{Styled Chic} Branding Tip No. 6
Repetition Is Key
Repetition is key. Research has proven this.
Research has also suggested consumers must encounter your brand seven to twelve times before they’re ready to purchase.
So put yourself in front of your target audience over & over again. Repetition is key!

Burlap Banner Bienvenue - From Oh So Beautiful Paper
Having been off the blogging scene for months now there is no better way to get back into the game than changing up our look & adding to the Paper Cut family. What do you think of the new blog look? We have so many exciting projects to share and new things on the horizon. Not only are we growing at a fast pace, we had to get some help! We extended our internships to 6 months & have a fantastic group dedicated to the company’s success. We have brought on Carson as our PR/Marketing Intern, Kristy as our Production Intern & currently Emelizza is our Graphic Design Intern. We also have Terri on as a freelance designer & I couldn’t be happier to have each one of them. All are playing a vital role to expand the company, gaining experience in different fields while being team players.
Together we are creating new designs while making sure everything is moving along. So many fresh & new things are happening for Paper Cut so you must stay tuned! Carson will be blogging about our current designs leaving the studio & with this new look you will definitely be on the edge of your seat to read the next post! Be sure to follow her on Twitter as well at @PaperCut_CS. She will be sharing insight into the day to day fun that goes on at the studio & sharing all the new designs leaving the studio right next to me @Paper_Cut at our studio space in Studio 404 Weddings @404weddings.
Don’t forget to check out the new window display at Studio 404 Weddings and the studio’s new website! Thanks Charla for getting that setup.
We started posting lots more of inspiration on Pinterest as well so be sure to see what inspires the custom designs & branding we have been working on. “Pinterest lets you organize and share all the beautiful things you find on the web. People use pinboards to plan their weddings, decorate their homes, and organize their favorite recipes.” It is such a great site to gather all these images. We have been inspired & can’t wait to share all the new designs & projects we have been working on. So welcome back, bienvenue & please enjoy! -xx
{Custom} Gold, Silver & Pewter Baroque Invitations
Lynette came to me wanting a Rehearsal dinner invitation for her daughter’s wedding in Napa. She wanted it to be very baroque inspired with hues of gold, silver & pewter. She wanted a vintage look & feel that was very classic. She was also inspired by a sort of dreamy mirror effect. The invitation turned out beautifully when printed on the metallic card stock and we printed envelopes to match with a gorgeous digital calligraphy font.
We then worked on custom menu cards in two versions. One for the adults and a few for the children that would be attending. For the event we also created custom monogrammed moire luncheon napkins in gold with silver imprint. They looked fabulous!
After the dinner elements were complete, Ashley knew she wanted me to design some custom thank you cards. We incorporated the monogram “V” used on the menu cards and combined it all in a rich pewter printed on a natural white cotton paper and envelopes to match. The complete set was unified and carried the theme throughout.
This suite included:
• Rehearsal Dinner Invitation & printed envelopes
• Rehearsal Dinner Menu cards in two versions (Adult & Children)
• Custom Silver Foil Monogrammed Moire Napkins in Gold
• Monogram Thank You cards
Specs:
• Rehearsal Dinner Invitation: Digitally printed on White Micah card stock with matching metallic Ecru Micah printed envelopes
• Rehearsal Dinner Menu: Digitally printed on Pyrite metallic card stock
• Napkins: Gold Moire with silver foil embossed
• Thank You cards: Digitally printed on Natural white cotton card stock for both main cards and envelopes

{Studio} Long Beach Wedding Boutique
I knew 2010 was going to be fantastic. I’ve worked long and hard and never thought this day would come. I meet so many amazing wedding professionals through The Long Beach Wedding Collective who turned out to just be great friends as well. Among them three in particular were big dreamers just like me.
Having a consultation spot to meet clients has become a priority for me this year and now it is coming to life. Together with Erica of Erica O’Brien Cake Design, Amy of Bride & Bloom Flowers and Charla of charla BLUE Photography we have collaborated to have an amazing consultation space to meet with our clients. We are calling it the Long Beach Wedding Boutique because not only can you have a consultation with me about your stationery needs, but you might want to arrange a time to meet Erica about a tasty & unique cake, have Amy design a bouquet that captures your unique personality or Charla who loves capturing life’s special moments.
We finally found the perfect studio space and it came with a fantastic store front window which will serve as an excellent display of all our work. We are beyond excited. I invite you to watch our journey of it coming to life and when we are all ready and open, stop on by!
