Kris + Lowell’s St. Patrick’s Day Wedding Invitations

02/21/2013

Is it really possible that I’ve been blogging for nearly 5 years without featuring some St. Patrick’s Day wedding invitations?!? Well, better late than never! J from Grey Snail Press sent over these beautiful invitations that she designed for a St. Patrick’s Day wedding. The design combines a stylized shamrock (a must!) with J’s whimsical hand lettering and watercolor accents. Beautiful!

From J: These wedding invitations were a nod to both the bride’s Irish heritage and the St. Patrick’s Day nuptials. A stylized shamrock illustration and hand lettering were letterpress printed in Kelly green by Hound Dog Press on Crane’s 110# Lettra in fluorescent white.

A Kelly green envelope was chosen with custom watercolor and ink shamrocks digitally printed on lightweight cerulean paper for liners. RSVP cards were printed digitally, along with two shamrock accents and complementing cerulean envelopes.
