maps!

I decided that I wanted something a little more unique than a printed out google map for our insert cards, so I turned to the wonderful Etsy hoping to find something that struck me. Turns out, it's insane how many different varieties there are of "map cards" out there...from hand drawn to map looking to google maps that were more embellished- there was SO many options!

After narrowing it down, I really liked the look of Calligraphics stuff, so I sent her an email explaining my overly difficult directions to the ceremony. She was so fast it was insane...I expected it to take a few days to get a proof, but I got a black and white basic drawing that night, with a finalized color proof the very next day! I was so impressed, and it turned out AWESOME. It was exactly what I was looking for, not to mention she is ridiculously cheap. Totally worth it to not have to try and create on myself. So I started printed those tonight, hopefully all of this will be finished tomorrow so we can get these babies mailed off!

Me

I'm a newlywed with a love for the little things in life- sipping a cappuccino at a local coffee shop in the sunshine, art that seems to make no sense, the smile my husband gets sometimes when I catch him watching me, the cool breeze in the fall when the leaves are changing, my dog when she has somehow manages to wedge herself under my hand and I find myself petting her unknowingly, the smell of freshly cut grass, the sounds of the ocean, taking photos of instances you can never get back. I feel too much about things but may not always say it. I adore my mother. You'll find I take a lot of pictures. La vita รจ bella.
