But, since I didn’t want to leave you empty handed, I thought that I would post this adorable inspiration board that I received from one of our readers, Martha.

When I was a kid, red was my very favorite color. I think someone once told me that if your favorite color was red, you were a naturally fiery person. And, I really wanted to be a fiery person. My favorite color, now, is pink. I wonder what that says about me.

My friend Lysa, over at Demby & Solomon, emailed me a few pictures of her latest custom wedding invitations. They are so gorgeous, I just had to share them with you…

Most of her work is letterpressed, though because she is a custom studio, she can really work with whatever printing method the design calls for. Lysa also offers all of the bells and whistles including calligraphy, hand-lined envelopes, custom-designed...
