

I love this artwork! It reminds me of a country folk design and a bit of a pretty china pattern. It's cheerful, playful and really fun! I love the bright and bold colors the bride Ekaterina chose for this suite, a little different than the first Country Beauty Wedding Invitation or another blog post of the rustic wedding invitation! Oh! And I even made matching floral stamps to go perfectly with these cards!

Turquoise and Pink Wedding Inspiration with Carnations

Something new in the shop! Carnations! Just recently I hand drew these carnations and designed this wonderfully charming invitation suite. Like all of my drawings, they start with an emotion and a strong visual inspiration. I took some photographs of these fun blossoms and from there starts my design process. 


Carnations are intriguing due to all the uniquely twisted and roughed petals. They were really fun to draw! I actually can't wait till another client comes to me with a different color of carnations to create! But for now, the pink carnations are here to stay combined with a pop of turquoise color! Carnation Wedding Invitation in the portfolio now!
