Theme Wedding - The Starry Night

Recently Matthew Wengerd of A Fine Press, a custom event stationery boutique in Florida, blogged about some quillwork he admired. I noticed he had come across something new and quite exciting... a wedding photo shoot based on a favorite painting of mine, van Gogh's The Starry Night. Rachel Hanson, of Rachel Hanson Designs, was responsible for the menu and seating card graphics. Immediately drawn to the swirls, she realized this was the perfect opportunity to try her hand at paper quilling, something she had been intending for some time.
Rachel designed lovely French-inspired menu cards and enhanced them with quilled scrolls and colors that perfectly complimented the theme.She scripted the names of Van Gogh, his family, close friends, and even the doctor who worked on his ear (gotta love a quiller with a sense of humor) on elegant, quilled place cards.
