Another couple decided my tablescape invitations would be perfect for their rehearsal dinner. I love the color combination and how deep I got the impression.
They also had me design and print a parking insert to meld seamlessly into their existing invitation suite. It’s not my usual aesthetic, but I really had a lot of fun working with the idea.
I just finished up an order of business cards for Rachel Denny, a supremely talented sculptor working out of Portland. I bought the most luxurious gray printmaking paper for the project and I love the way they turned out. The design is based directly off of her ‘Domestic Trophies’ series, one piece of which is featured below. They’re a little crazy but I love them!
What’s the perfect gift for that lady who taught you how to cook, brought you countless baked goods in college and still asks what you want for dinner when you come home? Beautiful handmade recipe cards, of course!
I just finished these up last weekend — they’re printed with a really deep impression and the intersecting lines turned out really cool. They’re available for purchase here.
I just finished up these gorgeous invitations for a couple who are renewing their vows on July 3rd. While they wanted to aknowledge the proximity of the holiday, they didn’t want their invitations to be kitchy or overly patriotic. I came up with a design that was abstract yet recognizable while being fun, modern and elegant. Printed with a deep impression and silver ink on a rich red textured paper, they are absolutely stunning!
Hey kids, I know I’ve been missing in action lately, but my life has been, to say the least, chaotic. I won’t go into all of it, but the highlights (or low-lights as they were) include my press having a major break (fixed now) and the company I worked for ceasing operations (still working on that one — yes, I am accepting freelance work, letterpress or otherwise).
In other news, here are a few pieces I created before the press cracked, and I’ve been working on custom pieces like crazy to catch up, so there will be lots to come! In the mean time, you can always keep up on local happenings on Hold That Thought, an interim publication for a few of us from the old company. (I’ll be posting about Hair Affair in a day or two!)
