a frank lloyd wright {wedding} invitation – sneak peak

I had mentioned there were many new projects in the cards for LizzyB Loves this year and one that I just sent to print is this sophisticated yet casual, Frank Lloyd Wright-inspired wedding invitation. I had shown you the Sedona-inspired visual + sparkle a few weeks ago, but after more conversations with the soon-to-be’s, and after narrowing down the color palette to the one you see above (all the bride’s favorite colors- a tile designer herself), I transformed the once ‘…pretty and 20′s and deco-looking…’ inspiration into a more ‘…masculine-feminine balanced and more creative and fun and bold…’ looking one; this in the words of Meg, the future bride.

Here’s a sneak peak into the Frank Lloyd Wright-inspired wedding invitation suite: the invitation above with a custom-designed pattern…

…and the rsvp following in the same motifs which are used throughout the entire wedding invitation suite. I think a success in accomplishing the ‘creative, fun, and bold’ requirement! {make sure to click on the visual + sparkle image to view in full!}

a frank lloyd wright {wedding} visual sparkle

I’m in the midst of designing a new Wedding Invitation, get this, with a Frank Lloyd Wright/Sedona theme. Can you imagine the beauty? With some great insight from the future newlyweds I found out that there is a beautiful Church built into the mesas of Sedona inspired by a student of Frank Lloyd Wright.

I took this as my starting point, along with some requests from the soon to be Mr. & Mrs., and created this lovely visual + sparkle = wedding full of pinks, blues and Sedona-colored images. {make sure to click on the image to view in full!}

visual + sparkle = baby shower

I’ve just sent the Quinceañera invitations I was working on to print…YES!! I’ll show you the completed suites when I put them together and photograph them. But now, it’s time to move on to Baby Shower invitations, which I have to complete in less than two weeks…yikes! So, to get my juices flowing with ideas and color inspiration I’ve created this bright visual + sparkle to keep close. {make sure to click on the image to view in full!}

I’m amassing quite a group of visual/color inspirations so I’ve also started a new category to find them all in one place, at a click of a link: visual + sparkle = inspiration. Enjoy the colorfulness!!

visual + sparkle = quinceañera invitations

On Friday I shared with you three gorgeous visual + sparkles for a Fall Quinceañera I am creating an invitation for, so today I have a visual + sparkle = paper inspirations for the actual invite.

These were all selected for various reasons: on some I like the orientation of the text, others I like the elongated format (with the #10 Open End envelope), and others I like the treatment of the graphics. Since I’m going with a Hollywood Chic Glamour feel I thought bold, Art Deco patterns would be the perfect accent. I can’t wait to start the actual design process…I’ll keep you posted. { Click on the image to view the complete visual + sparkle. }

visual + sparkle = quinceañera

So I’m starting a new category today, being that I haven’t seen very many ‘Quinceañera’ inspirations around I thought I would start my own for all of those modern and gorgeous soon to be ‘señoritas’.

I’d mentioned before that I had been commissioned to design a Quinceañera invitation for the fall, and I’m just getting started with research on papers and other materials, so I thought I would create a few visual + sparkles to get my, and the young ladies, juices flowing. The colors they’ve chosen are black and purple, yes, very modern and elegant to have black as a main color for a Quinceañera, but the times are surely changing.

This is my favorite inspiration board. Taking the main colors they chose, I immediately started thinking of Old Hollywood Glam-our, so I completed the palette with a cream, mint, and gray as accent colors. You absolutely have to see this visual + sparkles enlarged, so click on each collage to view in its entirety…there’s more to see!

Here I added a touch of Sweet Girly-ness with the pink paired as well with an off-white a slate color to keep the feel modern and sophisticated…but young.

And this is a more modern play on the first color palette, turning the saturation up to give it a younger and more playful essence. We’ll see which options they choose. I’ll for sure keep you posted on the process of this great invitation.
