Sophisticated springtime rehearsal dinner invitations

For their springtime rehearsal dinner at the University Club of Memphis, Carolyn and Keithley customized our Chapman design with elegant laurels from our motif library. The invitations were printed in a sophisticated color palette of sage and dove inks on our ivory paper, and paired with a sage green watercolor envelope liner. Our Belmont die-cut shape added a sleek finish to this elegant invitation set!

Hekla Letterpress Baby Shower Invitations

We can customize any of our wedding designs to fit your occasion. Consider customizing our modern Hekla design for your baby shower invitations. This design would work well regardless of the gender of the baby – but boy oh boy do we love the phrasing that Inscriptions on the Boulevard used to announce that this is indeed for a baby boy.

Dawson Design – Letterpressed in Dove + Pewter

Dawson has always been one of our dealers very favorites – and we adore this customization submitted to us by By Invitation Only in Arkansas.  Opting for our largest square size, the invitation looks even more modern and ever so chic.  The softer color palette carried throughout and a distinguish looking envelope lining maintains sophistication on these.

Joyful Letterpress Christmas Cards

We were thrilled to have the opportunity to print these joyful letterpress Christmas cards. The festive sleeve — complete with decorative ornaments and a bright color palette — helps keep these cards unique. What makes them even better? They just happen to be for Erin – one of our beloved Smock dealers and the owner of By Invitation Only!

Amazing Spin on Our Wonderful Sutton Design

This amazing Sutton wedding invitation suite was put together by one of our wonderful stores – Kate’s Paperie. We love the event card on this suite with the perforated and removable reply postcard.

Silver & Dove Letterpress

The aptly named silver and dove inks make this letterpress wedding invitation set look both rich and tranquil.  Gus & Ruby Letterpress strikes again with this custom Engadine invitation.  The two-tone look draws the eye and the use of a #10 invite with a business card-sized reception card makes this one of our favorites.

Letterpressed Wedding Invitations with a Conservative Color Palette

This stellar custom invitation suite was submitted to us by our good friend Jessica at Judy Paulen Designs in New York, NY.  With the perfect design elements on the invitation, this only quietly calls for attention-and we just love that!  We absolutely adore the soft, subtle ink palette which is the perfect match to the couple’s fabulous venue in Chicago, Illinois.  The neutral and conservative pairing of our dove and pewter inks look positively remarkable!  And then there’s the metallic platinum envelope liner providing the perfect color contrast.

Snowy + Sweet Letterpress Christmas Cards!

There’s no better compliment than when a store asks us to print their own cards. Julie from Sweet Paper in La Jolla, CA used our Pearl design in such a clever way. I think this might be my favorite Christmas card to date! I may have to steal the idea for myself 🙂 Thanks Julie!
