Labels - Sweet Treats and Favors

Something I love about current wedding trends is the Candy Bar. No, not the Snicker.

The actual bar, or buffet, of candy treats for your guest to enjoy as a wedding favor. These labels have been very popular to appear on a clear, cello bag near you and placed strategically near the Candy Bar for your guests to load up a baggie to take home.


All of the labels are shown with fun song lyrics, but yours can say anything you want! Go the extra step to personalize them with your names and the date.

Also great for shower favor bags, these can be personalized with other fun sayings like "Jana's Bridal Shower -- only 68 more days until the Miss becomes a Mrs." At only $3 per sheet of 18 labels, they are a cost-effective way to make your Candy Bar personalized and perfect!

Labels - Argyle

Ok, I'm a sucker for labels. While invitations are hands-down my passion, I think address labels can say so much about the sender. I designed these early on in Bliss Papers and am finally sharing these great labels for your enjoyment!

Font, font color, and argyle colors are all completely customizable, and these labels are available in multiple sizes to fit your preference. At only $3 per sheet, they are affordable, custom labels!

Also, check out these Argyle Pastels, great for a softer look (and a favorite for baby shower invitations and announcements!)

Labels - Round Wedding Rings Seals

Envelope Seals! These little labels are just under 2" across and perfect for sealing your Save the Date envelopes. Colors, fonts, font colors, and ring tones (white gold or yellow gold) are custom to your specifications. Here, they are shown (from top to bottom) in Navy with white gold rings, Brown with yellow gold rings, and Black with white gold rings.

Get creative and thinking about what would be perfect for your seals -- they're the first part of your Save the Date your guests will see!

At only $3 per sheet of 18 labels, these are an affordable highlight to any wedding mailing. They are also great to seal

Lables - Bumble Beets

More labels fun!! These were originally designed for my cousin, who wanted something fun for her labels, featuring bumble bees.

If you check out the Simply collection of note cards on our web site, there are tons of characters and animals to select from (elephants or basketballs, anyone?) to customize these labels even further. The background and dot colors can be customized or eliminated to your preferences.

So get creative! At only $3 per sheet, these are affordable custom labels!

Labels - Black Stripe

Labels! Labels! Labels!!

More are coming steadily, but check these out for today: The Black Stripe labels feature trios of vertical stripes and a solid-colored text box.

A classic look with a fun colors and stripes! Font, font color, stripe color, and text box color are all completely customizable, and these labels come in multiple sizes to fit your preference. At only $3 per sheet, they are affordable custom labels!

Batter's Up Bar Mitzvah

I was hired to design a creative invitation for an upcoming bar mitzvah in our community. The bar mitzvah has a baseball theme and our host wanted a masculine and adult feel to a fun theme. As our guest of honor is a big Yankees fan, I designed the blue pinstripes with a thick red block print to set the tone.

The invitation in totality measures 6" x 12". The lower 4" are a perforated tear-off response postcard, which has the host's address printed on the reverse. They only needed a postcard stamp for the response (a great option in these tough economical times). They were printed on traditional white cardstock and scored before folding.

The entire invitation folded up into a 6" x 4" enclosure and was sealed with these great round baseball labels, which measure 1 1/2" in diameter and feature our guest of honor's name and the date.

Coordinating place cards and thank you notes are also available.

Sally-Anne and Michael's Wedding Labels

First off, congratulations to Sally-Anne and Michael, who are getting married this weekend! I had the pleasure of designing not only their address labels when they recently moved, but the seals on their wedding invitations as well.

Sally-Anne has fabulous taste and her wedding colors are kelly green and hot pink. Her invitations were designed by Holland Photo Arts and my Grosgrain Round Labels finished off her ensemble perfectly!

Her invitations designers blogged about their invitations as well. Check it out HERE.

These, and any other round labels, are available for $5 per sheet of 20 labels.

Congratulations again, you two!

I finally have a blog!

That's right folks -- I finally broke down and decided to start blogging about my adventures in paper! Don't stress -- I've changed the names, addresses and locations in my sample work on here to protect my clients.

I live in the western suburbs of Chicago with my husband (who is a pilot and can't get far away enough from the paper business) and our three-year-old Lhasa Cocker mix, Reagan. We were married two years ago, and after making all of the paper products for my own wedding, and guests constantly asking who did my printing, it just made sense to channel my creative energies into my own business, and Bliss Papers was born.

Everything on my site is custom made, allowing all designs to be tailored to EXACTLY what you want. Nothing is pre-printed cardstock that I just add your information to.

I feature a full line of:

• Invitations - weddings, showers, birthdays, holiday parties and more!
  
• Wedding & Birth Announcements
• Correspondence & Note Cards - everyone should have a little stash of these at home
  
• Mommy cards - think business cards, but without a business on it, and with a little more personality
• Recipe Cards - Great for shower and housewarming gifts
• We've Moved Cards
• Monograms - Custom monograms for your child, the bride & groom, or just the sassy lady in your life
  
• Labels - Address labels, envelope seals, book labels and more!
• Place Cards - Because no bride wants to write them out when they can be custom printed
• Menu Cards - Let your guests know what is on tonight's menu - be it a dinner party for 10 or a wedding for 400
  
• Calligraphy services - they're more affordable than you think

I hope you will enjoy this blog, and I'll keep everyone updated with current jobs as they come along. We are working on the new web site, which will hopefully be up and running sometime this summer.
