perfect
I am loving this poster sold by etsy seller dazeychic. I think posters are a great gift idea for a low-budget christmas! Check out the rest of her posters, she has some great ones

Just stick a 4×6 photo in the center and wham! A pretty awesome frame within a frame.

Make sure to check back tomorrow for another real wedding
Good night!

you haven’t done me wrong yet!
Ok blogging world, I need your help. I am looking for flat cards in this color:

Marigold, mustard… this one is from Mountaincow.com and is called saffron. Unfortunately they only offer it in a light weight. I need something at least 80lb. I have googled everything I can think of and just can’t find that color! If you have seen it or know of a great paper place, please leave a link, I would be very very grateful!

)
-dress fitting with Mehtab (thanks for the recommendations, she is great!)
-seeing a woman stuff a balloon into the trashcan at the starbucks drive through
-mailing off our Save The Dates
-buying my first ever pink peonies! who would have known they would be in season in late November?
Pictures to come.
Hope yours was exciting too ![]()

you know you want me…
Hello! So this post is a little abnormal, but today is an abnormal day. Working for a startup company in this economy is no bueno for my bank account so I am looking to take on more freelance work. Here is what I can do for you:
Photo Editing: I was a photo-communications major in school which meant that photo editing was key. As of right now I edit for Matthew Morgan Photography. If you are a bride and would like your pictures professionally edited, I am amazing at it
Maybe you couldn’t afford a photographer so you had friends take pictures, maybe you had a photographer but didn’t like the editing, whatever your reason, I am your girl! Please email me at heather {at} wemetinabar {dot} com for pricing and more information. You can see my mad crazy editing skills here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here and here.

Invitation/ Paper Good Design: As a graphic designer I get to work on (boring) health ads and posters during the day, but my real love is invitation design. If you are looking for custom designed invitations on a budget, please contact me! You can see my work here and here. I can print with my ink jet printer and with my gocco as well. Again, please contact me at heather {at} wemetinabar {dot} com if you are interested!

Update: I added some editing before and afters on my About page (top left) if you are interested!
