poppy Collection feature: Field of Flowers

This sweet little design has been one of our most popular over the past year. Perfectly suited to a garden wedding, the colour can be matched to your wedding colour scheme.

If a one colour design isn't for you, Field of Flowers can easily become a two colour design. For example, this is Ruby and Silver:

Poppy Collection feature: Pinstripe

This design is actually inspired by Adrian's business shirts. I love pinstripes - they have a real class about them, be it on a shirt, wallpaper, website background or printed materials. I don't know what it is that does it!

As this design is a little more formal, it works best in darker colours and as a one colour design. Which makes Pinstripe one of the most affordable designs in the Poppy Collection.

Poppy Collection feature: Lovebirds

Because letterpress printing is so tactile, wedding invitations don't need to be complex. With this in mind, we created the Lovebirds design. Sweet and simple, it lets the printing do all the talking.

Isn't it beautiful how birds pair off?

Poppy Collection feature: Leaf Drops

Leaves always make a beautiful image. And they're perfect if you have a colour theme, but are unsure about using a specific pattern or graphic in your stationery.

The inspiration for this stationery suite came from all the gorgeous filigree jewellery that I've seen in stores recently. The design works well in a lot of colour combinations, making it quite versatile. Personally, it's one of my favourites. Visit our website to see the full suite.

Poppy Collection feature: Autumn Leaves

I'm a big plant lover, so a lot of our designs use branches, leaves, flowers and nature. This design is no exception. These leaves actually come from a tree in another of our designs, but I loved them so much I had to create a design just for them. Originally designed for an Autumn wedding, the colours can be modified to suit any season.

Steel, silver and royal blue for a winter wedding:

Or watermelon, sunset and apple for a summer wedding, which is my personal favourite:

Poppy Collection feature: Maidenhair

I have a maiden hair fern that sits next to my bathroom sink, so I look at it while brushing my teeth and getting ready for the day (which, with a baby, can be mid-afternoon some days). I've always loved maiden hair ferns, but I have a real black thumb when it comes to plants, so I've also killed a few in my time as well. In November last year I decided it was time to use the fern in a new design. Mainly because I figured I'd unwillingly kill the plant soon so I should make the most of it.

So I took some photos and got to work.

Then created the illustration.


The final design is actually one of my very favourites. It's feminine without being too frilly, and would be perfect for a mild spring or summer wedding. These ferns look so fresh, and I think that lends well to the design.

I'm not sure why, but the fern has taken off. It's now far too big to sit next to my bathroom sink, and I actually have to move it if I want to wash my hands. I think it just likes being the centre of attention.
