Large Wedding Card/Gift Boxes




Because I started years ago creating books and have a great love for it,  I haven't always had the same feelings for the card boxes, but lately I'm having a great time with them!  I really like adding lost of details, colors and mixing up prints.  I have a few in the works with lots of bling that I can't wait to finish!  Please send an email with ideas or if you want me to come up with some.  kelly@elegantlyboundbooks.com Thanks!

New Envelope Guest Book Options!

Colorful Envelopes!  What a great way to add more color to your custom envelope wedding guest book!
I would be happy to mix them up too!  Add 2 to 3 colors per page. 

Here is an example of one I just created this week!

I have been using colorful printed pages when people ask. 
I just added the option to the envelope guest book listing in my shop.

Love Teal?

I have always loved the color teal, so rich and elegant but it can still be fun and modern.  You can pair teal with many other colors like copper, yellow, black, lime, gold, orange, navy, olive and always ivory or white.  I'm starting to see it alot, brides using more then just the two or three color schemes.  This allows you to be more flexible with the color of items in your wedding and keep things from getting to matchy matchy.
