along with cooler temperatures, september also means we’re in the midst of holiday orders. we’ll be taking on fewer custom projects this holiday season. if you’re interested in custom cards, gift tags, party invitations, etc. please send us an email so we can discuss your project ยป hello [at] duetletterpress.com. thanks + happy thursday!
september is here and i’m excited about what it promises to bring. cooler temperatures. autumn. it’s the gateway to all of our celebrations [except for em's birthday]. soon, we’ll be celebrating my birthday. halloween [a halloween bash sounds fun!]. thanksgiving. our anniversary. kacey’s birthday. christmas. oh my!
one fun addition is having em with us experiencing these things for the first time. it’s my first birthday with her. it will be her first halloween. her first thanksgiving. our first anniversary with her in our lives. the first time kacey turns a year older as a father. her first christmas. i’m excited. we both are.
ps – aren’t these butterflies pretty? i found them frolicking in the green, green grass.
this is my favorite picture from em’s baptism. it was taken by kacey’s father. notice all the hands? mine is there. so is kacey’s. plus the priest’s. and little em’s, too. love.
below is the invitation we designed and letterpress printed for our little em’s baptism.
the soft gray design on the cards was adapted from the delicate lace and pintuck design of the feltman brothers dress that she wore after the ceremony.
the design was also carried through to the fondant cake that was served at the celebration that followed.
[once again, i edited the invitation photos for privacy sake. her full name was printed on the cards we sent out.]
