With the help of our friends at Gus + Ruby Letterpress in Portsmouth, New Hampshire, Zoe and David reimagined our Birgitta design with an airy color palette and handmade paper for their Massachusetts summer wedding. They chose our hand-deckled paper for all pieces and printed in Mineral ink, a soft neutral. We created a custom envelope liner using the Birgitta motif on repeat to compliment their nature-inspired suite.

Our friends at Penny Post in Alexandria, Virginia helped this couple design their wedding invitations with a mash-up of two of our most popular designs – Dendria and Ichabod.

We die cut the tag in our Franklin shape to mimic the outline of the monogram cartouche inspired by our Ichabod design. More Dendria florals graced the envelope liner for a playful yet formal presentation perfect for a summer-time affair.
