Custom Roxbury Letterpress Birth Announcements

We love the pattern play on these sweet birth announcements that we printed for Luke’s arrival last summer. Inspired by our Roxbury design, these letterpress birth announcements pair sea mist and midnight inks on our white paper, with a digitally printed black & white photo as the main focus. A striped patterned envelope liner added some contrast to the chevron patterning used on the announcement.

25th Wedding Anniversary Celebration Invitations

For John and Linda’s 25th wedding anniversary celebration, we customized our Galena invitation design in rich cardinal ink — a color we find quite fitting for a soirée on Valentine’s Day! The color was used throughout the set: cardinal edge paint adorned the invitations, while grayling patterned envelope liners in cardinal ink made for a colorful addition on the envelopes.

Gold foil photo save the dates

For Morgan and Hunter’s custom photo save the dates, we digitally printed one of their beautiful engagement photos before adding a touch of gold matte foil. A second card with additional information — including a wedding website — was attached to the photo card with a shiny gold grommet. Rainier patterned envelope liners added a splash of color to these elegant photo save the dates.

Hot Pink + Robin’s Egg Roxbury Bat Mitzvah Invitations and social notes

Letterpress printed in a vibrant color pairing of hot pink and Robin’s egg blue, this customization of our Roxbury invitation is both festive and fun. We created reply cards, a party card, and a brunch card to accompany Ava’s Bat Mitzvah invitations, along with simple social notes to match. Each piece was sent out in style: the invitation and social note envelopes each featured colorful patterned envelope liners, and we even created a custom stamp design to match the set!
