This picture, found at snippet & ink, has to be one of my all time favorite examples of the wrap around envelope label. I love the bold colors, the creative stamps and of course the pretty writing.!
Wrap around labels are such time savers that are so easy to use! Rest assured, they always look great wrapped around the envelopes. Always.
One of the things that I love most about this suite would be the different patterns that are used, throughout the suite, which create depth and texture to the paper.
I've never paid too much attention to the rsvp cards before, but this one caught my eye. Instead of demanding that they respond and come to a day that is essentially all about you, this card lets the guests know that you are looking forward to being with them. That struck a cord with me. I'm a fan.
Just a little peek at the invitation itself.
The entire suite was banded together with a transparent patterned wrap.
Above: A red laser cut anchor was affixed to the invitation with blue and white bakers twine. It stole the show. Below: Even the back of the invitation was attention-getting as it was coated with red and white diagonal stripes!
I loved the bright bold blue hue of the envelopes that Chelsey sent. I chose to adorn them with the "celebrate" postage stamp and loved the extra pops of color it provided to the envelope.
I know that you're all going to shake your heads at me since, after all, I am a "calligrapher," but I used this fun wrap around label template {shoot me an e-mail if you would like me to e-mail it to you!} for the addresses of the guests. I just couldn't help it! Wrap-around labels are just so adorable and this was the perfect occasion for me to use them. Plus, my hand and fingers needed a little break from calligraphy! I did make a newbie mistake that I thought that I would share. I used a glue stick to adhere the labels to the envelopes and I should have used real glue. Most of the envelopes didn't make it to their destinations and, if they did, the labels were falling off or crumpled. How sad.
I was and still am in love with these little nautical invitations. A huge thanks to Chelsey of 4th & folded for bringing them to life! Please excuse the poor quality of the pictures, taken by yours truly. Please credit both penned & pretty and 4th & folded when reposting any images!
The invitation mimics a vintage library due date card with a typewriter font that is too adorable to take your eyes off of.
The RSVP card takes the form of a "Library Card Application" form that your guests would be delighted to fill out.
From the designer: The couple's wedding reception was to be held at the Newberry Library library in Chicago, Illinois. These invitations were designed to look like vintage library material. A due date card, library application and card catalogue cards {see the reception card, below} were used as the inspiration for each piece. The entire package was placed in a navy blue pocket that resembles a pocket inside a library book. 
And you know that we love wrap around labels, so we had to end with a picture of the lovely envelope and the darling wrap around label.

Oh. My. Gawd. Plenty of space for calligraphy on the front and a darling label/seal/sticker holding down the envelope flap on the back. Cover the sticker with your monogram, your return address or something clever. Smitten doesn't even begin to describe our feelings towards this little gem.
I love seeing an invitation that isn't printed onto white paper. Why not spice things up and print on colored card stock with white ink for a fresh look!?
Further, there isn't anything that I love more than an outer envelope that is any color other than white. Make your wedding invitation envelope stand out in your guests mailbox/stack of mail by using a colored envelope! White, silver or gold ink or a plethora of wrap around labels will allow you to address even the darkest of envelopes!
I am a sucker for a chic envelope liner and this one, adorned with blossoms, is quite adorable! 
All additional and pertinent information was printed on this pink tri-fold.
I am loving this little tag that's threaded thru the brown string/ribbon that holds the invitation and RSVP pieces together!
The Love: King & Queen of Hearts Stamps are quite popular in 2010!

It all starts with a simplistic, yet adorable, save the date {above}. The invitation itself {below} features olive waves and traditional fonts. The chocolate invitation envelope boasts a wrap-around label which always gives your envelopes a polished look.
The RSVP card stands out from the rest of the suite with its pop of color.

The fonts, the fonts, the fonts!!!! Hip hip hooray for throwing the typical script fonts out the window!
The colors, the elephant {and the giraffe!}, the wrap around label and the clever fonts make this invitation suite picture perfect.
Ok, ok, I couldn't help it. I just had to show you the cake toppers from this wedding which were crafted by Hilary of Bunny with a Toolbelt. Check out her Etsy shop here,
In case you were wondering, Severine made these little labels herself. They look awesome. We just made them a little prettier by addressing them and making sure they weren't blank!
In case you were wondering, Severine is from Switzerland, so our pens were able to experience a little taste of a foreign language. They liked it. 
Thank you, Severine for sending your labels all the way over to us in the USA. We thoroughly enjoyed addressing them for you!
We're quite proud of our work and we l.o.v.e the finished result! By the way, we're pretty sure her guests will too!
