Inspired Stationery ~ Summer Stationery Picks

Engraved Stationery | Available at Salutations

Summer is so very close, and to celebrate it we have rounded up our picks for the perfect summer additions to your stationery wardrobe!

The soft blue of the Crane paper {above} makes us think of the water. We love how elegant it is paired with gold engraving. There’s something very easy-chic about it, don’t you think?

MaeMae Stationery | Available at Salutations

If you prefer surfing to sailing or Hawaii to the Hamptons you might just need this MaeMae Paperie stationery {above}. The design is so playful and spirited that it makes us want to throw on our coolest bikini and pedal to the nearest beach {which would technically be quite the bike ride from our Charlotte or Triangle locations, but you get the idea}!

Finally, we love the engraved Vera Wang stationery {above} for its unabashed celebration of the sea. Why not send a note to someone you love while sending them a taste of summer all at once?

Stop by Salutations in Charlotte or the Triangle to see more great stationery! We can’t wait to see you there!

Wedding Wednesday: Blissful Inspiration ~ Die-Cut Dazzlers

Letterpress Die-Cut Invitation | Available at Salutations

Happy Wedding Wednesday everyone! This week we are totally inspired by die-cut invitations! Beautiful, cool shapes are the perfect way to add an unexpected twist to your wedding invitations, be they traditional or contemporary! We especially love them on letterpress invitations.

And if you really want to make a die-cut invitation pop, we recommend having its edges painted and adding an envelope liner. The result is nothing short of stunning.

Below are a few of our recent favorite die-cut letterpress invitations…

The only thing more stunning than a die-cut invitation is an entire die-cut invitation suite. How adorable are the smaller die-cut cards below?

There are so many choices in die-cut shapes, which we love. We love the combination of the contemporary shape and foil stamping on the invitation below. Any guest would be lucky to find it in their mailbox!

In addition to edge painting and envelope liners, we also love seeing die-cut invitations with wallpaper backs. Fun patterns highlight an exquisite die-cut shape beautifully.

And while we love the boldness of the suite above, die cuts can also be soft. The shape below is slightly more feminine with its soft lines and curves.

And when paired with the right colors, envelope liners and fonts, a well designed die cut suite does exactly what every invitation should: cue guests in on the type of event to expect while building anticipation. We think this invitation suite demonstrates this perfectly…

So when considering wedding invitations and how to add a twist to the traditional or unexpected drama, consider die cutting.
