i'm sorry for a lack of posting this week. things have been wonderfully busy! but i will be back in the swing of things next week as i prepare to leave for my kripalu yoga teacher training.
in the meantime, now that most of my friends and family have received their wedding invitations, i am excited to share them with all of you. first... the envelopes.





we chose ashley osgood to do the calligraphy. (she is incredibly talented and has a unique style that i simply love.)
and then i adorned them with a variety of vintage stamps (butterflies, flowers, birds etc.) that i found on ebay. what do you think?
next week, the actual invitation... stay tuned!
