January 25, 2010
I have designed several new Autumn Save the Date card designs which are now available at www.JoyfulHeartDesign.com.
Get 50 Save the Date cards FREE!
(See end of post for details.)
My Warm Autumn Leaves Save the Date card is very warm and inviting,
featuring a lovely array of fall leaves in rich autumn colors of burgundy,
orange and brown on a golden sunshine background.
Perfect for a traditional autumn wedding.
The Sassy Sunbursts Save the Date card is for those who want a modern fall wedding
design that is clearly Autumn without the typical fall leaves,
pumpkins or other common autumn icons.
The Circles ‘n’ Stripes Save the Date card design can be customized
with any color scheme. However, this fall color scheme of maroon,
squash, chocolate brown and champagne is one of my favorites.
These Save the Date Cards can all be customized with your own
photo and by your choice of fonts, font colors and design colors.
Get pricing and more info at www.JoyfulHeartDesign.com.
To get 50 FREE Save the Date Cards with your order of 50 or more,
simple enter code: 50FREE110 at checkout

My Fav Photo Graduation Announcements
June 9, 2009
My daughter graduated from high school this year and we had so much fun getting her senior pictures done and then creating her graduation announcements together. I make no apologies to the fact that this is my very favorite photo graduation announcement. We chose pictures that showed off her unique style and personality. We added one of her favorite sayings: “Peace • Love • Idalou.” And since she likes fleur-de-lis, we used a decorative fleur-de-li ornament in a color that matched her photos to add some flair to the announcement. She also chose her favorite fonts that reflect her style. We were very pleased with the final result and she received lots of compliments on them.
Visit my website at: www.JoyfulHeartDesign.com to get more information, see more samples or order custom photo graduation announcements for your special graduate.
