Today's Sunday Sample Spotlight is almost an entire stationery set, and includes an invitation, reply card, save-the-date, and thank you note, all in a beautiful green, lavender, and purple color scheme!
I traced a photograph I'd taken of a lavender garden to achieve the illustration featured heavily in this design. Using the Adobe Illustrator pen tool, I left thin white spaces between all of shapes of individual lavender stems and leaves to give a graphic, stenciled look.
Then, I used a bold, sans-serif font in the same vibrant green of the leaves for the most important text (such as the date and names of the happy couple), using a thinner version of the same sans-serif font for the longer paragraphs of text, which I made the same pretty purple as the lavender in the illustration.
This design and color scheme would work for almost any time of year - since the blueish-purple is cool in tone, it works great for colder months, but the rich green and the floral theme fit great for the spring and summer seasons, too!
