Mrs. Crab Cake, Columbus, GA Age and Occupation: 25, Registered Nurse Fiance's Age and Occupation: 31, Director of Education and Living History for a museum Engagement Date: April 6, 2008 Wedding Date: June, 2009 Blogging Since: November 26, 2008 Venue: Holy Family Catholic Church, reception: National Infantry Museum About Me: I'm a perfectionist trying to balance two jobs, motherhood, my craft obsession, and wedding planning. I am obsessed with all things wedding, especially creative ideas for saving money and DIY projects. A Southern Belle at heart, I love anything southern, especially sweet tea, grits, afternoon thunder storms, crab cakes, and good old Southern hospitality. Mr. Crab Cake and I are planning a vintage inspired wedding with tons of Southern flare (can y'all say that with a thick Southern drawl?).

While my wedding isn’t maybe the most ecologically friendly event ever (and certainly not here!), I can definitely appreciate, and sometimes participate, in the green movement. Especially when it’s cute! For those of you who still aren’t a Daily Candy follower, well, you should be.

Here’s the cute freebie that showed up in my inbox this am.

The designers wanted to come up with a font that saved ink, removed as much of the letter as they could, and still maintain readability.

I’ve Fallen for a Font!

October 20th, 2008 @ 3:31 pm by Mrs. Taffy

Lately I have been all typed out!

I can’t stop thinking about invitations, escort cards, menus, and wedding signage in general. It was becoming really difficult to imagine all of these details without having a specific font in mind. I knew that I wanted something feminine, with a vintage touch. Our Save the Date font, Helvetica, while lovely, just wasn’t going to do it for me.

This weekend, a promo booklet from Veer made its way into our mailbox. I flipped through it excitedly… although the lack of a font had been bugging me, it was one of those wedding things that I kept forgetting to take care of.

Lo and behold, our soon to be wedding font was right in front of me! May I present to you- Kon Tiki Enchanted:

New Inspiration From A Soon-To-Be Forgotten Friend

December 16th, 2007 @ 3:25 pm by Mrs. Cupcake

One of my favorite magazines is Martha Stewart’s Blueprint. Its tagline is “Design Your Life” and it is identified as “The fresh, fun guide to personal style.” That it is, Martha; that it is!

For a while I was reading/trying to get into Martha Stewart Living, but it was just a little too far beyond where I am in my life. As much as it was chock full of great ideas for entertaining, organizing, and cooking, I would always come away from it feeling a bit inadequate. I can’t cook all that stuff! (My oven is like 9″ wide and there is no window or light so I can’t even see what I’m cooking most of the time.) I can’t afford all that stuff to organize my laundry room! Heck, I don’t even HAVE a laundry room! It was nice to ponder and dream about someday having a summer house and a craft room and an entire built-in shelf system completely devoted to organizing my personal photos, but it just wasn’t practical or attainable for my 27-year-old-still-grasping-the-concept-of-adulthood self.

Blueprint is so much more my speed and style. It has that magical Martha touch with a bit more of a youthful sensibility to it. Unfortunately, it was just announced that this publication will soon be a distant memory, as it has only one issue left I found this news via Perfect Bound, one of my favorite blogs, and nearly cried.

Feeling A Font Out…

Feeling A Font Out... : wedding fonts monterey Z121138525 z121138525

I blogged quite awhile ago about one of my favorite fonts ever, Burgues Script, and how lovely it is for Weddings. Well, I recently acquired a new font by the same designer that would be uber-lovely to use for celebrations as well, especially for those vintage-inspired fetes! This time around, it’s Feel Script!
