Playful Odin Wedding Invitations with Shiny Chevron Foil Stamping

This customization of our Odin design is one of our absolute favorites.  We worked with Papier Girl to create these playful wedding invitations, which pair our orchid letterpress ink with silver shine foil stamping and Stella, one of our exclusive calligraphy fonts. Our bubbly Odin motif was used on the invitations and the coordinating reply cards and events card. The best part? The backside of the events card features the most amazing silver shine chevron patterning and a giant monogram!

Colorful Odin Letterpress Save the Date

Every client has a set budget and it can be difficult to balance cost with design.  Judy Paulen Designs knows just how to do this. By scaling the save the date size down from the standard, they free up a little room to add all the bells and whistles the client was hoping to include. The Odin design is pretty dynamic to begin with and when given the opportunity to add embellishments, the back pattern and envelope liner served as a perfect compliment.

Bilingual Letterpress Odin Wedding Invitation Suite

Here at Smock our Odin design is one of the invitations in particular that we get really excited about seeing customized and personalized.  And we feel that our friend, Cheryl at Paper Studio in Ontario, Canada did a fabulous job dreaming up this Odin suite.  Letterpressed in taupe and eggplant inks this bilingual set includes an English language invitation and a French language invitation.  The back of each card is offset printed in our willoughby pattern in taupe, adding even more personality to this lively suite.  The envelopes are lined in metallic camel providing a picture perfect contrast against their wedding colors.

High Spirited Letterpress Wedding Invitations

Amber at Hitched in Washington, DC submitted this lovely Odin wedding invitation suite to us for printing.  Letterpress printed in our navy ink and a custom purple ink, the combination of these two cool tones brings a feeling of joy to these modern invitations.  This set definitely has it all.  Each piece is letterpressed on our luxurious 2-ply bamboo paper and matches perfectly back to the charming and vivid invitation.  But we think the focal point of this suite is the letterpressed sleeve in our pastis pattern adding even more flair with the beautifully textured lines.  We thought this would be a fun and bubbly set to share with you at the start of the summer wedding season!

Design Contest Winner: Be Lucky in Love with these Offset Save the Dates

Cori at Social Graces in Nashville, Tennessee sent us this adorable Odin customization!  These offset printed save the dates are both personalized and creative, and were printed in a very cool color palette of our sea mist + grass inks. When we asked Cori what inspired this design she told us that the bride was drawn to the fun font style and whimsical frame, and loved how these elements balanced the striped background.  The wedding reception will be on her family’s horse farm, so the couple thought it would be appropriate to include a horseshoe.  Here at Smock, we believe these save the dates are lucky!  Common legend is that keeping the ends of a horseshoe point up keeps all of the good luck in. Congrats to the lucky bride and groom, and bravo to Social Graces for such an inspired design!

Oceanic Odin Offset additions!

Celia at Urbanic came to us for these “day of” pieces for a September wedding. Our Odin design was a perfect fit, especially when designed using the right cartouche and blend of our ocean and peacock inks. Carrying the design over to the table numbers and place cards was a great way to make the motifs stand out at the reception.
