Sneak a Peek! Here is a little taste of the hand painted rustic elegance <a href="http://www.mypersonalartist.com/">custom wedding invitations </a>design I created for Sydney and Christopher. I love the couple standing in the doorway of the barn. Inside this custom-made booklet style invitation is lovely sparkling blue card stock with an overlay of thick white invitation card boasting their blue wording. On the left inside, outdoor globe lighting strings are hand illustrated to give the guests a glimpse of the venue. I will post more photos on <a href="http://www.mypersonalartist.com/blog/">My Personal Artist Blog</a> very soon.<br />

What a lovely Wednesday! James, my mother Pamela, and I are busy as bees! Right now in the studio, my mother is hand-tailoring these <a href="http://www.mypersonalartist.com/pink-peony-flowers-wedding-invitations-with-pocket-folder.html">peony wedding invitations</a> for Jessica and Benjamin. I am in love with the pink, champagne, and green colors. It reminds me of Spring days!<br />
<br />
The sun is streaming in the studio window and the sky is blue. I've spotted and heard MANY blue jay birds and robins in the area. That can only mean one thing... spring is closer than ever! One more month of snow on the ground, maybe? Until then, I will continue to paint flowers and lose myself in floral invitations and tropical, beach wedding invitations scenes. Ahhh ... I'm in heaven! xo<br />

Recently I've had the great pleasure of creating baby shower invitation designs. I adore this bah bahhhh baby lamb design inspired by the mom-to-be's baby comforter choice from Pottery Barn Baby. Adorable fun.<br />
