Pretty Invitation

I had our art department scan the envelopes from an invitation I received to an art auction benefiting The Bridge Breast Network. The outside envelope is black faux alligator, with an interior envelope crafted of handmade paper. You can’t see it in the photo, but the paper has a subtle sparkle to it, and I love the pink and black logo interpretation. The rumor is that Mike Thompson designed the invitation (the alligator envelope is a dead giveaway in my book).

Ju-Nel Home Tour

As my friend Adam can attest, I have become obsessed with the weather. I attribute this to getting old. Anyway, the weather this weekend going to be lovely, my friends. Let’s hope it keeps so that NEXT WEEKEND (I jumped the gun earlier) is the perfect weekend for the White Rock Home Tour and Art Festival. I love home tours—it saves me the trouble of knocking on the doors of strangers in East Dallas and begging for a looksee. (Rarely successful.) Anyway, this is a good event, benefitting a great cause (Hexter Elementary). After the jump are the words of my lovely and amazing friend Christine Rogers, who knows all about the tour’s bells and whistles.
