Tropical Palms, part two


For the invitations, we took the ornate tropical design a few steps further. Again, the contrast between the detailed botanical drawings and the almost-rococo border and flourishes produces a classy, not kitschy, tropical flare. These botanicals were hand-drawn with attention to the fine details. One particularly unique feature of this invite set is how the three inserts feature the same design, but are cut off at decreasing heights. When stacked together, the three pieces fit together seamlessly, even hiding the text behind each successive piece. This was truly one of the most delightfully elaborate designs I've ever worked on.
