This month we are featuring David and Edward, fondly titled, ‘The Midwest Husbands’, who wowed us with their finished project. This creative duo loves making the most out of the little moments. They shared a little bit about themselves and some insights into how they approached their wedding invitation design using the Paper Bar.

Bachelorette Party Invite

Bachelorette_Invite_2

A bachelorette party is a monumental event worthy of some great invitations. Meg K., a designer at Paper Source, planned her friend’s bachelorette party in Nashville. Using Paper Source products (and a whole lot of creativity), Meg fashioned the perfect invitation for an action-packed weekend.

Meg used our Envelope Liner Kit and coordinating Mint & Gold Fine Paper for a pop of color. This was a great way to finish the design with a professional look without breaking the bank.

Houston Inspiration: A Paper & Pool Wedding

Without a huge budget for her wedding, but with a certain level of quality in mind, Houston PS fan Kristina and her husband knew just where to go for quality, accessibility, and the perfect color palette. With a hand from PS, a lovely bridesmaid, and creativity, Kristina found the essentials she needed for her Paper & Pool themed wedding.

When it was time to start our wedding budget I knew we had to really save money and do the whole wedding with paper. One, I am a huge paper fan, and two, it was something that seemed to fit our personalities and theme. I have always loved the pool color from Paper Source so we went and bought all of the components of what we needed for our day. I didn’t go in with a real plan. All I knew I wanted was pinwheels!!
