One of my favorite projects was our invites. It took me a while and many discarded design ideas to get to the end result, but I was really happy with them. We got tons of compliments from recipients and I like that they are very us (or at least very me, I don’t think Mr. MB cared one bit). They were also the thing I had the most control over, go figure. Hope you like ’em.

They all went out in the mail Saturday, and it’s such a great weight off my shoulders.
For our names, I used the Ornatique font, for the invite text I used Harrington, and for the address labels, I used Belshaw. All fonts are from Abstract Fonts. The flowers were drawn with gel pens and markers, and the stitching was done on muslin and then both images were scanned in and merged together in Photoshop. The RSVP ornate frame is a brush from BrushKing (I think it was this brush set). And the RSVP card used that background from BittBox that I liked.
Mr. Moonbeam even got in on the action. He helped wrap the trace paper belly bands and attached some address labels.
Look at that intensity!
Your invitations were so lovely! I love all the flowers and font!
Love them! The design is amazing! What is your overall theme?
This was probably my favorite post of yours, too. I’m in love with your invites! 
I love your invitations!! They definitely show a lot of hard work! Good JOB!!
I still have a crush on these invites…I can’t believe I almost forgot about how much I like them!

Mrs. Moonbeam, Los Angeles/San Antonio Age and Occupation: 26, Intern Architect Fiance's Age and Occupation: 26, Studio Analyst, aspiring Screenwriter Engagement Date: May 20, 2009 Wedding Date: November 2009 Venue: Our Lady of Grace Catholic Church (LaCoste, TX) and Mary Gray Events Center (Castroville, TX) About Me: I was born and raised in Texas, but after college I moved to Seattle for a couple of years and loved it. Then I followed my beau out here to LA and we're getting settled in. I've been making things since I can remember. I was raised by crafters. I love to sew, draw, paint, build, cook, bake (anything with a tangible end result is fair game). In that same spirit, I've been hosting since I was old enough to cook and set a fancy table. I kind of take after my grandmother, who believes that your morning OJ always tastes better out of the good crystal.
