Save the Date: Alice In Wonderland Inspired

1.26.2012

If you are a "liker" of Sincerely Yours Paper on Facebook, then you've heard me squeal comments about this Save the Date throughout the design process.  It has been so. much. fun to create!  Especially with Miss Sarah Edwards giving me freedom to follow my creative instincts! {Three cheers for Creative Freedom!}

In Sarah's design consultation, she shared with me that her theme was inspired by Alice in Wonderland.  But rather than going the route of whimsical/crazy-train, we steered more in the direction of modern-storybook with vintage "Alice" graphics and a combination of simple, clean typefaces to reflect the wedding's setting at the charming Pratt Place Inn and Barn. And during the design process, to give this Save the Date announcement a little modern punch, I incorporated a geometric quatrefoil pattern.  A punch of modern pattern in deep cobalt.  Accents in "Alice" blue. Warm ivories and greige graphics.  A sepia-toned map of Wonderland.  And a custom-designed pocket watch graphic with hands set on 5:12...the wedding date!  This Save the Date is a "wonder" full dream come true! {wink}

And while you've got your looking glass handy, peek over at the new Weddings in Arkansas blog {here} where sweet Laura asked me to post a little industry inspiration!  See this Save the Date and a few other SYP  lovelies on Arkansas' newest online wedding resource! And brides, be sure to follow them on Pinterest and pick up their beautifully-produced magazine for a wealth of wedding ideas! {Thank you, Laura, for inviting me to be a part! xo}
