Amanda and Neal created a stylish letterpress invitation suite for their September celebration at the Barns at Wolf Trap. We collaborated with our friends at The Dandelion Patch on the suite, which featured sweet script fonts and letterpress printing in midnight ink on our white bamboo paper. The invitations, information cards, brunch invites and response cards were all tucked  inside of the suite’s wow-worthy statement piece: a custom floral watercolor invitation sleeve in varying shades of pink, purple, orange and emerald.

We worked with Kara at Nest Paper Studio to create these custom wedding invitations for a November celebration at the Annesdale Mansion in Memphis, Tennessee. In order to create a thick, 2-ply piece, we digitally printed both pieces of the invitation in a flood of hazel ink, then duplexed the two pieces together. The invitations feature our popular tawny matte foil stamping for both the text and the edge treatment, adding a sophisticated metallic touch. A hazel watercolor envelope liner tied the entire set together, which set the tone for this elegant fall affair.

Nina and Francisco worked with Sarah at the Windmill Paper Boutique to create their coaster save the dates. They created a custom, text-based design and used our Plaza calligraphy font by Sarah Hanna to add a touch of romance. Their save the dates were printed in blue shine foil, and ombre envelope liners in ocean-like hues complemented the wedding locale perfectly.

A beautiful array of soft blues and greens were featured together on this sea glass inspired version of our Keira invitation. Sarah and Robert chose letterpress printing in azure ink for the main text on their invitations, which added texture to the colorful, digitally printed piece. We duplexed the invitation and added azure edge paint to make the piece more substantial. Reply cards and event cards were printed to match, and a custom watercolor envelope liner added an extra layer of color to this unique invitation set.

We love the cool shades of blue on these custom watercolor wedding invitations. Printed for a wedding celebration in Mexico, the tranquil watercolors were digitally printed on our white bamboo paper and paired with espresso letterpress ink. A champagne metallic envelope added a touch of shimmer to the set, which included two versions of the reply card: one for the main event, and a second version that included reply options for a welcome party, rehearsal dinner, and farewell brunch.

We worked with Shayne at Ink Papery to create these darling invitations for Chelsea’s bridal shower. Letterpress printed in pink ink, the invitations feature our Plaza calligraphy font and a gorgeous patterned backing filled with romantic floral watercolors. We duplexed the letterpress invitation to the digitally printed patterned backing to make the invitation ultra thick, then edge painted the piece with pretty pink ink as a finishing touch. MaryKate Moon addressed the invitation envelopes in a pretty pink ink to match, and also calligraphed matching table cards and place cards for the celebration.

We’re hard at work with last minute preparations for the upcoming National Stationery Show, but we had to take a minute to share our 2014  National Stationery Show invitations. We’re loving the look of digital printing paired with foil stamping, so this year’s set included one of our vintage print patterns and a new watercolor fade pattern with tawny matte foil! A watercolor envelope liner tied the invitations together. Our BFF Bella Figura will be making an appearance at the show this year, so we printed a beautiful blind debossed invitation with tawny matte foil and custom hand calligraphy accents by Elizabeth Hardin on Bella Figura’s rich cotton paper. We’ll be launching a brand new Mitzvah album at the show, along with lots of new Everyday products, so be sure to stop by our booth – #2341 – to say hi!
