I'm so excited for them.  A new year of learning.  A new year of friends.  A new year of growing.
Bus is coming!
Last night we had our back to school dinner to kick off the new year.

I love these 2 so much!  School is bittersweet for me.  I love they get to learn from someone else but miss them terribly during the day. 

You can see how much they've changed over their school years 1st grade & kindergarten.

Rainbow love

The violet invitation design in rainbow colors with gold. LOVE, LOVE how they turned out!  I was excited when designing them digitally but seeing in print on natural white made me gush with joy! The bride loved them too.    The gold envelopes add an extra touch of excitement along with the invite and postcard rsvp. These are the save the dates, in greens and blues and grey.  (they did have rounded corners too, in my excitement to photograph while the sun was out and wind was low, I obviously forgot to round the corners) Planning a wedding or event? I'd love to work with you. Send me a note s tephanie@steliedesigns.com
