			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Here is a peek at some of the invites leaving our studio this week&#8230;</p>
<p><a href="http://www.wileyvalentine.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/goodmorning.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-2460" title="goodmorning" src="http://www.wileyvalentine.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/goodmorning.jpg" alt="goodmorning" width="455" height="1011" /></a></p>
<p>This suite from the Soirée album, <a href="http://www.wileyvalentine.com/stationery/10/1/169/" target="_blank">Good Morning Love</a>, is so fun, bold and graphic. I adore the color palette this couple chose of sea + grapevine. We worked with the amazing people at <a href="http://watermarkstationery.com" target="_blank">Watermark Stationery</a> on this invitation.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.wileyvalentine.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/gardenflair.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-2461" title="gardenflair" src="http://www.wileyvalentine.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/gardenflair.jpg" alt="gardenflair" width="455" height="892" /></a></p>
<p>This gorgeous save the date is from the <a href="http://www.wileyvalentine.com/stationery/1/1/4/" target="_blank">Garden Flair</a> suite from our letterpress album. The beautiful impression on the fluffy cotton paper really worked in this pink and champagne color palette. We worked with the amazing ladies at <a href="http://www.mollyspaperie.com/" target="_blank">Molly&#8217;s Paperie</a> on this save the date.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It&#8217;s always fun when a couple comes to us with a story. In this case, Casey lived in Chicago, and Steve lived in Southern California. The two met in Las Vegas and the rest is history! The couple has a fun modern style and wanted something a little less serious for their save the dates. Something that made mention of their story. We included a fun photo of the two along with a map of the US showing the path they took to find each other.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.wileyvalentine.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/casey1.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-2457" title="casey1" src="http://www.wileyvalentine.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/casey1.jpg" alt="casey1" width="455" height="1503" /></a>We used wrap around labels on pool envelopes, and the bride came up with the clever saying &#8220;What happens in Vegas didn&#8217;t stay in Vegas&#8221;. I think the save the date perfectly reflected the couple and their personalities which is what makes custom projects so much fun. They are always so different and so personal!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As I finalize the details of my Mad Tea Party and <a href="http://adisney.go.com/disneypictures/aliceinwonderland/?cmp=dmov_dpic_aaw_psg_title_alice%2Bin%2Bwonderland%2Bmovie" target="_blank">Alice in Wonderland </a>viewing party for this weekend I thought I would share my bits of inspiration that have help shape the event.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.wileyvalentine.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/alice.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-2443" title="alice" src="http://www.wileyvalentine.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/alice.jpg" alt="alice" width="455" height="1454" /></a></p>
<p>From the top: These are a little sneak peek into the graphics that were used on some of the paper delights. This absolutely stunning Alice in Wonderland shoot via <a href="http://www.weddingchicks.com/wedding-chicks/favors-details/26461/alice-in-wonderland-bridal-shower-ideas/ " target="_blank">Wedding Chicks</a> is spot on. I adore the vintage china, drink me tags, and vintage books. Very much the vibe I will be going for this weekend. The photography was done by <a href="http://www.jessicafreyphotography.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Jessica Frey Photography</a>, stunning!</p>
<p><a href="http://www.wileyvalentine.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/alice2.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-2444" title="alice2" src="http://www.wileyvalentine.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/alice2.jpg" alt="alice2" width="455" height="1117" /></a></p>
<p>How perfect are those white rabbit ears via <a href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=41495643&amp;utm_source=bronto&amp;utm_medium=email&amp;utm_term=Image&amp;utm_content=etsy_finds_030410&amp;utm_campaign=etsy_finds_030410" target="_blank">etsy!</a> These <a href="http://hookedonhouses.net/" target="_blank">vintage keys</a> spark the perfect feel. I am totally smitten with this cloche Alice Mushroom necklace via <a href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=40949370&amp;utm_source=bronto&amp;utm_medium=email&amp;utm_term=Image&amp;utm_content=etsy_finds_030410&amp;utm_campaign=etsy_finds_030410" target="_blank">etsy</a>. Brilliant! And of course <a href="http://www.wileyvalentine.com/shop/whats-new/a-very-merry-unbirthday.html" target="_blank">this new</a> Wiley Valentine letterpress card inspired many of the graphics used for the party. Love the UnBirthday!!</p>
<p><a href="http://www.wileyvalentine.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/alice3.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-2445" title="alice3" src="http://www.wileyvalentine.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/alice3.jpg" alt="alice3" width="455" height="1090" /></a></p>
<p>I am completely obsessed with this Alice in Wonderland inspired <a href="http://laurelavenuebakery.foodoro.com/store/products/tea-party-curio-box " target="_blank">Tea Party box</a> from the Bake Lab. Mushroom meringues, and eat me cookies and all! So absolutely perfect!! And don&#8217;t forget the mix and match <a href="http://www.vintagetouch.co.uk/" target="_blank">vintage tea cups</a>. Stay tuned next week for a look into my Alice in Wonderland Tea Party. Happy Wonderlanding friends!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Here are few of the latest invitations we have done from our bridal album. Everything in our bridal album is flat printed on 100% recycled papers.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.wileyvalentine.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/yolanda.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-2437" title="yolanda" src="http://www.wileyvalentine.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/yolanda.jpg" alt="yolanda" width="455" height="1011" /></a></p>
<p>I love the fun pop of color that the orange/poppy color adds to this collection. This was a fun project. We used the <a href="http://www.wileyvalentine.com/stationery/3/1/30/" target="_blank">Yolanda </a>collection for a save the date for this couple&#8217;s 10th anniversary! We worked with the fabulous <a href="http://www.francisorr.com/" target="_blank">Francis Orr</a> on these invitations and we just love how they turned out. I also love the ecru paper option they chose!</p>
<p><a href="http://www.wileyvalentine.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/alyssa.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-2438" title="alyssa" src="http://www.wileyvalentine.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/alyssa.jpg" alt="alyssa" width="455" height="892" /></a></p>
<p>We worked with the lovely Tammy from <a href="http://www.charmedplaces.com/" target="_blank">Charmed Places</a> on these <a href="http://www.wileyvalentine.com/stationery/3/1/29/" target="_blank">Alyssa</a> style save the dates. The couple chose a tone on tone effect with two different shades of green. And the kraft color envelopes happen to be my current obsession right now!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We are having more and more brides ordering letterpress invitations and mixing this with flat printed pieces like rsvp sets etc. This particular couple chose the <a href="http://www.wileyvalentine.com/stationery/9/1/160/" target="_blank">Nouveau Love</a> collection from our Luxe II album and decided to letterpress the invitation to make it extra special. The results were fabulous.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.wileyvalentine.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/lpflat.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-2426" title="lpflat" src="http://www.wileyvalentine.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/lpflat.jpg" alt="lpflat" width="455" height="1011" /></a></p>
<p>I am loving the neutral but very modern color palette of champagne + charcoal. This is a great way to use letterpress even if your budget doesn&#8217;t allow for everything to be letterpressed!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>With most of my brides being spring/summer brides, I am all of a sudden immersed in spring, outdoor thinking. I am loving the thought of all of these outdoor weddings and showers, and dreaming up new ideas. Here is a board of inspiration that is so perfect for all of you outdoor spring and summer brides. And even those of you planning a spring time outdoor fëte.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.wileyvalentine.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/outdoor.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-2418" title="outdoor" src="http://www.wileyvalentine.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/outdoor.jpg" alt="outdoor" width="455" height="1721" /></a></p>
<p>Shades of purple capture whimsy perfectly in my opinion. I can&#8217;t get enough of that top photo with the purple ice cream and matching cocktail ring!? I mean seriously how amazing? The top three purple photos are by <a href="http://www.2C.com.au/photograph.cfm?ArtistID=43&amp;showPhoto=2&amp;CategoryID=33" target="_blank">Corrie Bond</a>. I love the idea of setting up a place outdoors with <a href="http://www.livingetc.com/gallery/main.php?g2_itemId=5859&amp;" target="_blank">pillows for lounging</a>, cocktail hour perhaps? And this fairy land inspired dress with purple tulle peaking out by <a href="http://www.betseyjohnson.com/store/productdetails2.aspx?productid=8500&amp;np=0" target="_blank">Betsy Johnson</a> is so perfect! Loving this original idea of <a href="http://www.livingetc.com/gallery/main.php?g2_itemId=4742&amp;" target="_blank">s&#8217;mores and champagne</a>. I can&#8217;t help thinking how fun this would be for a shower or even a late night snack at a wedding!</p>
<p><a href="http://www.wileyvalentine.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/outdoor2.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-2422" title="outdoor2" src="http://www.wileyvalentine.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/outdoor2.jpg" alt="outdoor2" width="455" height="1861" /></a></p>
<p>I can&#8217;t help but be utterly inspired by the <a href="http://www.target.com/b/?node=2241595011&amp;PlaceID=46534976&amp;CreateID=35732154" target="_blank">Liberty of London for Target</a> ad campaign. The patterns fit this outdoor look so perfectly. Big colorful blooms. And the little girl watering the oversize mushroom garden! Sigh! The bottles of what looks like fresh lemonade <a href="http://www.livingetc.com/gallery/main.php?g2_itemId=5855&amp;" target="_blank">above</a> are actually something I am doing currently. I used an empty <a href="http://www.vodka360.com/ageverify.php?accesscheck=index.php" target="_blank">360 organic vodka</a> bottle, and filled it with fresh lemon/limeade we made from fruit that grows in Emily&#8217;s backyard! What a perfect way to entertain. Of course any <a href="http://www.melinaphotos.com/taste/taste.shtml" target="_blank">fresh cocktail</a> made with seasonal fruits is fabulous in my book!</p>
