Modern Orchid Wedding Invitations

Flowers are a typical theme for wedding invitations and orchids are especially popular. I painted a lovely watercolor of a dendrobium orchid and was so happy with it that I decided to turn it into an invitation design! I wanted to give it a modern look, so I added a light mod swirl background in muted colors and mounted the card onto a warm silver toned card stock to match muted background tones.



This invitation is a nice choice if you're looking for a traditional theme with a modern twist. I plan to also have these available in pocket fold and gate fold versions for couples who prefer a packaged invitation style.

Cape Cod Map Wedding Invitations

Another new design I've been working on are these Cape Cod map invitations. I thought this would be a nice whimsical option for a fun, somewhat informal wedding on the Cape.


The invitation is printed on felt cover stock, mounted to a textured navy blue stock and comes with white envelopes. The cute sailboat response card is also printed on felt stock.

Hot Air Balloon Wedding Invitations

I’ve been spending a lot of time in the studio over the past few months working on new designs for my invitations. I’m really pleased with my new whimsically illustrated hot air balloon invitations. My goal was to create an interesting illustration using pattern and texture. This one also has a muted, almost vintage primary color scheme that I think works nicely. I hope you all like it as much as I do!




The invitation is printed on felt textured stock, is layered on a textured navy blue card stock and comes with white envelopes.
