the princess party i was working on a couple of weeks ago took place this weekend, and i'm so excited to be able share the invitation! the client decided to go with a princess pony theme after seeing my older princess invites, but she wanted something new. she liked the idea of embellishing with tulle and adding a small wand, and of course, something with horses. since she was delivering them via school, i thought of a scroll. i love when i get to think outside of the envelope!
i created a royal "crest" of sorts with a monogrammed crown and ponies, which i drew on the wacom tablet. (the pony was so hard, not perfect, but i love it anyway!) the crest became the focal point for royal stationery, with an additional border detail at the bottom using the same crown and ponies. parchment paper gives the invite an authentic feel, especially when rolled up and tied with tulle. the wand is such a sweet bonus, the perfect finishing touch. i love the princess invites i made for my girls when they were each three, but this one ranks right up at the top of my royal faves with them!
