Big Sur modern
To set the scene for their Big Sur wedding, these clients wanted to bring the 'wow' factor of redwoods as well as the expansive vista of the rocky coast to their invites. The graphics were hand-drawn digitally and then printed in one color. I'm so taken with how the redwoods turned out that I plan to print some notecards with the same design, soon.

the owl and the pussycat get married
For a poet and an illustrator, a perfect fit, in life...and on their invites. The owl and pussycat graphics were drawn by the professional-illustrator groom and the text was professionally edited by the bride (and arranged in 'waves' by EMprint). The result of our collaboration is so delightful. I have hopes to adapt the design for a limited edition broadside print in the near future. [The first pic is the front of the folded card, the second is the inside of the card. Click on the pic to see a bigger version - even the tiniest text (3.5 pt!) is perfectly legible.]

pretty peonies
For my dear friends, Sarah & Armand, an invite set inspired by the peonies destined to adore their wedding celebration. The blossoms were hand drawn and the delicate lines were printed in two colors, with a distinctively different layout for each of the three pieces. Matching sage green envelopes add dimension to the collection. After printing, the invites were each hand painted, to add depth.

seriously hip biz cards
One side: Young Voters, Other side: MTV. Riffing on the logos for these two organizations, we ended up with some pretty awesome cards. How many people have a blue donkey (that actually looks cool) on their biz cards?

marriage records cards
Designed by the typographic genius behind Veneer magazine, with the added bonus of two rounded corners. How smoothly these cards will slip into a wallet!
