Project Description
I love print, especially pushing the boundaries of what's possible. I chose to use my wedding invites as an experiment into what can be done. It's taken a while, with 5 different stocks, 4 print techniques, 3 sections, 2 folding techniques, all for 1 wedding invite, fun times! The main invite is printed on stained laserply and screen printed in white. The milkman's wallet is GF Smith duplex and custom folded by my fiancé, thanks Kat! The map was litho printed and used a simple origami technique. All sealed in a lovely, hand stamped, string and button envelope.Production Lesson(s)
We had to do a lot this by hand due to the low run required, get as much help as possible to fold the wallets!!
