I am super excited about these hand-painted invitation mock-ups we created yesterday! Not only because I think they have fabulous potential, but because it is so out-of-the-box for us!  These gorgeous hand colored Peony invitations were inspired by a potential client who mentioned in a consultation that one of the flowers she would be using were peonies (and you know how gaga we are over those).

Each flower starts off with a Persian Blue embossed outline, and then each petal is filled and shaded, by hand, using a combination of artist chalks and pencils.  The petal tips and outlines are filled in with a gold ink.

This design is the first "rough draft" if you will for what will eventually become a custom pocket folder invitation.  A hand painted layered peony or monogram seal will complete the exterior.  The flowers are so reminiscent of the kinds of patterns you'd find on a fancy tea cup from the 1940's.  Love!!

The interior invitation has two embossed peonies with gold ink detail, and chalk and pencil coloring. 
Now that I have gone out on the limb, I have to say... I can't wait to explore this new-to-me invitation style.  Perhaps soon you will see a hand-colored line on our website.  Stay tuned!

Unique birth announcements by Revelry Invitation Studio

I have baby on the brain. Baby, Baby, Baby!  So I thought I would pull out some of the unique designs we have done in the past that celebrate the birth of new little ones.  Birth announcements, you say?  Yep.  A one-trick-pony we are not.  Although the bulk of our business has been dominated by luxury events and weddings, we have been known to dabble in other momentous occasions as well.

Damask Duo of Pocketfold Invitations

Damask Pocketfold Invitations

It has been a crazy few weeks here in the studio (and in my personal life), and I am happy to finally have a quiet morning to be able to share some of the fabulous things that have left the studio recently.  Like this duo of damask pocketfold invitations created for a couple whose nuptual-theme is inspired by simple elegance and strength.

The first set is creaetd from a black pocketfold, matted with a red cardstock layer, and finished with a damask printed on crisp white stock.  A red satin ribbon adds definition and separation, while a modern monogram adds softness to an otherwise very powerful and bold presentation.  Enclosure cards are crafted from 3 layers of damask stock, red card stock and a crisp white text layer.

The pocket was wrapped in a satin ribbon and finished with a custom monogram seal.

The white version shows as a softer version of the black, although most elements remain the same. Have I ever mentioned how much I absolutely adore damask?  LOVE!

Enclosure cards in this set have a red stock back, a damask layer, and a crisp white text layer.

A more regal presentation is given by a wide red satin ribbon and a rhinestone buckle. If you know me and my designs, you know I let very few things leave the studio without a little sparkle. Everyone should shine on their wedding day!
