A colorful day of printing…here is one of the wedding invitations I printed this afternoon. I’m trying some new designs, and I like the combination of flower and ink for this set. I have some more images to post but my camera battery just konked out. I’ll be sure to shoot some [...]

It was a 2-color project which required some complicated registration, and was a wonderful piece to produce. Catalone is binding this book in-house, and has promised [...]
