Wedding Blog
I’m slowly writing out our thank you cards and making a few special ones for our close family members and for the ones who couldn’t make it out to Philadelphia. I purchased some specialty japanese paper at Amoeba Art Shop and chocolate colored scalloped cards from Allegheny Art Company in Jenkintown, Pennsylvania. I printed out a few photos and cropped them to the appropriate size for the card. I stamped and embossed “Merci” on leftover pieces of gold paper from our wedding programs.
I experimented with this purple and gold design, but I think I prefer the red and gold design more.
To make our thank you cards a little more special, I added stamps we bought during our honeymoon in Paris.
For some of the thank you cards, I added another photo to the inner envelope and stamped “Bonjour” in gold.
I created about 10 of these cards and I just can’t make anymore of the same design. Perhaps I have a touch of ADHD or something, I just can’t work like an assembly line anymore! I plan to create a few more using my gocco kit in a few days…

These are stunning Mrs. Bell Pepper! I love the added touch of the Musee D’Orsay stamps!
I was about to say “wow those are stunning mrs. bell pepper” — then I saw Miss Petunia’s response! Too funny, but I still say “WOW!”
And I love the d’orsay stamps too. That was my favorite place in all of Paris. I hope to travel there with my (soon to be) husband someday. I went with my father as a high school graduation gift for spring break my 1st year of college. It was a wonderful experience.
Amazing Photograph of you two!
aww! so pretty! i love stamps and i love paris! the red & gold one looks so elegant. =)
i think the red works so well because it picks up the awesome red wall in your picture! these are thank you cards people will keep forever!
