Graphic & Glitz

July 7, 2011 by Carrie Sellman

If I had to describe today’s feature in one word it would be lovely!  Maybe that’s because I love the soft color palette of charcoal, white and rose with a subtle touch of gold.  Maybe it’s the darling mix of hearts and stars.  But to me, this incredible display portrays the feeling of love.  You know that feeling… the warm rush that comes over you, the swell in your stomach, the stars in your eyes.  If you had to capture that feeling, I think it would look something like this!

An amazing team of individuals took an inspiration board, applied their various talents and created this dreamy photo shoot.  Obviously I am somewhat smitten with the results!  So let’s take a look at this lovely Graphic & Glitz tablescape….

Am I right?  It’s just lovely!  And I especially love these chalkboard cookies created by Shauna Younge… so charming!  {Learn how to make these cuties yourself on Shauna’s Blog.}  Shauna also designed custom candy bars, popcorn boxes, cookies, and lollipops for this theme.  A-dor-able!

The cake is simple yet modern and creates the perfect focal point on the dessert table.  What else would we expect from Cocoa & Fig?!?  You know we ♥ Cocoa & Fig!

Oh my!  The sequined star stir sticks, created by Maddy Hague, are one of my favorite little details!  Learn how to make them HERE on Maddy’s blog, the Inspired Bride, along with some of the other great DIY’s from this shoot including the flower arrangements and tissue paper backdrop.  Be sure to hop over for the tutorials and then stay for the eye candy!

You can also see more of this delightful Graphic & Glitz Photo Shoot on 100 Layer Cake.  Enjoy!
