Aqua and Mint Wedding

Friday, December 2nd, 2011

There is an old saying “blue and green should never be seen”, but I don’t believe that at all!

Blue and green seem to be the colour of the moment as we have been sending out so many invitations in different shades of these colours. From sage and sea green to aqua and baby blue, they are definitely the most popular colours chosen for invitations right now.

When grouping a few of the different blue and green invitations together, they looked so pretty and complimented each other so well that I felt inspired to create an inspiration board based on a blue and green wedding. I love the effect of combining soft and bright blues along with sage, mint and sea green. This colour palette is so pretty and fresh, it just makes me think of cool summer breezes and after dinner mints!

Hello Pollyanna

Wednesday, September 22nd, 2010

I am delighted to welcome the beautiful ‘Pollyanna‘ to the Poppiseed Designs range! The combination of the pretty yellow pattern and subtle grey text creates a delightful summery invitation, suited to many different wedding themes. It may be an elegant marquee wedding in a fragrant garden or perhaps a pretty, rustic county celebration complete with wood tables covered in pattered linens, mason jars filled with wild flowers and delightful home made lemonade stand like below…

Oh So Summery

Wednesday, September 8th, 2010

You can’t help but feel happy and cheery with this zesty summer colour palatte of tangerine and yellow. Our newest wedding stationery design ‘Flora’ screams fun, flirty and summer! These bright colours look fabulous for a beach wedding or a garden wedding. You could decorate table settings with lemons and oranges, beautiful poppies and checkered linens. To add to the summery atmosphere serve zesty yellow and orange cocktails, lemon cupcakes and nothing is more fun than a candy bar!

A Beach Wedding

Sunday, July 25th, 2010

Sand between the toes, the sound of the waves rolling in and the smell of salt in the air – what a beautiful setting to be married in. Our latest wedding stationery range ‘Shelly Beach‘ is perfect for a stylish beach wedding, a simple yet classy design. We are thinking a wedding reception incorporating gorgeous tones of blue set against old weathered whitewash. Have fun gathering old bottles, sea shells, beads and twine, then get creative and use them for table settings, bombonieres or even at the ceremony location.

Vintage Lace

Tuesday, June 8th, 2010

This inspiration board was created around our ‘Vintage Lace‘ wedding invitation, which I thought suited a vintage inspired summer afternoon wedding glowing in a palette of sage green, tangerine orange, peach and cream. Imagine a warm summer afternoon filled with wide brimmed hats, the clinking of glasses and a game of croquet. I love the idea of a lavish dinning table and chairs setup in a country style garden where an afternoon gathering could turn into a romantic night with the addition of some lanterns and fairy lights hanging in trees.
