New Stationery Product to Benefit Pink Initiative and Breast Cancer Awareness

Joyful Heart Design To Donate Proceeds of New Stationery Product to Pink Initiative in Support of Breast Cancer Awareness

Lubbock, Texas - October 6, 2009
Invitation and stationery company Joyful Heart Design has designed a new product to benefit Pink Initiative in response to Pink Initiative’s Be the Change $10,000 Challenge for October and National Breast Cancer Awareness Month. The product is a set of note cards displaying a silver princess crown printed on white linen paper and embellished with a pink jewel. The set comes wrapped with pink ribbon and is being sold by Joyful Heart Design on the company’s website, www.JoyfulHeartDesign.com/pinkinitiative or by calling 806-787-1450.

Pink Initiative is a community of wedding industry professionals passionate about funding awareness, outreach, education and research for breast cancer. “During our first twelve months, Pink Initiative’s board of directors and our growing group of vendor sponsors have taken our message to heart proudly displaying our logo on websites and blogs, spreading our message on Twitter, and kindly giving more than $7,000 thus far,” reported Emilie Sommer, founder of Pink Initiative and professional photographer with emilie inc.

Joyful Heart Design will also donate 10% of proceeds from all invitation and stationery items containing the color pink which are purchased during the month of October to Pink Initiative.

“I am honored to be a Pink Initiative sponsor and hope to inspire others with these products and encourage people to celebrate life now,” said JoDitt Williams, founder of Joyful Heart Design.

An updated report of funds raised to date can be found at http://pinkinitiative.org as well as a list of participating wedding vendors, fund raising ideas, and information on how to become a pink initiative sponsor.

Zoo Theme Little Girls Birthday Party

Jennifer recently contacted me and asked if I could change up my Zebra Print & Pink Ribbon Baby Shower Invitation a little to make it a birthday invite for her 2 year old little girl. They were going to have her party at the zoo and this invite would be just perfect.

I said, "Absolutely! Everything I do is custom-designed, so that is no problem."

After the party she sent me some photos and they are SO adorable that I just had to share them.
(with Jenn's permission, of course.)

Isn't she a cutie!!! And look at that amazing cake!

I bet those little girls had a blast at her birthday party at the zoo.

Here's what Jennifer wrote:
We loved the birthday invitations and stationary you made for our
2 year old!  They were perfect for her party and the turnaround time
was amazing!  Thank you so much for doing such a fabulous job.

Sweet Fifteen Zebra Print and Pink Ribbon Invitation

Have you noticed how popular zebra print is with women and girls of all ages? Teens and pre-teens love to wear zebra print tops and skirts, college age gals decorate their rooms with zebra print, young moms use zebra print in their baby decorations, executive ladies are stylin' with their zebra print computer cases and eyeglasses, sassy women of all ages carry zebra print handbags and purses . . .

My zebra print and pink ribbon invitation is equally as versatile. It can be used for many different types of events, including baby showers, bridal showers, bachelorette parties, birth announcements, birthday parties, girl's night out parties, and any other type of girly party you can dream up. And, of course I have matching thank you notes and personalized stationery.

I recently had a customer use this design for her daughter's Sweet Fifteen celebration. (Yes, some people celebrate Sweet Fifteen, rather than Sweet Sixteen.) I have also used this design as a Sweet Sixteen celebration invitation.

I am a Brides Against Breast Cancer supporter

I do not know anyone, myself included who has not been affected by breast cancer in some form or fashion. Since October is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month, I always donate 10% of my October sales of pink items to help with this cause.



I recently discovered a great organization called, BRIDES AGAINST BREAST CANCER that holds Wedding Gown Sales to benefit the Making Memories Breast Cancer Foundation. The Making Memories Breast Cancer Foundations mission is:

“To provide an opportunity for metastatic breast cancer patients’ dream or wish to be fulfilled by providing a special time of 'Making Memories' together with their families, a chance that might not have become a reality without the assistance of the Making Memories Breast Cancer Foundation."

And also: "To advance the awareness of breast cancer and to educate the public about the vast resources and support available to breast cancer patients and their families."

So, this month, I will donate 10% of sales of all items from my website (including custom orders) that contain the color pink anywhere on them to the Making Memories Breast Cancer Foundation.

If you would like to donate your wedding dress to be sold to help grant wishes for metastatic breast cancer patients, you can find out more info at: http://bridesagainstbreastcancer.org/

Here are some pink items from my website at www.JoyfulHeartdesign.com:

Bold, Beautiful, Yet Modest Weddings

Just because you want to use a bold color in your wedding (like bright orange, hot pink or lime green) doesn't mean the styles of your wedding gown and bride's maid's dresses have to be bold. Many brides today are opting for more modest gowns---ones that don't expose too much back, shoulder or cleavage. Choosing to wear a more modest style does not mean your wedding has to be dull, however. Don't be afraid to use lots of color in your dresses, flowers and decorations. How about hot pink dresses with modest cap sleeves and bright orange sashes. Or rich turquoise blue tablecloths with bright yellow and green centerpieces (try placing lemons and limes in clear glass bowls, like photo above from theknot.com, or cut them in half and use them as place card holders.)

Your wedding invitations, stationery and other accessories should reflect the same style as the overall style of your wedding, be it bold and colorful, elegant or soft and sweet. Can't find an invitation that is available in your colors that matches your style or theme? I've heard the same complaint from many brides. That's why I offer contemporary wedding invitations that are FULLY CUSTOMIZABLE. Any of my designs can be created in any color combination you can think up, with as much text as will fit on the page, in any font you like.
