A word from Alice - studio stories from Alice Draws the Line

Hello again! 

On Saturday I went to a wedding fair held at Ludlow Racecourse. I’d only ever been to one wedding fair before and so I was looking forward to attending and meeting others that were exhibiting.

I took a selection of wedding stationery examples and cards to demonstrate my illustration style. I also had some of the placecard designs that I’ve done in the past. 

It was lovely to meet people planning the weddings - those who were just gathering ideas with nothing planned yet, through to those that were just sorting the final details. 

Hip Hip Hooray! bunting can be hung up for any celebration! Perfect for birthdays, anniversaries, engagements, weddings, parties, passing exams or driving tests, having a baby, mortgage approval, new home - anything!

The bunting is A6 in size and professionally printed on recycled card. It is hole punched and comes with thread ready for you to put together to suit the space you want to put it. It arrives in a labelled cardboard box, perfect for storage until the next celebration!

How do I preserve my wedding bouquet?

... this seems to be a question that many florists are asked, and that many people google. There are lots of different ways to preserve the beautiful blooms that you have at your wedding. One of these is this way - by having them painted by me!

I like to preserve wedding bouquets through illustration. Creating a bespoke piece of artwork for your wall.

I had the absolute pleasure of drawing Beth’s bouquet for her as a lasting memory of her beautiful bouquet from her wedding day.

The bouquet was created by Louise at May Rose Floral Design, Hereford. 

It was a December wedding and the bouquet included wax flowers, roses, olive leaf and ruscus.
