Okay, I admit it. I have never read Shel Silverstein's The Giving Tree, but I do love the look of these save-the-dates. And guess what? They're free for the taking.
I found this free wedding template over at Merriment Design - a lovely blog that's all about sharing awesome craft and design ideas.
Kathy, who owns the blog, explains that The Giving Tree save the dates were created by Adam Siegel for his fall nuptials. Shel Silverstein's classic children's book has special meaning to him and Cristin (his partner).
In the spirit of giving, Adam and Cristin are sharing their template for free. All that is requested is that anyone who uses it leaves a comment at Merriment Design or email Kathy at Merriment Design.
Here are the supplies that are needed:
For complete instructions on how to create your Giving Tree save-the-dates, go to Merriment Design.
Please note that if you don't have Adobe Illustrator and you love this design, don't give up! Perhaps you know a friend who is a graphic designer that could modify the text for you? Perhaps a talented Etysian could take on the task for a nominal fee?
Maybe there's another book that has special meaning to you and your sweetie and this will spark some literary save-the -date ideas of your own! If so, let me know. I'd love to hear all about it.
