    I'm obsessed with Rifle Design and her beautiful hand painted illustrations!  The first time I saw her work on various wedding blogs I went right to her site and discovered she is in Winter Park, FL - right around the corner from me.  Since then I've been stalking her site anticipating the arrival of her new storefront in lovely little Winter Park.  I can't wait to go over and check it out and to meet Anna Bond the creator of these fabulous designs.  Her designs are customized for each couple and their wedding which makes it so unique and personal.  She ...

    I’m so excited about this one, I created an invite that is BRIGHT & FUN!  I have a huge love of different textile designs as well as the color yellow, so I had no choice but to hand paint some zig zag lines and use my favorite color on this hand crafted invitation! I also used some zig zag scissors to cut the borders of some components of this invite & paper suite. Another one of my favorite things about this shoot are the menus, I took some wood planks and cut them down to a 5×7 size and added the wedding menu to it and burned a heart shape at the top of the menu for some ...
