Lush stationery!

Well, its been a very busy time for me. My weddings for the year have finished and its been a period of intensive album design for my fab clients! The deadline for Christmas is this weekend so it was high pressure but I'm happy to say the designs are gorgeous and the albums will be even more gorgeous - can't wait to see them!
Anyway, apart from that I've also been busy designing a new website which will be unveiled in December. I'm very excited about it but don't want to say too much at this time. It does involve a lot of work and I hope I can get it all done and launched this year - I'll Blog about it nearer the time of course.
My lovely friend Emma, who owns www.twenty-seven.co.uk and makes the most delicious wedding stationery has also been busy making a new website. She felt her current site wasn't making the most of her designs and wanted a more visual website where her brides and grooms could see just how beautiful and unique her work was. She has also been beavering away designing new ranges to add to her current portfolio so it made sense that I photographed everything for her new website so we had a day together a couple of weeks ago photographing all her new stuff. I felt very privileged to be the first to see her new designs and I was wowed when I saw what she had come up with! Not only has she built on the success of the signature style of her stationery, she has come up with all sorts of little extras to make the day look even more special.
I am really loving the sweetie jars with the gorgeous little tags round them...after all the horror stories about chocolate fountains, sweetie bars are big news at weddings right now. Guests just can't resist a flump or a Vimto lolly you know! http://www.moodflowers.com/ do an amazing colour coordinated sweetie bar. I've seen one in pinks and purples and it was fabulous. Really well done and visually stunning. I think the little favour jars are a fab idea too and would look gorgeous on any table. And check out the little Lego guy on top of the name card - so original!
Well, I'm so so pleased for Emma and wish her all the best with her new website and her new designs. I have posted some of my favourite pieces below and hope they inspire and excite you as much as they did me! Please visit her at http://www.twenty-seven.co.uk/
