Month: June 2008

Emily + Brendan

An oldie but goodie, this purple and black 5×5 z-card from a 2008 wedding still hangs on the wall of fame today because a) it’s purple color continues to draw the eye and b) it’s a great example of a different way to combine many pieces of information into one design. The invitation is printed on a purple card that is mounted to a white backing on the top panel of the z-card, while the reception information and directions follow suit on the second and third panels. We placed a RSVP post card in the center of the packet prior to stuffing into the mailing envelopes so when the guests mailed back their one loose card, they were left with an all-in-one invitation that got them where they were going, and let them know what to expect for Emily and Brendan’s wedding.

Maureen + Charles

Maureen’s pink and black invitation was a pocket-style with three enclosure cards. We kept the invitation fairly simple, with a modest monogram watermark screened behind the invitation text. She wanted to use primarily black and white with punches of hot pink for style.

Caroline’s Graduation

Small pockets are perfect for graduation because they give all the details in a tiny, succinct package, and let’s face it- by the time we graduate, sometimes less reading is better! Caroline decided she was up to the task of additional reading and went on to law school, which she announced on a petite bright green and metallic brown textured announcement, with just enough sophisticated patterned border to make it interesting.
