<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Vermont suits
this couple. Really well. The Bride and Groom met at the University of
Vermont in Burlington and since graduation a few years back neither of
them have felt the need to leave the Green Mountain State. So when it
came to choosing a location for their wedding they searched for an
outdoor location and what they found fit them perfectly!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Vintage and earthy. Those are the two words the bride used to describe what she was looking for in an invitation. Bringing in the fern clippings tied to the invitations added the natural touch she was looking for and I have plenty of ferns growing in my yard. Nice. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">As for the vintage part of the wedding? The bride wore her grandmother's wedding dress which was also worn by her mother! A few alterations, one of which was creating cap sleeves instead of long sleeves, and this vintage all-over lace gown became "Sarah". For the reception the vintage china was not matching but was all blue & white. It was truly a beautiful and delicious family-style dining experience for the guests. After dinner, the dancing to five different bands/other guests(!) went on into the wee hours.</span><br />

Combining the beach and elegance into a wedding invitation can be a delightful challenge. The texture of sand, the shades of blue, the shimmer of sun on the water. Even better than that? This couple's precious story!<br />
Katie came to the San Diego area from Germany as an exchange student for her junior year of high school and that is where they met and dated for a few months. The friends she made that year stayed close to her heart and as the years went by she came back to visit quite a few times. It was during one of those trips that she and Grant reconnected, began dating in that long-distance fashion (Skype!), and truly fell in love.<br />
But back to the invitations! A special way to keep the beachy blues in play was to use a watercolor of a beach photo for the map pocket-liner as well as the backside of the invitation extra pieces (i.e. rsvp card, welcome party card).Kimhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07746815382984092046noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4502804932628640248.post-46697322072730045312016-05-30T16:25:00.000-07:002016-05-30T21:53:33.684-07:00Backyard Scrabble Game DIY<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Just taking a break from posting invitations because <i>finally</i> a game was played on my giant Scrabble board and I'm still giddy! When I saw a <a href="http://www.sunset.com/garden/backyard-projects/backyard-scrabble" target="_blank">Scrabble board in a concrete patio</a> while perusing Pinterest I knew my husband wouldn't go for it, but I also knew I needed to figure out how to make this happen in our backyard. Another peruse through Pinterest and I discovered that folks are painting on canvas drop cloths to create rugs. Well surely I can paint a Scrabble board on a painters drop cloth! </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">It took me forever. Measuring... taping... painting. Waiting for paint to dry. Taping and painting again. Then stenciling the letters and their point value on 4" wood squares. A friend came up with the idea for the letter trays made of a 36" length of wood with an angled groove down the center of it. Perfect! The tuffets? I found those at Home Depot and they are extremely lightweight. When it's time to clean up just fold up the board with the trays wrapped inside, put the letters in their bag and wait for another nice day to bring it out again.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">With a touch of rustic and a touch of patriotism this wedding invitation captured the essence of this couple and their wedding. The "birch barque" paper combined with the shimmer of the red and blue papers let the guests know that yes, the wedding is in a barn but they can wear their fancy duds!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">The bride has always loved red, white and blue (although she went for gray!), loves American history, and had always wanted to get married on the Fourth of July. Well, the date didn't work out because the groom, a US Marine, will be deployed then. More recently he was stationed in Maryland so whenever the bride went to visit they enjoyed Washington D.C. and all the historical sites it has to offer.</span><br />

<br />
The theme isn't new but it's so darn cute! Rehearsal dinner invitations can be fun or fancy and this client requested FUN! on behalf of the bride and groom. Of course BBQ is on the menu and the "red, white and blue" color theme honors the groom who serves in the United States Navy. I knew when I found my husband's Wranglers in the closet that this jean's pocket invitation style would be perfect. The "W" stitching on the pocket is a subtle nod to the hosts last name! Perfection.<br />
<br />
When the denim dress code came up in conversation with my client I immediately thought that this might be another opportunity to revive a job from the past. A few years back I created another<a href="http://kimgrantink.blogspot.com/2010/09/teenagers-and-their-cell-phones.html" target="_blank"> jeans pocket invitation</a> for a teen's party.Now I'm wanting to plan my own party and use this idea once again.Kimhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07746815382984092046noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4502804932628640248.post-12596663729598558202016-01-08T15:38:00.002-08:002016-04-06T14:02:57.639-07:00Navy Blue and Gold Wedding Invitations<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The bride is a US Navy Nurse. Could that be why she loves the navy, gold and white combo? All I know is I love it too so this was a pleasure to create. The gold embroidery floss ties around the navy wrap and the RSVP and "The Particulars" are tucked behind. Clean, simple, yet so elegant.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Pink champagne? You bet. But also grapefruit juice Mimosas (yummmmm) were served at this darling bridal shower. Beyond the party being a brunch, this client/friend wasn't sure of the theme she wanted to go with so we had an amusing time bouncing ideas off each other. I ran across a photo of a pink grapefruit mimosa and that got me thinking... and thinking. And knowing the hostess/client/friend has lots of black accessories to decorate with, this black and white check ribbon amongst my rolls added a fun twist on a classic black/white/pink color theme. Throw in yards of black and white checks for here, there and everywhere, a black bottle split of champagne for each guest and yummy food, and this gal pulled together a charming party!</span>Kimhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07746815382984092046noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4502804932628640248.post-77608975316327001372015-10-16T12:43:00.000-07:002016-03-22T18:53:36.332-07:00A Random Party and a Random Invitation<br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Sometimes I look for an excuse to throw a party but this early fall party was a request of my daughter's. She and her husband were going to be in town visiting from Denver and she had just turned the big 3-0. Of course we'll have a party! </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Paper Source had a screen-printed paper that I couldn't resist earlier in the summer, a pink and red pennant bunting print, so that became the theme for the party and the paper I used for the invitation. I couldn't figure out exactly what I wanted the invitation to say, so... well... I just wrote the words like I was leaving a voicemail message and then ended with the date-time-place-rsvp stuff. Casual and fun, the invitation and the party!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">A logo that included an antler is how this wedding suite started. The couples logo combined with natural papers throughout set the tone for this lovely wedding in Bigfork, Montana. Sometimes I fall in love with a paper and right now it's the Envelopments Barque papers. Unusual and rustic and perfect for this wedding.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">"Mistwood" actually is the name of the residence where this couple's baby shower took place. So turning it into "Camp Mistwood" was an easy decision! The wood grain paper, <i>Pecan Barque</i>, from Envelopments added the perfect rustic touch in the envelope as well as on the invitation itself. And a few pine needles added that touch of nature to complete the package!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">This Birthday Gal is the active type. Apparently REALLY active! So the celebration will have a touch of that "get out there and go!" with the party-ers going on a bike ride before the serious celebrating begins later in the day. Blue and aqua ink with some kraft paper for a touch of casual beachy sand gives the feel for their afternoon ride along the coast.</span>Kimhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07746815382984092046noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4502804932628640248.post-26912083134267820052015-01-04T21:00:00.000-08:002015-01-27T13:23:49.887-08:00Wrapping up Christmas<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">"Brown paper packages tied up with string" were my favorite wrapping thing this year. And printing on old paperback book pages to create the letters for the name bunting was quick too. Some packages had red velvet ribbon simply tied in a square knot, some had a red and green plaid ribbon, and a few had a burlap ribbon with a Christmas-y print on it. All were wrapped in brown paper, of course!</span>Kimhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07746815382984092046noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4502804932628640248.post-73866052055714357572014-11-10T12:46:00.000-08:002016-01-30T16:11:19.385-08:00Birthday Brunch with an Equestrian Touch<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">We have to celebrate the big ones. You know, the ones that end in "0". This birthday brunch for my dear friend Peggy was <i>beyond</i> fun for me to create, and then to pull off, with another dear friend, Susan, and Peggy's daughter Courtney. An old photo of Peggy on her pony and the colors rust, bronze, peach, ivory and green was used for the invitation. It set the tone for the party. I tried to use leather and wood containers as much as possible and oh those velvety rust magnolia leaves I found for the flower arrangements was perfect! I'm a wanna-be florist so I had a grand day with calla lilies, chrysanthemums, roses, pods and eucalyptus branches. One arrangement I wrapped in brown leather belts to give the look of a horse halter and reins.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Here are just some of the paper and floral details of the fete. My favorite part was the BYO- Build Your Own Bloody Mary <span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">B</span>ar. Even bacon was included in the array of fixin's! Another thing that Peggy loves is a good crossword puzzle. So with a lot of "all about Peggy" clues and answers assistance from Courtney and Susan I printed up a crossword puzzle that Peggy's guests worked on while eating. At the end Peggy gave all the answers to the clues, which involved some explanations. "Now what was your one criminal activity?" hee hee! </span>Kimhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07746815382984092046noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4502804932628640248.post-15104515661136596202014-10-03T12:04:00.000-07:002014-10-03T12:04:17.960-07:00Swirly, Floral Invitation that's Luscious<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><a href="http://www.casadeamparo.org/" target="_blank">Casa de Amparo</a> is a wonderful organization that my husband and I heartily support. Their big gala, The Crystal Ball is coming up in November and they have a special pre-event party for their generous patrons. I've been able to create the invitation for this party again this year. These papers from Envelopments make me look good! This lovely Florentine has a playful side to it and the shimmer adds a touch of elegance.</span><br />

I shared <a href="http://kimgrantink.blogspot.com/2014/04/wine-not-birthday-party-theme.html" target="_blank">the save-the-date</a> for this four-day gathering earlier. This is the invitation that includes the details and activities for each day as well as the RSVP card (it's a loooooong one!) and RSVP envelope. Wine drop stains and a wine stain style logo let the invitees know that clearly there will be wine tasting... and drinking.

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">It's a bit difficult to design a logo when you haven't been given many "wants" from a client. Other than telling me that she liked a couple casual fonts I really had nowhere to start. Oh, except to have the design look like the tagline "making space for your life". What on earth does that look like? I don't know. Do you?</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">She's a professional organizer so the file folder and the sketched boxes would be things she deals with on a regular basis. Do you like that corrugated cardboard underline? Yep, upper right logo. She's had her hands on plenty of cardboard boxes over the years. And those cherries? Well, "life is a bowl of cherries" so that's the playful reason for those! </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">A diaper baby shower invitation is just so darn cute. This mother-to-be saw the <a href="http://kimgrantink.blogspot.com/2013/09/mommy-to-bee-baby-shower.html" target="_blank">"Bee" themed one</a> that I did and asked for a hot pink bow instead of the bee. Hello! It's a girl so we might as well embrace the pinkness! and all those big bows that little cutie will be wearing. And she wanted polka dots too. Personally, I like the damask and polka dot combo so I carried it out through all the other paper party details.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">With a focus on the honeymoon on St. Lucia in the Caribbean this bridal shower brunch went "beachy"! It can be difficult to shower a bride with gifts in San Diego when after the wedding the bride and groom will be living in London. How much would it cost to ship all those kitchen gifts? A boatload, I'm sure. So this shower focused on the honeymoon and the things this bride might be packing in her suitcase and also packing the "honeyfund" with some extra bucks. St. Lucia means aqua blue waters and pretty sunsets in peachy shades so that set the color theme. The aqua string gives a nod to a fishing net as well as "tying the knot"! Ahhhh, someone bring me a mimosa! </span>Kimhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07746815382984092046noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4502804932628640248.post-24078299198895803702014-05-19T15:47:00.001-07:002014-12-01T08:06:51.396-08:00Feather the Nest... a Baby Shower<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">A different theme for a baby shower, that's what my daughter was looking for as we planned this bash for her BFF Kendall. Feathers, twigs, wooden boxes, and of course nests! The invitation was done in moss green and khaki papers with moss green twine and a real feather. The feather printed paper I used as an envelope liner was a great find at Paper Source</span>.<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"> It had a rustic, natural feel to it that lent itself to the theme of the shower. And that is what the feel of the baby's room is as well. The mom-and-dad-to-be have got the cutest nursery waiting for their little bundle. Neutral colors, gray and khaki, are the backdrop but the coolest thing is it even has a teepee in it! I'm in love with this twist on feathering a baby's nest.</span> Kimhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07746815382984092046noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4502804932628640248.post-68696916412180052012014-05-14T09:01:00.000-07:002014-05-14T09:01:43.246-07:00Rehearsal Dinner Chalkboard Invitation<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">She loves peonies. Pink ones as a matter of fact. So that's where we started with this 80th birthday invitation that includes a shimmery green background paper to compliment the shades of green in the watercolor. She's a pretty hip grandma so a playful font was chosen for her. You go Gail!</span>Kimhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07746815382984092046noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4502804932628640248.post-85232933628414053142014-04-13T16:59:00.000-07:002014-04-13T16:59:36.112-07:00Wine Not?

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">She's turning 50. He's turning 60. So "Wine Not?" do it up right in the Napa Valley wine country. It will be the perfect setting for four full days of recreation, wine tasting and celebrating this couple and their BIG birthdays. <i>Rustic</i> and <i>playful</i> were two words that this client used to describe the vibe she wanted in a save-the-date. A corkscrew in a logo and wine drop stains bring in the event location and theme even more. The formal invitation is coming soon!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Spring will have just sprung when this bridal shower happens next month. The pretty peach tones with just a touch of pink were chosen because not only does the bride like peach (one of her wedding colors) but the lovely home where the shower will be held has white and orange decor. What a beautiful backdrop for all the lovelies that will be in attendance!</span>Kimhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07746815382984092046noreply@blogger.com1
