Non-traditional Wedding Invitations

I love, love, love this wedding invitation featured today over at iDIY.  This invitation doesn’t have any fancy graphics, just a simple layout that uses typography and newspaper-esque graphics to tell an incredibly sweet story:

This invitation suite is a fabulous source of design inspiration for any couple trying to tell a bit of a story with their wedding invitations.  The suite was designed by the groom, Matt Dorfman, and you can find the full invitation suite right here.  Love it!

{paper artwork – letterpress animal portrait prints}

These letterpress animal portraits from Old School Stationers were among my favorites from the NSS last month – the expressions on each animal just make me smile:

Letterpress-goat-print

Letterpress-horse-print

Letterpress-moose-print
 
Letterpress-pig-print

Each print is hand drawn before being color separated and letterpress printed, measures approximately 8" x 8," and comes mounted on a wood frame ready to hang.  I love the entire series, but I think my favorites are the pig and the goat.  Check out more over on the Old School Stationers website and etsy store.
