Apologies for the silence! Have had a number of custom toppers in the last few weeks and busy, busy. A lot of fun to work on. I wanted to shoot the most recent to share, but my camera is at the shop needing repair {5 year olds!}
It was a fun topper with a heart and arrow and paper elements for the tiers of the cake. The pieces are inspired and include the bride's stationery from Cheree Berry, she is great to work with! Her designs are full of color and pattern and awash in happy-full-ness. Below are shots from Cheree's wedding, featured in MS Weddings, Summer 09 - I really love all of the paper elements she created and how they are carried throughout the wedding including large printed napkins, favor bags, and ceremony signs. Her invitation was a series of nested envelopes and cards, each with a different pattern. I used to those papers and patterns to create a little 3D garland for the cake and some dec. for the top.
