Set
the Tone of Your Event with Stylized Stationery
It’s time to ditch
drab stationery, once and for all! Event stationery should be
eye-catching, unique to YOUR event, and set the tone for your guests.
Consider this custom-made blinged out baby carriage
invitation. Upon opening this piece of mail, what message is conveyed
automatically, to you as a guest? If you are thinking, the person who
sent this to you loves sparkle, and bling, is proud to announce their baby girl
to the world, and might be a little obsessed with all shades purple, you are
right!
Not all custom stationery has to be sealed in the confines
of an envelope. This is one of the great aspects of working with a custom
designer. If you would like to be a little more edgy and non-traditional,
or make a bold statement, how about using a box mailer? This invitation
was designed with one purpose in mind--it’s party time! For this design,
we used pink and green polka dots to convey the festive atmosphere for this
newly engaged couples’ outdoor BBQ party. Coordinating polka-dot ribbon and
pink raffia shreds covered the invite so it really felt like guests were
opening a present when they received their invitation in a box.
This wedding invitations oozes elegance, royal, and
sophistication. Sage & Time Designs worked closely with this client
to incorporate precise detail into the design. From the single feather,
to the rich hues of gold, deep purple, and teal, right up to the hand-lined
envelopes, this invitation suite conveyed the wedding tone from the very
beginning.
