entry #4: our LUXE invitation inspiration

Friday, February 3rd, 2012

The glamorous ‘Luxe‘ wedding invitation suite from our new Umi 2 album is a spectacular display of light and perspective. This sparkling modern design was inspired by the way light reacts when reflected off of crystal chandeliers. By letterpress printing on textured pearlized metallic paper, we were able to add even more depth to this dazzling and sophisticated invitation. Take a look below at the inspiration behind this elegant design, and check back again for more moods boards coming soon from our new Umi 2 album!

entry #3: our CABANA invitation inspiration

Friday, January 20th, 2012

We are thrilled to introduce the ‘Cabana‘ letterpress wedding invitation suite from our brand new Umi 2 album. In these winter months, this little burst of sunshine has us reminiscing of warm summer breezes, lounging by the pool, and sipping on ice-cold lemonade…. ahhh.
We chose this happy color palette of bright yellow ‘Lemonade’ and neutral ‘Warm Gray’, however, depending on the style of your event, this fresh design would look great in just about any color combination. Take a look below at what inspired this design and stay tuned for more mood boards from our new Umi 2 album!
