Today I’d like to give a shout out to a few of the talented DIYers in the D&P community. Nothing makes my heart smile like seeing your creations. Each time one of you DIYs a template it inevitably turns out differently to my original, whether slightly nuanced or vastly changed, and it’s so flippin’ cool […]

Purple is such a popular color on wedding invitations currently so we took the delicate lavender flowers and added them to a wisteria background. The result is gorgeous shades of purple in pretty […]

Plum, wine, grape, violet… whatever you like to call it our most popular wedding invitation bundle is now in purple. It seems not a day goes by that we aren’t asked to change a template to purple, so call me crazy for not having the best seller in purple. Well purple fans can now rejoice, […]

Today I’m unveiling a brand new invitation bundle and I’ve got to be honest, I gave myself a big ol’ pat on the back when it all came together. It’s gorgeous! Not that I’m biased or anything. My original design inspiration came from a vintage hanky. I was out antiquing and looking through some amazing […]
