Ms. Stripes, Los Angeles Age and Occupation: 29, Costume Designer/Stylist Fiancee's Age and Occupation: 29, Chef Engagement Date: June 23, 2009 Wedding Date: September 2010 Venue: Heritage Square Museum About Me: I’m a type A creative with a messy streak, a loud mouth, and an uncanny knack for combining clashing patterns. I can usually be found with my nose in a book, my feet (or at least my toes) on the ground, my head in the clouds, and my arm around the prettiest girl you ever saw- aka Fiancee Stripes. Together we’re planning a FUN vintage/modern French carnival wedding extravaganza and rockin’ dance party on a dime. (Say that three times fast!) Good coffee, long lists, Uniball pens, and my iPhone keep me sane, and making art, making trouble, and making out keep me happy! I love urban adventures, bike rides that end with afternoon drinks, breakfast for dinner, beautiful light, photography, travel, my furry family, and of course, my beautiful fiancee! I’m super excited to be here and can’t wait to share all our adventures as we craft a joyful, budget-friendly, design-savvy and all-around AWESOME wedding!

LOVE this! Our second-choice venue had a lot of blue accents and we would’ve done something very similar to this board if we’d chosen that place.

Those shoes are LOVE. And I love the Sarah Seven dress (which I can now identify on sight. Addicted much?)

How hilarious! I just made my first inspiration board yesterday :) Blue (your wonderful cobalt blue actually) is one of our wedding colors–my board was not nearly as successful in getting that across. I especially love the little blue bottle in the middle!

That’s my color! I have been in love with cobalt since forever, so when Mr. Library asked for blue as a wedding color, I knew we had to do it!

Don’t get me started about loving making boards!!! I do it when I get bored or very inspired haha. I like to use the collage feature on Picasa (free software from Google). Just make a folder on your hard drive of all the pictures you want to use, Picasa will recognize that folder automatically, and then click “create collage” at the top of the folder and voila!

I love that color blue! We almost did cobalt blue and yellow, and this makes me reconsider!

I like blue also. I am using a cornflower blue for my wedding. And I just love it! I also went to a wedding expo today and they didn’t hardly show anything blue!
