Cabana Letterpress Wedding Invitation featured on The Knot Live

Thursday, February 28th, 2013

We are excited to share that our Cabana invitation suite from our affordable Umi letterpress invitation collection was featured today on The Knot Live! The invitations shown were printed on thick 100% cotton paper stock in Pink Champagne and Midnight Blue inks. The Cabana invitation ensemble is a playful modern design showcasing several coordinating (but not matchy matchy) patterns such as Greek key and chevron. Inspired by our trendsetting invitations, The Knot Live created a gorgeous chevron themed wedding cake, perfect for a modern event. Check out the segment below!

Urban meets rustic with the trendsetting ‘Patisserie‘ wedding invitation suite from our new Umi 2 album. Antique lace inspired artwork is kicked up a notch when paired with bold distressed typography. We chose to letterpress this invitation in cool ‘Fog’ gray and bright ‘Mango’ inks which when paired together emphasize this design’s hip and stylish edge. Take a peek below at the inspiration behind this unique invitation suite, and come 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!
