This past Friday, the lovely ladies of 100 layer cake, parcel post and oh, hello friend hosted a fabulous event at Urbanic Paper Boutique. It was filled with cupcakes, wine, food and lots of fellow bloggers. I thought I would share a few snippets from the event.

I worked with Danni at Oh, Hello Friend on the printed pieces and signage. Lemonade provided the food which was fabulous!! My favorite… the cous cous with wild mushrooms and truffle vinaigrette… YUM! The adorable miniature cupcakes were provided by the fabulous Vanilla Bake shop.

Although there were lots of fabulous bloggers at the event, I wanted to mention a few that I had the pleasure of meeting and chatting with. If you have not checked out their blogs yet, I suggest you get to it!! : 100 Layer Cake; Oh, Hello Friend, Utterly Engaged (the absolutely breathtaking online wedding magazine); Grey Likes Weddings; Green Wedding Shoes; Heart of Light; Beach Bungalow 8; The Flash Dance; and Bonnie Tsang.

Here is a peek into the fabulous swag bags we all were lucky to go home with. To start I have to admit one of my favorite things in there were the chocolate chip cookies topped with sea salt from 100 layer cake. They were absolutely fabulous. Did you girls make those? I would love the recipe!? Next up this adorable glassine envelope with a doily sewn at the top from Oh, Hello Friend. Inside there was a little mirror, book plate and an adorable little barrette that I have been wearing ever since (thanks Danni!). The adorable blue packet of goodies was from white elephant and included gift tags and a tiny pin. The next item is this absolutely adorable notepad from Audrey at parcel post. LOVE LOVE LOVE!! This adorable handmade tiny journal is from Tiny Pine Press. This adorable glassine envelope was filled with kraft colored labels, thank you Paper Pastries! These cookies from Sweet Ambs were probably the prettiest cookies I had ever seen! Check out the detailed cameo! Stunning! Loving the cupcake wall art from Tweet Heart Wall Art. Lastly was the packet from yours truly. We used kraft bags that we custom printed and sealed with a label. Inside we included samples of our chipboard post cards, plantable seed cards, coasters and letterpress notes. I am loving all my goodies right now. Again thank you lovely ladies for hosting and thank you Audrey for having us over to your fabulous shop!!
