Pinkerton Designs is a Seattle based firm that is run by Penny Eversole. We have featured them in the past as they have some adorable designs for not just Save the Dates but also for holidays and birthday cards. I found out about Pinkerton through my husband who knows Penny’s husband from business school. Back then Pinkerton only sold it’s cards direct online as well as in local stationary stores in the greater Chicago area. But now they also have cards available at Wedding Paper Divas which is great. They have some wonderful Save the Date postcards. Two of my favorites are below….
Postage Tag
This is a wonderful choice as a Save the Date postcard. The words “Save the Date” are highlighted in light green font and a slate grey blue stripe balances it out on the bottom of the card. I love the interplay between the block letters of “Save” and “Date” that are separated by the cursive “the”. It makes it formal yet casual. The actual date of your wedding is included in a nice postage stamp look on the right that includes the date as the cost! How clever. Of course that is why this Save the Date postcard is called Postage Tag. All you need to do is choose a great engagement picture and you will be all set.
Diamond Date
I hope your fiance bought you the most beautiful diamond engagement ring! And if so perhaps you want a Save the Date postcard that plays up the diamond theme that is part of the engagement ritual. This Save the Date by Pinkerton Design does this in a humorous way by using a Diamond shape and creating a sky sign that tells your guests to Save the Date because we are getting hitched! It also drops the line at the bottom that you are “No Longer Available”. Yes congrats as you are officially taken and you want all your friends and family to know about it. The clouds in the background add to the light airy humor of the Save the Dates postcard.
