Joyful Heart Design Supports National Breast Cancer Awareness Month
October 13, 2009
Joyful Heart Design To Donate Proceeds of New Stationery Product to Pink Initiative in Support of Breast Cancer Awareness
Joyful Heart Design has designed a new stationery product to benefit Pink Initiative in response to Pink Initiative’s Be the Change $10,000 Challenge for October and National Breast Cancer Awareness Month. The product is a set of note cards displaying a silver princess crown printed on white linen paper and embellished with a pink jewel. The set comes wrapped with pink ribbon and is being sold by Joyful Heart Design on the company’s website, www.JoyfulHeartDesign.com/pinkinitiative or by calling 806-787-1450.
Pink Initiative is a community of wedding industry professionals passionate about funding awareness, outreach, education and research for breast cancer. “During our first twelve months, Pink Initiative’s board of directors and our growing group of vendor sponsors have taken our message to heart proudly displaying our logo on websites and blogs, spreading our message on Twitter, and kindly giving more than $7,000 thus far,” reported Emilie Sommer, founder of Pink Initiative and professional photographer with emilie inc.
Joyful Heart Design will also donate 10% of proceeds from all invitation and stationery items containing the color pink which are purchased during the month of October to Pink Initiative.
“I am honored to be a Pink Initiative sponsor and hope to inspire others with these products and encourage people to celebrate life now,” said JoDitt Williams, founder of Joyful Heart Design.
An updated report of funds raised to date can be found at http://pinkinitiative.org as well as a list of participating wedding vendors, fund raising ideas, and information on how to become a pink initiative sponsor.

Remembering 9/11 - Do your loved ones know you love them?
September 11, 2009

On this anniversary of the tragic terrorist attacks of 9/11/01, as we are honoring all the heroes and remembering those who lost their lives on that tragic day, do you think about your loved ones and wonder if they will know how much you love them even after you are gone?
I used to wonder, but I don’t wonder anymore. I am confident that they will know because I am taking measures to make sure they know. Using this amazing online greeting card system, I am able to create cards and letters to my loved ones and then have them sent out at a later date. (Real, PRINTED greeting cards sent through the US Postal Service, NOT ecards!) With this system, I can even create custom cards using my own photos in a snap.

We purchase life insurance to provide for our loved ones financially, but how many of us make preparations to provide for our loved ones emotionally in the event that tragedy strikes.
Do you have words of wisdom you’d like to give to your child or to a younger brother or sister when they become teenagers… and when they fall in love… or when they get their heart broken? You don’t have to wait. You can write down those words of wisdom now and have them delivered on a specific date in the future.
So, as you are planning your wedding, plan for the future as well.
Leave a comment below or email me at info@joyfulheartdesign.com if you would like to try out this online greeting card system or if you would like more info on how to do this.

Carry Out Your Wedding Theme with Matching Placecards and Place card holders
August 12, 2009
The difference is in the details!
A simple way to incorporate your wedding theme and your wedding colors on your reception tables is to use matching place cards and/or place card holders.
It’s a simple decorating stategy, but it’s not always easy to find matching place cards. That’s why Joyful Heart Design Custom Invitations offers matching place cards with every wedding invitation design. We can also print your place cards for you with your guest’s names, saving you lots of time.
For example, here is a Spring Garden Theme wedding invitation in yellow, green and brown, along with the matching place cards.

These were designed as tent cards, which fold and stand on their own. However, we would be glad to create the place cards as a flat card instead, to be used with a place card holder.
For instance, check out these lovely handblown glass miniature vase place card holders. Add some flowers in your wedding colors for a very elegant effect.
Or you could put your place cards inside an elegant gold frame, like the one below.

Or place them on top these adorable mini topiary place card holders.
My favorite place to shop for unique place card holders is MyWeddingFavors.com
Enter coupon code TAKE25 to receive $25 off orders over $200.
Or enter coupon code SAVE10 to receive 10% off orders over $150.
Wedding Inspiration Board Contest

I just love viewing and creating wedding inspiration boards, (or collages) like the one below, to see how different color combinations, styles and themes will look, don’t you?

New Autumn Sunburst Save the Date Card Design
July 17, 2009
I created this new Autumn Sunburst Save the Date card and I’d like your feedback on it. It is not for sale… yet. I entered it in the Seasonal Save the Date design challenge at minted.com. If it wins or is one of the top designs, then it will be for sale on minted.com.
I used deep jeweltones to give this contemporary card an autumn feel even without the typical fall leaf or pumpkin icons. The stylized sunburst is warm and inviting. It is fun, yet formal; bold, yet simple. The squash orange and garnet red sunburst could be used on the wedding invitations and on other wedding accessories, decorations and favors to carry the autumn theme throughout the entire wedding and reception.
So… if you like it and would like to be able to purchase it, then please go to minted.com and rate it. (5 means you love it!)
While you are at minted.com, take a look at all the awesome designs submitted for the challenge and rate some others as well. (If you only rate one or two cards, then they throw those scores out.)
Also, feel free to leave me a comment either here or on minted.com with your thoughts about my Autumn Sunburst Save the Date card.
