About Mrs. Apple Cider

This just came through my email from the awesome Etsy newsletter. The Etsy Shop of Artful Beginnings creates amazing silkscreen printed invites, save the dates, and more. What a fun idea! It is making me rack my brain for ways to incorporate her awesome work.

She does invitations, too. I really like the idea! What a great keepsake. And they are printed on earth-friendly linen.

I love these “save the dates”. I like the design and the uniqueness!

What do you think of doing something like this for your programs? Not only would it be a keepsake, but then when everyone tears up, they have something to dry their tears! ;) Check out the Etsy Shop. The prices are pretty reasonable. The sets start at $110 for 25 pieces including: 25 hankies edged with shimmer paint, 25 pocket folders, accented with shimmer paint, and 25 A2 sized envelopes.

Thank you for writing about my silk invites and hankies - I am honored! They are actually digitally printed with inks from an inkjet printer on specially prepared fabrics, not silkscreened, so there is no “feel” to the fabrics, so I can customize them at will, one hankie at a time.

Love the Weddingbee!

Very nice! I’m doing my Save the Dates out of a linoleum cut and printing those by hand on Arches BFK printmaking paper. So in a way, they are keepsakes because they are still prints! :-D
