Succulent Wedding Invitation in Kraft Pouch

By Debisementelli @letterheadgirl

What a joy to create this gorgeous and unique invitation suite for Heather Clark using my

Dom Loves Mary Total Design font.

This could easily be done as a DIY invitation.

The heart of the suite was the invitation with a beautiful picture of a succulent obtained from istockphoto.com.

All of the paper products came from Marsupial Papers

The invitation, as well as the Reply post card, is printed on Ivory Sand card stock then backed with a Driftwood Shimmer paper using double-backed tape.

(You can even order the backers pre-cut!)

This is then attached to a 5″ x7 ” Kraft Koala pouch.

I used my Dom Loves Mary Script and Text fonts as well as my Dom Loves Mary flourishes and a selection of my DLM Add-On Words like: ‘Please deliver to’, with’, ‘of’, ‘at’, ‘in the’, ‘at the’ and ”

to create an elegant hand lettered look.

That’s all included in the Total Design Package.

We were fortunate to find the apple stamps for the post cards to tie in with the organic feel.

While two double rose wedding stamps were used on the envelope.

(Rose stamps not shown in photo. This sample was photographed before exact mailing costs were known.)

 The succulent closures were printed on Ivory Sand then cut out using a creative memories tool and attached to the pouch with double-backed tape leaving just enough room to insert the pouch tip underneath.

I am always thrilled when I get the opportunity to match any of my fonts with hand lettering.

The custom ivory color really popped on the Kraft envelopes.

If you’re not a calligrapher or don’t have it in your budget you could use a white ink pen to address the envelopes.

Voila!!  You have a custom look for less.

This was a joy to create for the lovely bride and groom.

I wish Heather and Brandon a life filled with happiness!

As always, my calligraphy fonts, Dom Loves Mary and Belluccia are available for purchase here.
