beautiful invites! im considering doing a similar look for some diy wedding invites that dont look diy.... do you have any templates for envelope liners??

Chrissy Parkinson on Jun 24, 2009

I did my own invites with pocket folds and this was the most affordable cite I found. They cut anything to the size you need and their shippping/ service is the best out of almost all of the vendors I have dealt with for my wedding. I even got paper for programs. www.paperandmore.com

looooove the stamps! how did you find so many in the same color?

Melinda on Jun 3, 2009

Is that a white inked pen? I'd really love to use black envelopes for my invitations but what I'd use to address them concerns me.

Teresa on May 15, 2009

Perfection, right down to the string, the stamps and the liners. I'm dizzy.

Naushin on May 14, 2009

Love! Especially the liners from vintage wallpaper... awesome detail.

Katie on May 14, 2009

These are beautiful!!!

Allie on May 13, 2009

Gorgeous! I too, LOOOVE the stamps! I have been looking all over but am not sure where & how to use these old stamps. You have to get ones that have never been used right? I also have 120 wedding invitations, will I be able to find enough stamps??? Thank you!

Rustic + whimsical, but still elegant + pretty...great job!

katie on May 13, 2009

OHmy gosh! THESE are too cute and your blog is amazing! i just got married 3 months ago and am STILL obsessed with wedding blogs and ideas. If you don't have any good local stamp stores, where would you suggest finding those types of cute postage stamps? Or do you know any good places in Seattle? Keep up the beautiful work on this blog! simply amazing!!!

Michele on May 13, 2009

This is just so lovely!! I am in awe of the creativity, thoughtfulness and effort that has gone into these ~ they are just gorgeous. As someone not about to get married (unless a very big anniversary sort of counts) I just wish I had friends like this (she said with gentle envy!). And the stamps are too cute......

two brunettes on May 13, 2009

so very pretty I love it! I looove that Martha punch I used it on my wedding invites!

Lilah Paper on May 13, 2009

Very creative and cute! The whole "package" came together just beautifully :)

Melanie on May 13, 2009

i did not read the insert card---i REEEEAAAALLLY like surprises and never spoil them if i can help it but i am cracking up. we have to stop, seriously---there is NO RUSTIC BARN WEDDING HAPPENING. except in secret at the shower. i will say, however, that we final-proofed our invites from Alee and when they are done i seriously think they are going to be AMAZING. and make me very happy i'm doing a fancy affair:) oxox Melanie

Maddy @ the Inspired Bride on May 13, 2009

Katie on May 13, 2009

Thank you for sharing <3

Love the combination of textures in this pretty set! Rachael, I recently purchased a bunch of vintage postage here: http://www.kenmorestamp.com/us-stamp-collecting/Philatelic/3 Hope this helps!

Carolyn, Serendipiy & Spark on May 12, 2009

These are not only stunning but quite possibly the most beautiful shower cards that I have EVER seen! Amazing, thanks for sharing!

Mo on May 12, 2009

Oh my. What a lucky lucky girl. The red and white string is a great idea, as are the stamps and the wallpaper liners! I may just steal them all for my own invites! Um, I'm having a rustic vineyard wedding, do Kristina and Melanie want to help ME plan? ;)

jill thomas on May 12, 2009

This is so charming.

Meg, A Practical Wedding on May 12, 2009

Lovely! Ladies: important question. What *pen* are you using to get this amazing inky whiteness? I belive we've seen it before (achem, Kristina!) xo Meg

Modern Ink Studio on May 12, 2009

GORGEOUS!

RhiannonM on May 12, 2009

These look like the party is going to be one heck of an awesome surprise shindig! So gorgeous!

Laura on May 12, 2009

wow, my wedding invitations don't even look that good.

Rachael on May 12, 2009

Kristina, do you mind passing along the contact information for the stamp shop? We've been looking for similar vintage stamps online, and not having much luck! Many thanks.

100layercake on May 12, 2009

Hi hi. Valeen - The envelopes are from Paper Source too, and the color is called Kraft (i think). Chris - The font used for "please bring" is Bickham Script. xo Kristina

chris :: c is for charmed on May 12, 2009

Mmmm... love these! LOTS! That Melanie is one lucky lady ; ) Can't wait to see more. You were so nice to list where you purchased all of the materials to avoid a million comments, but I have to ask.. .what font did you use for the "please bring" on the insert?

caroline on May 12, 2009

loooove those stamps.

Valeen on May 12, 2009

how lovely!! Are the envelopes from Paper Source as well?? I would love to know what colour they are. They look like they were made from kraft paper and are so great!

Chic 'n Cheap on May 12, 2009

Gasp gorgeous! I almost bought the doily punch too but stuck with the picket one instead. The Gocco printing and stamps are ridiculously nice.

sara.jane on May 12, 2009

I love this look! Along the lines of what I invision for my own wedding. So beautiful :) The reds and browns with the country barn feel is fantastic. Can't wait for further details!

mandie s on May 12, 2009

These are LOVELY! I did have a barn wedding (almost exactly 3 years ago, too!), but it wasn't very rustic, and looking back on it, I would have made it more rustic because it's just oh so charming of an idea! ;)
