Please read! :)

Dear friends,

There is big news from We'll Always Have Paris - studios: we are undergoing a name change! We will now and forever be known as (drumroll, please)...

June Cat Cards!

There is a long, heartfelt story behind this, which I will share later. The change has been in the works for quite some time, which is why you haven't been hearing much out of We'll Always Have Paris - studios!

- We can now be found (and liked!) on Facebook at June Cat Cards.
- The Etsy shop is now found at junecatcards.etsy.com.
- And finally, the blog is being re-launched at www.junecatcards.blogspot.com - this is where you'll be able to see upcoming events, product information, and recent projects!

As always, custom orders are closest to my heart and are my specialty. Please contact me for all paper goodies for birthdays, weddings, or any day you'd like to make special. Thank you for your love and support!

Big old crafty hugs,
Emily

Mini Cards for Katie

Katie of Ribbons and Robots asked me to create a set of mini cards + envelopes for someone very special to her. This has got to be one of the most unique and fun orders I've gotten the opportunity to fill! She gave me a brief and sweet description of the recipient's personality and interests, and let my imagination run wild. Here's what I came up with:

(I desperately wish I had better photos of these; these were taken at the back of my booth during Shop Small Saturday!)





If you haven't checked out Ribbons & Robots yet, please do so! Katie creates the most adorable stuffed animals!
Katie, thank you SO much for the opportunity to create such unique mini's!


Mint & Gold Holiday Cards for Mindy

Mindy (Austin, TX) asked me to make a set of 10 Holiday cards for her and her new hubby. She chose this very pretty, dainty mint and gold embossed design:





I'm in love with this color combination - so delicate and pretty for winter! Mindy, thanks so much for inviting me to make your holiday cards!

Mason Jar Gift Tags for Sabrina

I was so flattered and excited when Sabrina from California contacted me via etsy and asked if I would make her a batch of 40 mason jar gift tags. Little did I know, someone had "pinned" a photo of a few tags I shared earlier this year, that Sabrina liked.

In trying to track down the image (to be sure I replicated the designs she liked), I discovered that when searching for "mason jar tags" on Pinterest, my work was the THIRD pin listed! I couldn't believe it! Thank you, Sabrina, for your kind remarks and for placing such a fun order!





Sabrina requested 40 to/from tags with a light color palette featuring lots of mint green. Thanks again, Sabrina!

Cathy & Erin's Christmas Invitations

Mother and daughter Cathy and Erin throw an adorable (and crafty!) Christmas Party for their family each December. This year, they asked me to make their invitations! I love Christmas and this helped get me into the spirit a little early this year. :)

They chose this vintage red, green and gold design on a flat notecard with a printed back.







Thank you so much, Erin & Cathy, for choosing me to create these special invitations! I hope your party is a blast. :)

Flat invitations are an elegant way to invite your guest list to your special occasion, whether it's a shower, birthday party, or holiday gathering like this one. Contact me today for details!

Confetti!

Confetti is a quick and easy way to add the festive spirit to any occasion! Sprinkle on a table, or insert it in an invitation or greeting card. My husband and I inserted an array of purple leaves into our wedding invitations last fall and received lots of flattering feedback. We also sprinkled neon star confetti on the table at the 80's-themed party we hosted this summer!

Any confetti can be customized by shape and color to fit your occasion. Each piece is punched by hand out of high-quality cardstock in the color(s) of your choice. At this time, the following shapes are availble: stars, butterflies, snowflakes, holly berries, hearts, crowns, mini pennants, and mini banners.

Price:
small bag - $1
large bag - $4

Perfect for:
* birthday parties
* birthday invitations
* bridal or baby showers
* wedding invitations
* bachelorette parties
* christmas, thanksgiving, and other holiday gatherings







Contact me with your party theme today! Thanks for stopping by. :)

Will's Wizard of Oz Proposal Card

I was honored when Will asked me to help him with his proposal to Michele. His only order from the beginning was that it be a BIG card. I know that the bride-to-be is a big fan of The Wizard of Oz, so we agreed upon that theme and I worked up a sketch.

This was SUCH a fun project to work on. When I was done, I didn't want to part with it! It stands about 2 1/2 feet tall, and features glittering 3D Emerald City beams and yellow bricks, as well as a great big poppy patch!






I am honored to be asked to be a part of this proposal. Do you have a special moment that could use some crafty planning? :)
