spring cleaning!

Monday, February 22nd, 2010

Spring cleaning around The Uncommon Bride started a little early this year. The result is that we’ve added 11 very fun petal envelopes to the bargain section of the website.

The petal envelopes are 5.5″ square, when closed, and fit into a 5.75″ square envelope. They will only be available until the existing stock is gone…so act fast.

The bargains section also has takeout containers, tins, envelopes, frosted purses and more.

An uncommonly perfect destination invitation

For a destination wedding, or any wedding with many out of town guests, an invitation style with a pouch to hold all the additional details is the perfect choice. Our newest pouch design invitation, the olivia, is great for just such an event.

Although weddings are often the first time people buy personalized invitations and cards, there are many other great events in life that deserve fun stationery.

The next holiday coming up is Valentine’s Day, so we are going to show you how to take our Thank You DIY Kit and turn it into a Valentine. Here is a simple design that we did up for my daughter to hand out to her classmates. She personalized the inside with her name using a gel pen. The do-it-yourself kits could also be used for birthday party or shower invitations, baby announcements and other holidays.
