“Prescription for Love” Bridal Shower

A while back I was asked to design a prescription pad invitation for a bridal shower. This time, however, that “prescription for love” would have more meaning for me. My sister is the bride-to-be!

Taking my cue from the phrase “something blue” and “prescription for love,” I designed and created several befitting toppers to use on the cake and centerpieces. Since the cake was going to be blue and white, I went with silver glitter for the cake toppers. An easy alternative for a bit of pop and bling without going overboard.

The other toppers I did in blue and used in the centerpieces. These were so easy. The hardest part was picking a favorite picture of the couple. But once it was done, we made several copies to size and inserted them into the vases. Then white silk roses were cut so they kissed the top of the vases and then we inserted the Rx (which by the way is wood).

Centered atop a circular mirror on a royal blue organza runner, the centerpiece was a beautiful reminder of the love being celebrated. We finished off the table with silver chargers and dressed the chairs with bands in royal blue.

Each table had a prescription card to go along with the theme of the shower.

Instead of seating the bride-to-be at the table with guests, we opted to give her a front seat – solo. But it was no ordinary seat. Her table, outfitted in royal blue organza with silver bling, sat in front of a fabulous backdrop of silver sequins and billowing white drapery.

The backdrop highlighted the glow on the bride-to-be’s face or maybe it was a blush after seeing the racy gift bags created for the shower. No explanation necessary, but a great muse for the “prescription for Date Night” each guest was asked to offer.

One additional thing that added a special touch to this shower was projecting the “Prescription for Love” on the wall behind the cake. It was just another way for us to show my sister some love.

What’s your prescription of love when planning events for family?

I was asked to design a prescription pad invitation for a bridal shower along with a custom logo design to be used on the bride to be's stationery. After designing the invitation and receiving many requests for it, I took it a step further and designed an entire printable set. For this shower I chose to use colors of turquoise, hot pink, pink, white and orange. Since I work in the medical field it was fun and easy do this shower theme. 

Hodwy everyone!

I was apart of a Mini Favor Box Challenge with Pamela Smerker Designs. The challenge was to decorate these cute mini favor boxes and to add little goodies to them. I must say that this was definitely a challenege because the boxes were smaller than what I am use to using and the problem I was running into was finding something different and useful that could go in them besides candy. 

When I think of party favors I like to give away things that people can actually use and not something that will get tossed in the trash or sat in the fridge or on a shelf and forgotten about. 

So with the deadline appoaching and I having no clue what to put in these boxes an idea popped into my head! Most women love nail polish and use hand sanitizer so I made a little kit with those two items with personalized lablels.

Baby Shower Theme : "We are tickled Pink down to our Feet"

Bridal Shower Theme with Dasmask Print and Corsets

My client asked me to create her a postcard style bridal shower invite with an old movie theme. This features a moive ticket with a theatre scene in the backgroud. She loved the design.

The front of the card is a bra and the back of the card is a thong panty. I used pink card stock for the base and a patterned paper for the bra and panty. These make cute invites for bridal showers and bachelorette, lingerie or adult toy parties.
