More Cowbell!

More Cowbell!

I’ve got a fever, and the only prescription is…

More Moo Cards! (Get it, moo… cowbell, eh?)

I love how our Mini Moo cards promoting our wedding website turned out. We did not incorporate pictures in our save-the-dates because my parents had already sent a photo in their engagement party invitations… aaand we didn’t have our e-session yet. But I had to show off our new engagement pictures somehow…

Mr. T punched a heart-shaped hole (using my awesome heart-shaped-hole puncher!!! [Aside: I spent my junior high days analyzing Tori Amos songs and being very serious, and in my mid-twenties I’m obsessing over heart shaped things... is this a normal progression?]).

And I tied the Mini Moos on to the invitations with yellow Divine Twine:

I was a little nervous about our guests’ reactions. Sure it’s cute, but I’ve basically branded our wedding (with hearts, of course) and I’m hocking our website with a business card.

Oddly enough, this little Moo is the first thing they talk about when they compliment our invitation suite!! I haven’t checked our website traffic to see if the cards are actually working, but at least people like them and maybe they won’t throw them out right away.

How did you incorporate your wedding website and extra information for your guests?

I <3 your invitations! That was a vitual heart there in case you missed it. Seriously though, they look fantastic! I love the Mini Moo’s and I love the way you attached them to the invitation. I don’t think it’s overdone hearts in any way. They look awesome!

1. These are ridiculously cute
2. OMG I was obsessed with Tori too. Like, oversized Tori Amos t-shirts down to my knees belting out Boys for Pele on a regular basis.

@nbblondie: Yay! Bee chain-reaction. Pin Cushion put me over the edge to “must have.”

I’m a big lover of incorporating the “heart” into weddings. After designing all the randomness for our wedding I’ve become OBSESSED with hearts. I used them way to often. They are my fav. Who know such a simple little icon could be so amazing.

Keep the “heart” alive!!!

BTW love the Moo cards… I’ve been meaning to get my hands on some Moo cards.
