Samples for Julie and Robert

Julie and Robert are getting married at the Brooklyn Bridge Park and will follow up with the ever famous Bubby's of Brooklyn as their Reception venue. BTW Bubbys has fantabulous comfort foods like Mac n Cheese and the biscuits are to die for....the pies ain't so bad either ; )

Now, I have made many Bridge invites, but it is safe to agree that this set is one of the most gorgeous sets I have done. The paper is fashioned after aged/antique paper...

When Julie saw the pieces for the first time she emailed me, "Wow...Very Beautiful!!".

Here's a look at the set. The soon to be Bride and Groom used Cream, Merlot, and chocolate colors for their Fall wedding.

I love how the paper became leathery after the printing process:

The best is yet to come with this set. Stay tuned for map inserts!

The Hawthorne Ribbon Cutting and Showcase

I planned an event this week .... well two events! the first was a ribbon cutting for the Hawthorne Condominium at 420 Classon Avenue. The spin off event was a designer show case. We featured two of the most awesome local designers! Repop and My Little India!

(l-r) Here is Executive Director of PACC, Deb Howard, Brooklyn Borough President Marty Markowitz, HUD Exec, the lovely Peter Spina, and Ms Denise Scott, the executive director at LISC of NY!
