It's all in the little details. I absolutely LOVE wax seals as they are such a stunning way to complete your stationery.

They look so pretty... but wow it is a long slow process making each one by hand. Even though we use a brass stamp each one is unique as the wax moves when the design is imprinted.

Getting the girls together to celebrate?
Why not show them how special they are by giving them a gorgeous invite to your shower.
So much better than an invite via socials 💌

That's a wrap for 2021...

As I sit here leaving this message I find myself reflecting on the past two years that have been challenging for all of us. I am so grateful to so many people for so many reasons.

I am grateful for my friends as you have been on this journey with me through thick and thin.

I am blessed to a family who supports encourages me to keep going.

To all the wonderful couples that I have been along this rollercoaster of a ride with me... love always wins...always

To my babies and my partner in life... I am so lucky to have you.

Wishing you all a fabulous Christmas overflowing with fun, laughter, family, lots of yummy food and most of all love.
Merry Christmas everyone ###

Sending Congratulations to Levana & Con as they are now Mr & Mrs Catsaitis.

Levana and Con asked me to design stationery especially for them and their special day. The brief included Australian Florals and a colour palette including blush, cream, ivory and soft greens.

Today they said "I Do" at the stunning local venue Glenworth Valley Weddings just up the road from us on the Central Coast.

Thank you for asking me to be a part of your wedding jouney. Wishing you both a long and happy life together filled with Love and Celebrations

When the "I Do's" are said and the celebrations are over why not send your guests a personal thank you for sharing your special day with you.

Wishing everyone a safe & Happy Easter!

I am taking a break across the Easter long weekend to spend time with my family whilst eating way to much chocolate and enjoying Easter buns.

Hope the Easter bunny is good to you all

Why not make your envelopes just as special as the invitations inside them. Elements of your invitation design can be included when you have your envelopes addressed so that your guests are excited to see what inside when they receive them.

Today is a special day for Jorji-lee and Jake as they are getting married.

When I first met Jorji-lee and her dad the brief was that the colour palette was white, blue and grey. The groom requested that the stationery had to include Norah Head Lighthouse.
Oh, I almost forgot that Jorji-lee asked that babies breath was also featured in the design as her vision of the day included lots of babies breath.

William, Jorji-lees' dad wished me luck trying to combine the lighthouse with babies breath .... Well it turns out that the couple loved the save the date cards and also their invitations.

Wishing Jorji-lee & Jake all the very best for their wedding this afternoon.

Sending congratulations to Lauren & Brendan who are getting married today at Ben Ean Hunter Valley.

It maybe a different date than first planned but with this stunning Friday sunshine it is going to a beautiful wedding.

The couple selected wooden invitations originally but when they had to change the date they selected textured cotton card.

Have a fantastic day celebrating with friends & family.

Burgundy is such a popular colour being featured in weddings for the past few years and continues to do so. It is such a great colour when combined with the native Australian florals.

One of our new collections is the "Rachel" which combines the stunning burgundy and red tones with native greenery. As you can see for those brides that are having burgundy bridesmaid dresses it is drop dead gorgeous.
