We Met in a Bar

weekend

My weekend consisted of goccoing, Paper-Sourceing, printing, moving (an old bed out and a new bed in) and putting together the final kids booklets (which you will see later :)

This is what my dinner table looked like for the better part of the day:

I gocco’d ivory and pink napkins for Kilee’s upcoming wedding with chocolate brown ink. They turned out lovely and now I can’t wait to do my own!

We also created a kissing menu to be placed at each guest’s dinner plate. On one side is a ‘thank you for coming’ kind of note and the other is the kissing menu. So sweet!

The kissing menu details :) Kilee got the idea from a real wedding she saw on another blog, and then reworded it a bit to fit her needs :)

Fun fun!

Wow… you are the Gocco queen! I have one, but I’m still afraid to use it in case I mess it all up!

awesome!! so when you gocco napkins, do you use the paper ink? or do you have to use the fabric ink?

thanks!

Abbie: Don’t be afraid of it! It is so easy and you can do so much with it!
Logan: I used the regular paper ink and it printed really nicely. It didn’t even bleed through at all!
Jessica: I updated the post :)

Ok, I tried to stay away and not take a peek. I’m glad I did because it makes me even more excited to receive in the mail. Thank you!

Next up…programs!

Literally every time you post a new project I bang my head against the wall for not jumping on the Gocco train when I still stood a chance of finding supplies. I neeeeeed these napkins!

They turned out great! You ARE the gocco queen!

the kissing menu is a cool idea!! love gocco… wish I had one (and skills… would probably need them too)

Are you still taking freelance projects now that you’re gainfully employed again? I am in desperate need of some napkins for a party.

13 Heather { 03.11.09 at 6:36 pm }

kate: due to the shortage of gocco supplies right now, I am hoarding the rest of my screens for myself, at least until after the wedding :) So sorry!!

Wow…those napkins rock! And the *kissing menu* idea is very cool…

Can I ask you a gocco question??
Is it possible to print on strips that are, say, 3″ x 7″ or does the paper have to be a standard-ish size?
I’ve just posed my invite idea on my site…
You’ve totally inspired me with your gocoo-goddessness!

it’s called a CONGA line, not a CONGO line!!!!
