Fabulous Fleur-de-Lis Wedding Invitation Design
May 13, 2009
Fleur de Lis wedding themes are very popular this year and not only for New Orleans brides, Louisiana brides or those of French decent. Brides across the country are choosing the fleur-de-lis as their wedding theme for many reasons. Though the fleur-de-lis is a symbol once used by French royalty, today it is entirely appropriate for modern fashion queens (and, of course, brides.)
According to wikipedia.org, the fleur-de-lis is a stylized design of either an iris or a lily that is now used decoratively as well as symbolically, or it may be “at one and the same time, political, dynastic, artistic, emblematic, and symbolic”,[1] especially in heraldry.
Joyful Heart Design Custom Invitation Boutique now offers a colorful fleur-de-lis pattern wedding invitation design that is completely customizable with any wedding colors of your choice.
Some of our most popular color combinations used for the fleur-de-lis patterns are: chocolate brown, hot pink and light pink; tiffany blue, chocolate brown and chartruese; chocolate brown, celadon green and tangerine orange.

Yellow & Green Garden Theme Wedding Ideas
April 25, 2009
Are you planning a Garden Theme wedding for a Spring wedding or a Summer wedding? If you are considering using yellow and green as your wedding colors, here is an inspiration board with some great ideas to get you started.
There are a wide range of yellow flowers that are usually available in the Spring and Summer including yellow roses, lilies, tulips and of course yellow daffodils. If you want the brightest, vibrant yellow, go for a yellow gerbera daisy.
The yellow and green “Flowering Flourishes” pocket wedding invitation set is one of my original creations. It includes the invite, an accommodations card, a reception card and an RSVP card with a recipe card on the back. The pocket fold that is pictured is Lemonade Yellow, the mat is Spring Green and the invitations are printed on cream cardstock. The “Flowering Flourishes” design is elegant, yet contemporary with green stems and flourishes and modern style flowers in different shades of yellow with a hint of orange. Pricing and ordering info is available at www.JoyfulHeartDesign.com. Also available are matching Save the Date cards, Wishes for the Bride & Groom cards, Bookmark Favors, Favor Tags, thank you notes and any other wedding stationery you might need.

Cool Color Combo of the Week – Pink & Silver Wedding Ideas
February 5, 2009
This week’s cool color combo of the week is:
Pink and Silver
I have to admit I am partial to this color combo as it is what I used in my wedding. However, the invitation I created recently for Jessica and Eric is much more contemporary than my wedding invitation from 20 years ago.

New Wedding Invitation Designs Introduced at Lubbock Bridal Show
January 14, 2009
We had a great turnout at the Lubbock Bridal Show on Sunday. Thanks to all the brides and grooms who came out to the show. And thanks to everyone who visited my booth. I enjoyed visiting with so many of you about your wedding and how you intend to make it special.
Joyful Heart Design introduced some new designs of pocketfold wedding invitations at the show and they were a big hit. My new line of Black & White with a splash of color consists of designs featuring 5 different black and white damask patterns and also a black & white zebra print. All of the new designs include a small amount of color to make a classic, yet trendy design. Check my online boutique often as I will be adding the new designs soon. And the samples will be available for purchase in my Etsy shop.
The Mod Stripes and Mod Circles pocketfold wedding invitation designs continue to be very popular.
I also presented my Save the Date cards, wedding programs and bridal shower invitations.
