Finished work
July 9, 2015 in Calligraphy, Design, Weddings
Way back in 2014, at the end of summer, I was asked by wedding planner NINA weddings to design a stationery suite for one of her couples. She was looking for calligraphy and watercolor invitations, a map of the area, menu cards, place cards, and a program of the day. It was super short notice and I was pretty far in my pregnancy, but I really liked to work with her on this project.
And as I was working on this project and thinking: it might be time to take some pregnancy-leave after this, I got a request from Bloom Wedding, for another watercolor and calligraphy stationery suite, paired with gold lined envelopes with calligraphy addressing. This couple wanted to send their save the dates a year before their destination wedding in Spain. And because I really really wanted to do this, I squeezed it in and finished it right in time before the baby arrived!
Something else I finished just in time was the stationery for Bloom Wedding’s Whimsical Wedding Shoot.
After this I could sit back, put my feet up, knit some baby sweaters and toys and wait. O how I loved those crazy busy weeks and how hard it was to do nothing and count the days. And how I now cannot even remember what it was like to be able to do nothing. Every minute that baby sleeps needs to be spent well now!
