Awards Season: Not Over Yet!

The Trendy Awards, given out yearly by Stationery Trends Magazine, are a way for retailers and consumers to recognize the very best in stationery. Luscious Verde is thrilled to be honored in four categories: Baby, Bridal, Green, and Holiday. Last year we took home two Trendy Awards in the Baby and Green categories. We need your help to keep our streak going! To vote for our entries, just go to their respective pages and scroll through until you find our images, and give 'em a big old Thumbs Up.

Our Baby entry is from our new Essentials catalog and features a super-sweet custom die-cut mobile, Bridal focuses on deep purple die-cut poppies on a two-layer white cardstock, and Holiday is a fun fold-over gray card with a custom-cut frame featuring a family's name and an inscription under the photo. Lastly, Green is one of our favorites and also from the Essentials line. The garden party motif replicates a watercolor produced on 100 percent post-consumer recycled paper.

Vote Early, Vote Often

Hey everybody! This is just a quick note to let you know that voting for the annual Trendys has begun today. Luscious Verde would deeply appreciate your vote -- we're up against some pretty good competition. But, of course, we do think we're pretty awesome. Help us repeat our victories from last year!

The Essential Luscious Verde

Our inspiration today comes from our new Essentials catalog, which was shipped out to most people this past snowy Friday. The main invitation accents the fresh and playful look of the purple poppies. It's shown with an additional layer and Beet envelope liner. The look still has the white paper stock that many brides have been craving for their custom wedding invitations, but the die-cut purple poppies set the invitation apart and highlight the couple's personality. Purple is still definitely a hot color for spring and fall weddings, especially paired with our bright White Smooth and Kiwi green. Earthy elements like the Kiwi work fantastically well with the purple and white pairing.

Just Because...

Valentine's Day is over doesn't mean that the Month of Love should be! Here's our Love Song of the Week, one that was sure to be the soundtrack to many a relationship. Have a great Monday!

Whole Lotta Love

We would be totally remiss if we didn't wish all of our wonderful Luscious Verde fans out there a Happy Valentine's Day! And just to remind you, we're celebrating it all month long with three awesome specials:

-- Half-off RSVP sets on all wedding orders

(order doesn't need to be approved by the end of the month, just submitted by the end of the month)

-- 15 percent off all wedding save-the-dates

-- Couples stationery: order 75, get 25 free!

OK, have fun today (but not too much fun)!
