Here's a little blast from the recent past... some seriously lovely invitations we did for my Little Thanksgiving party back in November. Every project that we do is custom, including the invitations we design for ourselves. These include a stitched linen pocket, double thick chipboard & pearlized cardstock. We love this diecut shape, simple details and the art we created featuring the deer head and wreath. It felt festive, rustic and sophisticated all at the same time. We wanted these invitations to be about the materials, and about the experience of receiving them in the mail, like a special gift, so we kept the design minimal. The front reads love one another, give thanks together, and the love one another part references a sign that hangs in our kitchen. It was in my parents' house growing up, and my grandparents' house before that. When Ben and I got married last year, it was given to us as a gift. I am a person that believes very strongly in showing love to those around you and for giving thanks with and for them. Little Thanksgiving is an opportunity to do that with friends and neighbors each year. We usually host it a week or two before actual Thanksgiving. It helps get everyone in the cooking and holiday spirit!
