i made such an exciting discovery today (at least for me!!)
i've been aware of couture maps for some time now and i just assumed that the site contained everything custom-made by stephannie barba ... well, i was wrong! i don't remember how i found this but i stumbled upon miss barba's main site today!! take a look! she creates sooo many different things - social stationary, invitations, programs, satd's, monogram designs, table number signs, coaster designs ... the list goes on and on ... i practically devoured the site, wanting to take it all in at once. :o) and then it got me thinking, since i'm already making my own map in this style, maybe i could take it a step further and create my own SATD's, invitations and possibly even programs? here's some of the things i found that made my inspirational wheels start turning:
a fun, simple SATD.

and this is the pocket-style envelope i'm thinking about putting the envelope, rsvp and map in. anyone know what type of ribbon/string this is called? i'm loving it!!!

and yet, another lovely program!

when i saw this, i started thinking a donation would be a nice gesture but i still really want to give my guests something tangible, even if it is just a cutely-wrapped candy of some sort.



























I think it is baker's twine. martha sells this :)
