In true obsessive form, I went a little overboard with the hand-lettering thing and flipped through my sketchbook for more inspiration for greeting cards. I recently attended a cousin’s wedding and, without having purchased a card (because they were all horrible), I decided a pretty, fliffy-looking hand-lettered card would be better. Being very unorganized that day (after a full day of travelling), I neglected to tape the card to the box. Hopefully it will stay on under the ribbon via the magic of static electriciy. At first I was at a loss because I could NOT think of a single thing that wasn’t “Happy Wedding!” or something just as profound. I didn’t really come up with anything particularly profound; it actually was inspired by a quote from J.M. Barrie’s Peter Pan. “To die would be an awfully big adventure”. Of course, dying is not really appropriate for a wedding card, so I came up with this:
