Sunday Sample Spotlight: "The Perfect Pair"

This stationery set is based on a theme I saw on TheKnot.com - "The Perfect Pair" which features, as its illustration, a pair of pairs. :)

"The Perfect Pair" Invitation Duo (invite & information insert)





"The Perfect Pair" showcases a fun, modern color scheme: lime green and chocolate brown - a great color scheme for almost any season with its interesting mix of warmth (in the deep, rich brown) and cool yellow-green.



This stationery set uses a chocolate brown "Himalaya" pocketfold envelope, which I lined (on the left flap and right side pocket) with solid-colored green scrapbook paper. I then used these same colors on the printed stationery items, which feature graphic stripes and a simple two-color representation of pears leaning on each other. I created both the stripes and pears with the pen tool in Illustrator, and chose to have the pears touching each other without any hints of shadow so that it was a little hard to tell where one pear ended and another began.



The pear image is both adorable and sweet, and gets across the sentiment of a wedding in a fun but creatively simple way. And think of how easy it would be to continue the pear theme into your decor and wedding favors! This would also make a great theme for a wedding shower or anniversary party.
