I printed some October wedding invitations this week and it made me long for autumn! I’m dreaming of wearing jeans, walking on crunchy leaves and putting turtlenecks on my dog. I love this warm orange ink color – I mixed it using yellow, rubine red and a tiny bit of 477U brown.

How many of you have seen 500 Days of Summer? I saw it the other night and liked it a lot- but one scene that grabbed me was when Tom went to the party and the screen split into ‘expection’ and ‘reality’. I was really fascinated by this, I think I could watch an entire [...]

My new favorite ink color these days is a deep Rose. Light purple seemed to have a revival in ‘07 and ‘08, but mixing it with some magenta produces this lovely shade. I think it goes well with both dark gray and dark brown inks for text…can’t wait to share more pictures once the new [...]

This week I’m working hard on getting the new website put together. Yesterday I finished printing samples and today I’m working on photography. Here’s a sneak peek of the wedding line, including my favorite flower – hydrangea.
Part of the new line includes matching thank you notes for most invitations, which you can buy in packs [...]

I love this invitation from last week. The bride and groom are from New York and London, so the groom designed their invitation to include both skylines bleeding into one. Getting good coverage on this dark plum ink color was a bit of a challenge. I ended up breaking the plate up so I could [...]

One of the invitations from last week. I printed Save the Dates a few months back for this wedding, and the bride and groom chose the same steel and chocolate brown color scheme for their invitations. Very nice choices I think.

I printed two wedding invitation jobs this week for couples getting married in my hometown of Philly. One is taking place on a farm in the suburbs north of the city, and this one is taking place at the awesomely titled Pennsylvania Headquarters of the Society of the Colonial Dames. Philadelphia has so many stunning [...]
dark ink colors

Today I delivered this wedding invitation with very dark inks. The clients chose a vibrant combination of burgundy and navy blue elm leaves. Even though each piece was a single ink color, I had to break these into two batches: graphics getting double ink, and text single ink. This happens sometimes with very dark ink [...]

I had to share these shots of a wedding invitation I recently printed, designed by the very talented Missy Chimovitz of Fifty Foot Girl. I think the colors are gorgeous and the arts & crafts style is such a nice pairing with letterpress.
Missy and I also worked together a few years ago on her sister’s [...]
