Stinson-Autrey Wedding (May 22, 2011)

HAPPY ONE YEAR ANNIVERSARY, ERIN AND MARTY!

Earlier last year, I had a wonderful wedding planner by the name of Krista Debuhr contact me for one of her clients. We decided on a consult date so I could meet with the couple and discuss wedding stationery for a late spring wedding. After arriving at the consult, to my surprise, the beautiful bride was Erin Stinson. I have known Erin for a few years through a mutual friend, Kisha King Modica, and I was so excited to meet the love of her life, Mardy Autrey.

Erin and Marty wanted an invitation that reflected their love for each other and their close and personal wedding ceremony and reception. The cream, coral, and aqua/turquoise color pallet creates a wonderful combination for a spring wedding. This 5x7 Quartz Jacket with ribbon and front double layered tab is the housing unit for the tri-layered invitation, RSVP postcard, and accommodation card.

Each layer compliments the next, giving each invited guest a taste of what is to come at this anticipated North West Arkansas, July 30th event.

The You of A: Nicholas Glover Graduation from the University of Arkansas

“Do not follow where the path may lead. Go, instead, where there is no path and leave a trail.” Ralph Waldo Emerson

(photo by Beth Marsh Photography)

My little brother, Nicholas Glover, graduated this past weekend from the University of Arkansas. I would like to say, he and I have started a family tradition attending the U of A. What a wonderful school, a wonderful experience, with wonderful memories, and wonderful friends with which to enter the world of life. As we prepared for Nick’s graduation, there was no question that I would design his graduation invitations and thank you cards. I arranged for his senior pictures to be taken on campus by Beth Marsh Photography. I wanted the invitation to represent Nick, a member of Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity Inc. and the U of A, but I didn’t want the invitation to scream red and white, which are the colors of both.

The final creation is a 4x5 Metallic Burnt Sugar metallic Z-card, with a tri-layered invitation, matted picture, and front double layered tab.

After graduation, we celebrated Nick’s achievements with family and friends at Powerhouse Grill.

Oh, The Places You Will Go! GRADUATION INVITATIONS

“You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself any direction you choose. You're on your own. And you know what you know. And YOU are the one who'll decide where to go...” ― Dr. Seuss, Oh, the Places You'll Go!

Over the last month, I have been honored to create several graduation invitations for a few clients:

Clarrisa Purifoy, Masters in Business Administration at the University of Arkansas, Little Rock

Clarrisa contacted FM2Y for an invitation that would scream, I DID IT! Not wanting to go the traditional route of using the schools colors, Clarrisa chose a beautiful and bright arrangement for her announcement.

Jaylan Mason, Harbor High School, Springdale, Arkansas

Jaylan’s mom, Kelly, contacted me after seeing the “plain, boring, and expected” invitations provided by the school. Kelly gave me full creative rights to the invitation project. Knowing Jaylan personally, I knew that she had some great track and field achievements during her years at Harbor High School. The 5x7 tri-layered invitations reflect Harbor High’s school colors and mascot paw and the 2011 font has a letterman, athletic feel.

Team blue or team pink? Tricia and John Currier’s Cupcake and Cocktails Party

I was recently contacted by a 2010 FM2Y couple, John and Tricia Currier, to create a unique cupcake and cocktails invitation for their baby’s gender reveal party. After consulting with Tricia, I wanted to create something that was not expected by her guests. The final creation is a 4x9 double, metallic with a full bleed digital printed layered invitation. The invitation displayed unisex colors that would match the preselected paper goods and decorations. To add an extra little flare, each invitation was embellished with lime green Swarovski crystals on the cocktail. The orange metallic backing and bright metallic green mailing envelopes created a bold, festive vibe for the invited guests.

By the way.....it's a BOY! Congrats John and Tricia!

Stars, Stars, more Stars, and some sports...for our little ALL-STAR

My best friend from high school, Tajuana (I have five BFFs total), had her FIRST BABY in October! And it’s a BOY! I know I am late blogging this, but better late than never. I called Tajuana and asked her, “So chick, what is your theme and colors.“ She goes off on this tangent of All-Star sports but not really sports, but more stars and some sports, as in the Dallas Cowboys, but not really Dallas Cowboys. So, I’m thinking…..Ummmm Okay! After a twenty minute discussion on her theme, she advised me that her husband had recently painted the nursery. I'm thinking, now we are getting somewhere! Baby Trent’s room has been painted khaki, navy, and light blue.

So without her knowing what I was really up to, I started thinking of some creative ways to bring together stars and sports, but not really sports, but not really stars, and some Dallas Cowboys, but not really! LOL! As I created the invitation design over several weeks, leaving it and coming back to it, leaving it and coming back to it, I decided to leave the sports out and concentrate on the stars in different shades and sizes. Over the last ten years, I have grown to love Tajuana and if I don’t know anything else I know that she wanted to keep things SIMPLE but CUTE.

After a few samples, I decided on this one!

A single layered Quartz metallic cardstock with STARS!...adoring the colors of khaki, navy, and powder blue. The invitation was mailed in metallic khaki envelopes that included two navy stars surrounding the return address. Something extremely simple and cute for my best friend’s little All-Star…with SOME stars and SOME sports !

Shhhh….It’s a Surprise!

It has been a busy month in the FM2Y studio! Here are two surprise birthday party invitations that will surely shock these birthday men! This 4x9 black vinyl folded invitation sets the tone for a sleek, stylish night on the town. The front panel is accessorized with double layered cardstock that displays the honoree’s name and initials.

Once opened the handsome metallic Jupiter invitation is matted on metallic textured linen cardstock. The invitation is accompanied by a matching 4x5 metallic textured linen double sided RSVP postcard for guest to return! All enclosed in a 4x9 metallic Jupiter mailing envelope.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This 5x7 triple layered invitation is sure to announce any royal event. The top layer resembles 24kt gold with its shinny metallic luster. The age of the honoree and the surrounding quote gives this invitation a personal touch that is sure to make anyone feel extremely special.

To add a dramatic touch, the invitation is then matted on a black layer to coordinate with the printing and fonts. The last layer is a double side pattern cardstock that displays a royal metallic purple on one side and a gold and purple damask print on the reverse. A 3.5x5 insert card of double layered metallics displayed the special menu that will be prepared for this grand event. The invitation suite was then enclosed in a 5x7 antique gold mailing envelope.
