In honor of The New Year, I thought I would put together an inspiration board using a little bling!  Grey and gold are elegant and modern colors when paired together, and may be perfect for your wedding or event.  Enjoy!

Last week I printed a new letterpress invitation design, which I custom created for a couple in Australia.  I am so happy with the results.  On Thursday I will show you pictures of the final product, but for now…check out these process shots (showing the printing plate and the sketch).

This past summer I designed and letterpress printed an invitation for a customer in Spartanburg, SC featuring a pretty lace design.  We printed the invitations using one color to match her wedding, a dusty lilac color.  They came out so beautiful.  I was experimenting with a few other invitation designs recently and decided to try and print this same design in red.  I really like the results! I also included a pretty kraft paper tag.  Let me know what you think! This design is available for purchase, and can be printed in any color, though my Etsy shop here.

The holidays are around the corner! This got me thinking that you can have a wedding or party with a red and green theme, and without it looking Christmas-like.  So here is some inspiration for you, including a recent invitation design for an engagement party I am currently working on.

Thought I would share with you a project I completed not too long ago.  I designed and letterpress printed the business cards for a good friend of mine, Kate O’Donnell Diaz of Green Apple Weddings and Events.  Kate’s business is based out of NYC and Connecticut, and she specializes in “green, eco-friendly” event design. The top picture shows a few sketches of the logo, and the bottom picture shows the final design after I letterpress printed using brown and transparent green apple colored ink. The type is hand set using vintage metal type! Contact me if you need letterpress business cards.

A few weeks ago I printed this lovely vintage-inspired letterpress invitation.  The local Greenville, SC customer wanted the invitation to look aged, with rustic touches.  The couple is getting married in a mansion on the hills, with a vineyard setting. Check out more details on ordering this design in the Sofia Invitations Etsy Shop. The cream colored invitation was the final result, but I also made some samples using Crane 100% cotton white papers.
