Phillipa + John {invite, rsvp and extra info}

I LOVED designing this set of stationery for our good friends Phil + John. When Phil said they were having a TopKåta tent at their reception, I nearly fell off my chair with excitement!!

So this became the concept behind the design of the wedding stationery.

Phil had seen some invites that had a timeline on them and wanted it incorporated into the design. Was a great way to add in a bit more illustration.

I also really love the colours. The rich plum and deep purples are really different from anything I have designed lately.

Phil and Johns fabulous day was about a month ago now and I cannot wait to see the photos.

Jess + Kyle {invite}

Blogs have been a little few and far between of late. I have been working on heaps of gorgeous designs, and looking forward to sharing them with you.

Jess + Kyle are getting married in the stunning Bay of Islands in two weeks time! Unfortunately we can't go as we have a little one due to arrive any day. Lucky it is something that good that is keeping us from going. I designed Jess + Kyle's save the date a little while ago, and we kept with this look and feel for the rest of the stationery.

I have recently finished all the others bits and pieces that will be part of their big day. I cannot wait to share these with you after these two lovelies say "we do".

So INLOVE with metallic copper at the moment. Cannot get enough of it. Here is a a collection of all things copper to make your wedding day shimmer.

Works beautifully with lilacs, berries, blush and dusty greens.

• Love these copper goblets, and they look fabulous with a hint of lilac
• A wreath of greenery for each place setting, with a copper name tag
• Hanging pot plant with a delicious berry and lavender coloured flowers
• Great idea for table place names
• A simple stripe of copper makes for an elegant cake
• Gorgeous copper headpiece
• This yummy bouquet looks so good with the flowing ribbons
• Stunning bridesmaid dress
• Copper and succulents, the perfect match
• Beautiful colour combo for wedding stationery

Mel + Todd {real wedding}

As we launch into a brand new wedding season, I thought I would show you this gorgeous one from the end of the last season. It was in April in the Hawke's Bay, just as all the leaves were turning golden. This became a real inspiration for the styling of the wedding.

All the photos are by the amazing Meredith Lord Photography, the styling and stationery by The Blushing Teacup and the gorgeous flowers by Lushka.

ENJOY xx

Tina + Alistair {wedding invite + RSVP}

When a Scottish guy meets a Greek girl and decide to get married, it makes sense to incorporate both of these backgrounds in their wedding stationery.

Here is what I came up with for Tina and Al who have been an absolute pleasure to work with.

I received the most loveliest email back once they had them printed. It said:

"Stace they are the best thing we have ever seen!! We LOVE them"

It made my day!

These two tie the knot next weekend in Melbourne and I wish them all the best for their big day and their exciting future.

August {thank you card}

This little man is one of my favourite little people. With two very talented parents who love art and music, he is destined for great things. He might even be a skipping rope champion. Love him so much!!

Here is what I designed for his thank you cards.

He is a great model also.

Leanne + Glen {wedding invite}

It has been a loooooong time since my last blog. And I have been working on so many projects that I need to share. But thought I would put this one up first.

This was my first invite I have designed using white digital printing. Yeap you can actually do this these days. You can't even imagine my excitement when I discovered my favourite local printer Paper Studio at The Copy Company has one of these printers.

Here is the final piece. Perfect for a rustic farm wedding.

If you need any stationery for your next event, please get in touch.

LOVE xx
