50th Anniversary Celebration

What a wonderful weekend it was at my home in Kentucky. My sisters and I were able to honor our parents for their 50th anniversary. Each of us had a unique talent to contribute to the event...photography, culinary arts, floral arranging, and of course calligraphy. Thank you Mom and Dad for always encouraging us, being a constant example of faithful love and devotion to each other.

Light Inks on Dark Paper - Beautiful!

Want to really make you invitations stand out? Use a light ink on dark paper. It makes such a striking statement. I recently made some samples and had so much fun shooting some pictures against some flowers in the back yard. Nature is truly a perfect backdrop!

Wedding Signs

Wedding signs are a wonderful way to greet your attendants. This is especially helpful if you have a wedding outdoors or at a place in which people are not familiar. Furthermore, you can take the sign with you to the place of your reception. Most of the time, this is a place in which people may not be as familiar. This is the most recent one I did for a precious couple who had a reception at Squire Creek Country Club in Choudrant, Louisiana

P A P E R G L A Z E in Southern Weddings Magazine blog

How exciting it was to see P A P E R G L A Z E in Southern Weddings Thursday, March 4, 2010. It's really teeny tiny, but if you look real closely, you can see Paperglaze Calligraphy on the 2nd line. Katharine Waterman states, "The black dessert cards by Paperglaze Calligraphy are a perfect counterpoint to all the color I think."

Exciting Weekend for Paperglaze

What a wonderful surprise! Last Friday I was asked by a previous calligraphy client to do some quick place cards for a wedding dessert table. I made them and put them in my mailbox for her to pick up. Heather is the owner and creator of Social Bites of Ruston and she does WONDERFUL work. Little did I know that some pictures from the wedding would end up on a wonderful blog that would be viewed by Southern Wedding magazine. Monday I was informed that the wedding will be highlighted in Southern Wedding magazine. I don't know if some of my calligraphy will end up in the magazine, but there's a chance! Thank you Heather for asking me to do the cards for your beautiful, tasty creations. Check her out at socialbitesofruston.com. And thank you Kelly Moore for taking such wonderful pictures and placing them on your blog. Check her out at kellymoorephotography.com.
