random musings and things that tickle my fancy

Remember when I won that contest on Project Wedding? Bird and Banner came up with the sweetest design for us. I would have posted these sooner, but wanted to wait until I had actually sent them out to our friends and family! These postcards were letterpressed by Spark Paper (don’t they have the cutest website?!) on wood veneer. I love the way they turned out!

I love the handlettering and crosshatch detail in the hearts.

Incidentally, these cards received a little shout-out on one of my favorite blogs awhile back – Oh So Beautiful Paper :)

I have entered A LOT of wedding-related giveaways over the course of our engagement, and up to this point, I haven’t won any. That didn’t stop me from entering more and I’m glad it didn’t, because apparently today is my lucky day! I just got an email from Jeannie over at Project Wedding that I won 100 custom notecards and envelopes from Bird and Banner! The crazy thing is that this has been their most popular contest to date. I am so unbelievably excited; I still have goosebumps! Of all the giveaways to win, I am so thrilled at this one because Bird and Banner creates incredibly unique and AMAZING stationery. I love that their work has handcrafted elements and each piece is reflective of the couple. Here are some of my favorites from their portfolio:
