Woweee! It is a busy day in the studio. We just finished up gluing 990 cards together for Tricia’s wedding invitations. (not all cards are shown here in the photo) Each card is then hand-folded twice. So that is 330 folds. Now that is handmade!

Lately James and I have been working for many talented graphic designers. We are truly honored they trust us with their wedding invitation designs. Up next, Kristal’s vineyard invites, the soft hues she chose for her folder wedding invites are truly elegant. Look for a pic of that very soon! Hopefully, not sure if I can keep up with the photos.

Sneak a peek of Katie’s custom letterpress wedding invitations! I never get tired of looking at our (James’) letterpress print work. Gorgeeeeous! We always try to keep our client’s details private here on our blog and online, so you won’t be able to see the entire stationery suite right now. However, as soon as we whip up a version we can share, we certainly will. What you can not see is the champagne pocketfolder, beautiful layers of colorful cardstock in rose metallic and pistachio green. Hand lined envelopes in rose to match! Of course.

It may be snowing here in Ohio, but SPRING is in the air in the studio!

{private photo} Our designs worked their way to the front for this competitive Indy Car driver and his fiancé! Handmade and custom embellished starfish wedding invitations in opulent silver, white, and rich aqua blue boasting hand-illustrated starfish motif. This elegant starfish invite nestles in an aqua blue box. The perfect combination. Truly beach chic!

Great talent must be shared. From time to time I stumble upon amazing photography by fabulous photographers. The four shown here today are from  Scott Shaw Photography. You can contact him at [email protected] or call 216-870-0376 if you wish. I love the adorable ring bearer boy in the first photo. Scott’s perspective in his photography tells an awesome story! Don’t you agree?

Woweeeee! James and I have designing, printing, letterpressing, and painting so many new custom invitations! We wish we could show you all of them. I just had to stop the presses to show you Cassidy’s custom Bat Mitzvah invitation design. Super bright pink, sparkly, hand painted zebra print with splashes of the brightest lime green.

The envelopes will arrive here in the studio tomorrow. They are silver sparkly stock and we will hand-line them with hand-painted zebra stripes! Cassidy and her mom are thrilled and so excited to mail them to her guests! Another incredible ‘custom invitation challenge’ accomplished. NEXT up Peggy’s beach theme invite with a hand painted boardwalk and Sarah’s custom save the dates with a blue row boat and more. I hope to share those with you soon if time allows.

UPDATE: The Cassidy Design in quartz, white, zebra animal print, and pink.
