Rustic Romance Part II

So the Rustic Romance Wedding Theme is still on my mind and very popular with my customers, so I decided to put together an inspiration board filled with rustic and romantic elements perfect for a barn, vintage, or outdoor wedding.  I love the mix of peach, mint green and tan colors together with the burlap, lace, twine and wood - so pretty!  The Rustic Twine Invitations are of course from Tiger Lily Invitations.  All of these items can be found on Etsy in the Rustic Romance Treasury or on the Tiger Lily Invitations pinterest board, Rustic Wedding.

1st Etsy Treasury - Rustic Romance

So, I have been selling invitations and paper goodies on Etsy for two years now, but have never stopped and taken the time to make a treasury.  Well, the time has finally arrived and yes, I am obsessed (just like I am with pinterest).  Below is the link to the collection I came up with.  Rustic Romance.  I gathered the items to match the new Tiger Lily Invitations Rustic Twine Wedding Invitation Set.  I love mixing rustic elements (twine, burlap, wood) with romantic elements (floral china, lace, ruffles).  Bring them together and you have a beautiful wedding.

Milk and Cookies Birthday Party

The Milk and Cookies Birthday Party Theme is probably one of my favorites (at least for this second), so when Eric's cousin Jessie asked if I would design invitations and paper goodies for her daughter's 1st birthday party I was super excited!  Not only did I have a great time working on the invitations, banners and labels with her, but we had such a fun time at Annaleigh's party.  Here are some photos from the extra special day!

 

 Everything started off with the pretty pink and brown, milk and cookie invitations.

Milk and Cookies Invitations from Tiger Lily Invitations

Annaleigh and Jessie welcomed everyone to the party.

The pink and brown, milk and cookie theme was continued throughout the decorations and cake.

 Of course there was plenty of milk and delicious cookies. 

Loved these vintage milk containers, cute straws and the beautiful sugar cookies.

The milk and cookie happy birthday banner was displayed above the food table.

The cookies were so yummy it was difficult to choose which ones to eat. I have to confess, I had one of each and a piece of cake too! Annaleigh had a great time opening her gifts in her little pink chair handmade by her papa.

 

Cake Time!!

 

They had an adorable photo booth set up with hay bales, super size milk and cookies and mustache props. Everyone had a great time posing for the photos.

Great Aunt Denise, Cousin Heather and Cousin Hadley shared a laugh at the photo booth. 

Cousin Hadley supplied the music on her guitar and Gramma Karen steals a little birthday kiss.

 

 Adorable family photo!

 

 

Kale's Mom hand painted this beautiful banner.

 

A pink and brown photo banner with photos of Annaleigh from each month of her first year hung above the favor table.

 

Party guests went home with a sweet treat - these cute jars filled with the ingredients to make cookies of course!

 

 

Jessie and Kale did such a great job planning and creating this adorable party for their beautiful daughter.  If you want to create a milk and cookies party for your little one, here is a list of vendors who helped to make it extra special:

Perfectly Peacock Wedding Inspiration

Wow, I can't believe that Christmas is over and the new year has begun!   I can't thank my customers enough for such a wonderful 2011 at Tiger Lily Invitations! From birth announcements, to birthday party invitations to wedding programs, each project was so much fun to work on. I am looking forward to a fabulous 2012 filled with celebrations and joy, for both my customers and myself! 

This is always such an exciting time in the invitation business, filled with bridal fairs and appointments with newly engaged couples, new trend predictions and party planning.  To kick off the new year, I have chosen to highlight one of my favorite color schemes and a continuing popular wedding theme - peacock.  I just love the teals, aquas, purples and royal blues this theme brings together.  You can be subtle, featuring just a few peacock accents, or go all out.  If you are planning a perfectly peacock wedding, here are some beautiful ideas.  Of course, the invitations and reception accessories are all available from Tiger Lily Invitations.  Click below the photo for more information about each product featured.

In the News

I am super excited to say that Tiger Lily Invitations was recently featured in two great publications, Stationery Trends Magazine and Soirees Southern Events.  I was so honored that one of my invitations was featured in the Summer 2011 issue of Stationery Trends.  It is the magazine that I look to for upcoming trends and have been a subscriber since I began selling and designing invitations.  I was also happy that one of my custom invitations designed for the beautiful and talented photographer, Abbie Carter Franklin, of Carter Elite Photography was featured in the Fall 2011 local bridal magazine, Soirees Southern Events.  Stationery Trends is a subscription only magazine, but you can find Soirees Southern Events in wedding venues around Northeast Georgia and online.  If you are planning a wedding, it is a great local resource.  Below are the two featured invitations.
