Italia

Tom and I once worked together at BI as Travel Staff and travel we did!  I left BI after a few years but Tom is still going strong.  So, it was no surprise when he told me he and his bride had chosen to take the plunge in fabulous Italy!

They needed a small amount of invites and wanted something a bit out of the ordinary. This is what we created together . . .

The invites were inspired by a vintage map of "Italia" that came from an atlas owned by my great grandfather. All of the pieces fit into an A7 mailer which is one of my favorite shapes and sizes.

Tom and Christy ...

May you have a marriage full of love, laughter and lots of travel! 
Salute!

Flash Back Friday!

As many of you know, I turned 40 this week!  So when I found this picture of my mom at her 40th birthday party I just had to share it!

I think she looks so happy and so young! At that time, she was the mom to a 20, 15 and 13 year old and had been married for more than 20 years.  I am the mom to a 9 year old and a 15 month old and I have been married for over 2 years. 


We've traveled our paths at different speeds but we both still rock a Wisconsin sweatshirt like nobody's business!


Cheers to all the gals turning 40 this year!
