Antiquity: After its release in late 2007, this design quickly became one of our most popular. The overlapping light and dark motifs give this invitation a sense of motion that's unlike anything else in our collection. letterpress invitation 2 letterpress invitation 3
Classic: This is one of our most formal designs. When letterpressed, the simple border looks particularly refined and stylish. It is striking when sized large for Arturo envelopes, but can also be adapted for smaller pieces. letterpress invitation 2 letterpress invitation 3 letterpress invitation 4
Sprout: When someone comes to us looking for something unique, we always recommend this design. Simple, clean, and incredibly versatile, it can be customized to suit any taste in color. letterpress invitation 2 letterpress invitation 3

Velvet Waltz: This tea-length invitation is a gorgeous melding of the traditional with the unique. letterpress invitation 2 letterpress invitation 3
Metropolitan: Sleek and elegant, this simple design is just perfect for letterpress. The thin Century Gothic type bites into the paper beautifully to add depth to this otherwise minimalist invitation. letterpress invitation 2 letterpress invitation 3 letterpress invitation 4
Orchard: A couple of years ago, Travis created this pen and ink drawing for a specific customer who, to our slight disappointment, ended up opting for another motif. The drawing was shelved until recently when it finally worked its way back into this great invitation. letterpress invitation 2 letterpress invitation 3 letterpress invitation 4
Californian: This classic design brings out the best in letterpress by letting the paper and print quality do the talking. It can easily be adapted for any sort of occasion by simply substituting the appropriate motif. letterpress invitation 2 letterpress invitation 3 letterpress invitation 4
Beaded Strings: We came up with this design for a friend who was looking for something a bit more modern than she'd seen from other letterpress shops. letterpress invitation 2 letterpress invitation 3 letterpress invitation 4 letterpress invitation 5
Autumn: This invitation was created for a customer who was looking for a fall-themed motif that was both playful and elegant. The aspen leaves provide movement to the simple and traditional text. letterpress invitation 2 letterpress invitation 3 letterpress invitation 4 letterpress invitation 5
Vignette: This design combines the elegance of our Classic invitation with the simplicity of our Californian and then adds a twist. The border is pressed into the paper blind (without ink). The result is an invitation with texture and dimension that only letterpress can offer. letterpress invitation 2 letterpress invitation 3
Aspen: This invitation is unique in that the silhouette motif is filled with a fine crosshatching pattern that really makes the image jump. The fluid Cezanne script provides a great contrast to the tidy Optima text. letterpress invitation 2
