A quick congratulations to metalMe by Angie! Her Zig Zag earrings (one of my favs) is featured in a new zig zag treasury on etsy.com!

Check out the whole Zig Zag Treasury...

The mini re-vamp to selenesreach.blogspot.com is finished!

For now, there is a new template and side organization in use. These changes are temporary while a branding effort is underway. Look for a brand new set up in the future!

Other changes: The store front is it's own section with more details about listed items. Everywhere Selene's Reach can be found on the web, besides Etsy and the blog, also has it's own little home. The photo has been updated to a streaming slideshow from Selene's Reach's Flickr page. An RSS feed for both posts and comments has been added so you can be the first to know when something new is on the way. And my new favorite: the Blog List! A new feature via Blogger's gagets, the Blog List allows titles or short exerpts from others' blogs to appear in the side bar.

Enjoy! :)

Let's start with this - If you are MK getting married on 6/28 or MV on 3/2009...

The below are concepts for you. You are more than welcome to read but somethings may look familiar in the future. On that note, let's continue on...





In past posts a couple of wedding things have been mentioned - one gift design and the new one, a design for a group card. Both I have been EXTREMELY thrilled to work on. For MV, who's wedding isn't actually until March of 2009, I am giving a large set of Thank You cards. The design is based on her invitations. Strong and delicate. This is also the first set of cards designed to use two ink colors - black and silver. There were two designs originally, but the first wasn't based on the invite and screamed more of the designer's personality than MV's.

Group Card! So a friend from high school is getting married in almost 2 weeks (how exciting!!) and the high school friends are going in on a group gift... I'm not going to say what but it's fun... very fun...

Displayed are some sketches for the card that will be signed by the group of gift givers. Because of the number of people going in on the gift, this will be an over sized card - 8.5" x 11.5" - so there is plenty of room for a short message from everyone. Since the first sketch (image1 ), a short quote has been chosen (image 2) and the beginning of a design developed based on a computer design. While the details are currently on the computer, and based on a unique, computer generated image (image 3), the final design will be hand designed.
