This phenomenal invite was designed by the bride and groom. The panels of the invitation are formatted into one long strip (which was accordian-folded). A poem was 'blind' pressed (printed without ink) along the entire length, with only one line, on the first panel, printed in deep red. The traditional invitation text was printed in black inbetween the lines of the poem throughout the additional three panels. This was a challenging piece to print, but the result was immensely rewarding for its beautiful simplicity. (I have yet to capture the beauty of this invite in a photograph or scan - the two above give a mere hint at the effect of the blind pressed poem.)
