Our Cora design served as the template for Hanae and Drew’s Floridian inspired wedding invitations in gold foil. They worked with our friends at Wynwood Letterpress who helped their invitation vision come to life. Shades of blue botanicals created an organic watercolor frame. Further, this element added a softer side to a more structured typography layout in Gold Matte foil. Finally, a custom envelope liner pattern featuring watercolor palms enhanced the Floridian feel of this suite.
These modern black letterpress wedding invitations featuring a playful script accent set a contemporary tone. The couple worked with our friends at Penny Post who helped shape this Splash customization. Originally, the design featured a vertical layout, but they decided to change it up by using a horizontal canvas. Similarly, the set-up of the reply and details cards mimicked the overall design of the invitation as well. As the final touch, a solid Hunter green envelope liner added a splash of color to this tonal set.
The season of engagements and save the dates is now upon us! We worked with Silberman Brown Stationers to create these photo save the dates with copper foil accents. Becky and Andrew married in Leavenworth, Washington this past September. A village in the Cascade Mountains surrounded by Alpine-style buildings, Nutcracker Museum displays as well as all the trees you could possibly imagine. It’s safe to say they needed a save the date that would match this aesthetic. Pictured in the middle are Becky and Andrew front and center walking through the rugged terrain. This image certainly set the stage for their wedding day to come. Copper Matte foil used as the border around the photo and for some of the typography added a metallic accent. Last but not least, watercolor tree imagery topped off the design.
Our flagship store helped Mia and Joseph create these letterpress celebration invitations with rose gold accents. Inspired by our Townsend design, they chose Pale Gray as well as Cobblestone inks which created a cool color palette. A Pale Gray border used around the perimeter of the invitation added a subtle design element on the front. While on the reverse, guests can find our Damask pattern in Pale Gray ink. The same pattern repeated on the envelope liner kept the suite consistent and eye-catching.
Jenna and Richard worked with Paper on the Avenue to create these floral letterpress invitations in garden and pewter. Inspired by our Wildflower design, they kept the color palette monochromatic. Script typography brought the attention to the bride and groom to be. Finally, a reply card also printed in garden kept everything cohesive as well as the return address on the envelope. The night before a wedding certainly requires celebration and an invitation in order to do so!

Inspired by our Culver design, these celebratory letterpress invitations honored all those who work for Joanie and Brian Allen. Sea Mist, as well as Pool ink colors, kept the design monochromatic and clean. On the reverse, employees names created a unique pattern in Sea Mist letterpress. Overall, this set led with typography as the driving design element. Thanks to the help of our friends at Uptowne Papers for helping us pull this together!

We worked with our friends at Ipanema Press to create these crisp black letterpress wedding invitations. Above the letterpress, a blind embossed monogram added dimensional texture. Whereas, a pop of copper foil used on the reply as well as website cards introduced metallic accents. An envelope liner finished the set off in a custom pattern shining in copper foil. Finally, a menu printed in copper and black letterpress ink kept everything cohesive.
We’re also happy to announce that we are extending our day of promotion through December 2019!
We used our new Bella Royal paper as a backdrop to this modern foil stamped new year card. Opaline Shine, as well as Silver Matte, added a reflective quality to the layout. To give the design geometric interest, snowflake shapes anchored the corners of the card. For those of you who may be running behind on holiday cards, a new year card is a solution that celebrates what’s to come! What ways will you come up with to say “Happy New Year” using our Hodges design?

It’s the season of engagements that require celebration and invitations! Take a peek at these watercolor engagement party invitations. Christina and David worked with Windmill Paper Boutique who helped bring their vision to life. Inspired by our Wardell Modern design, they added a blue backdrop as well as Rose Gold Shine accents. Finally, a solid foil liner shining brightly completed the engagement set.

A Brooklyn backdrop, bold shapes, and metallic accents inspired this shoot photographed by Forever Photography. We were excited to spot our Carrara design among these elements of inspiration as well. A wedding invitation with geometric flair made with Brooklyn in mind. The skyline motif used on the belly-band as well as the vintage map envelope liner added touches of personalization. Finally, this styled shoot featured at BK Venues created an intimate yet bold setting for a contemporary Brooklyn affair.
Our designer Andrea Streeter reimagined her Wright design as a southwest inspired invitation. Coral letterpress typography, as well as a blush backdrop, kept a tonal color palette. Geometric shapes carried from the original Wright design also added to the retro feel. The horizontal orientation allowed for room for the designer to play with the line elements. Finally, a cactus motif used within the monogram gave the design that southwestern flair, perfect for any modern Nevada affair.
