designsgirl on oh so beautiful paper

I am grateful to Samantha and Whitney - owners of the gorgeous Gus & Ruby stationer of Portsmouth, New Hampshire stationer- who gave designsgirl calligraphy credit during a recent Oh So Beautiful Paper feature of clients Kate and Cleon dreamy wedding suite. 

The rose gold metallic gouache I used for Kate's and Cleon's wedding envelopes was gleamingly beautiful.

Aren't the ladie of Gus & Ruby talented?

As a Bella Figura wedding invitation designer, each quarter, I receive samples of my custom designs or custom calligraphy from clients around the world.

It is nice to see the final beauty of letterpress print and the swell and colorful envelope liners for which Bella Figura is known.
