You can call me Gill (the G is like Geoff)! I’m the one-woman show making and designing your gorgeous foil wedding invites and day-of items.

Copper+Blush runs from my home studio in Waterloo, Ontario. Specializing in custom foil wedding stationery and best known for foil cards & address labels on Etsy.

When I’m not in my studio, you might find me shouting out answers to Jeopardy reruns (it’s a LOT easier when you’ve seen the episode already) or binge-hate-watching Love is Blind. Sundays are for cheering on the Chiefs with my wonderful video game-loving husband.

hey new friend!

Gillian is quite possibly the kindest and most lovely person to work with! We absolutely love her shop and appreciate her empathy.

As a kid, I was a craft-obsessed mess maker. Anywhere I went, there was a trail of paper scraps and paint droplets left behind.

As I got older, my tastes become more refined. I graduated from safety scissors at my kitchen table to electronic paper-cutting machines. And instead of mixing tiny packets of Easy Bake batter, I’m now the cheesecake queen of my family.

So it’s really not surprising that my favourite part of creating wedding invitations is all the colourful paper I’m surrounded by and shiny bits of foil I find all over myself.

Looking back, I’ve always been a creator. Now I just get to do it with you for one of the most exciting days of your life. I get to share (if only just a little bit) in making that special day one you and your guests will remember for a lifetime.

You love getting snail mail

Shiny metallics just HAVE to be part of your big day

You've been obsessively pinning invite inspo since your got engaged (okay, even before that...)

You know you deserve nice things once in a while



we'd be a great fit if...

I know your wedding invitations are kind of a big deal and that you’re trusting me with designing your guests’ first impression of your day. I don’t take that lightly.

My number one goal is really getting to know you two and your style, learning your story, and figuring out what you want and need. Translating that into beautiful pieces of paper you will be SO excited to send is my little bit of magic!

What drives me is imagining your guests opening your invitations, being SO excited to put them on their fridge.

i pride myself on...
