forever

A very good friend of mine is getting married and commissioned me to design her wedding invitations. This is the 'Save the Date' card without the text. The couple bicycle a lot and I thought it was fitting to draw in a cute three speed!
Here is the invitation: two bicycles, a tall tree, birds, leaves on the tree... all good things. The couple are going to add text to this one as well. It will be folded three times and put into square envelopes. I can't wait to get one in the mail! Unfortunetly, Jesse and I won't be able to go to the wedding because we're living in England. It will be wonderful I know! I'm also creating a marraige contract for them, which all their guests will sign. It's a lovely Quaker tradition and I am so glad that I am able to be a part of it.

oh mary these are so beautiful, Jess you are a lucky girl, how unique these will be for your wedding. I got to see Jess the other day Mary at my graduation party, Caroline and Rachel both came as well. It was really wonderful to see them and to hear about Jess' trip to visit you, it sounds like you had a wonderful time and was able to do some traveling. That is so great!!!! Miss you and congrats on another commission. ~Alison
