Try to have your wording
finalized BEFORE you submit your actual order. By
being prepared, you will save both your
time and Melissa's, as less proof
revisions
will be required. Ultimately, this allows your
order to be submitted to the printer sooner
rather than
later. |

| Design Description: |
COLOR COLOR COLOR!
Bird of Paradise flowers are very colorful and
dramatic. Melissa has captured that with this awesome
gate fold invitation that uses a brilliant purple
handmade paper. Your text is letterpress printed
in one [or two] ink colors on a thick white cover
stock paper featuring hand-torn straight edges.
On top of the text layer is the offset printed
bird of paradise design on clear
vellum paper. Once closed the gatefold is
sealed
with
a vivid
orange hand-tied silk ribbon [VIEWS 1 + 2], or
raffia band [VIEWS 6 + 7].
This is a three layered invitation design, as
first the text layer is adhered to a Shimmer Aqua
layer [105# cover
stock], which is slightly larger than the text
layer.
Next,
the two combined layers are adhered to the third
(bottom) layer, the Chocolate Shimmer [105# cover
stock] paper. The invitation
itself is letterpress printed on a 110# textured
cover stock which holds letterpress beautifully
[Views 5 + 6]. The Shimmer Aqua layer helps to "POP"
the cursive Aqua/Tiffany
Blue of the text and Starfish design. Alternatively,
you may choose to not print the starfish motif
and add more text.
The silk ribbons
come in a montage of colors [VIEW 8] should you
wish to swap. Or just order as shown, above! |

* INNER ENVELOPES*
Inner envelopes are $1.00 each. They are custom converted
specifically for Melissa and are available with a textured
finish in either white or natural white. Inner
envelopes are ungummed and are placed inside the mailing envelope.
Inner envelopes are used to communicate exactly who is invited,
especially when inviting - or not inviting - young children
of guests. Names only are listed, so for example: "Jessica & Glenn" (informal)
-or- "Mr. & Mrs. Glenn Walker" (formal). Do not
forget to order extras to account for addressing mistakes (and
they do happen)!

|
|
* GUEST ADDRESSING *
If you would like Melissa to print in-studio your guests names
and/or addresses on the invitation envelope and/or inner envelope,
the fee per envelope is $1.55 USD. For Guest Addressing envelopes
Melissa uses a high quality inkjet printer, as it is the most
cost-effective method. The font used will match the one on
your invitation.
*For guidelines on how to format your addresses's please contact Melissa.*
NOTE: Alternatively, please email Melissa
if you would like to have your envelopes hand-written by a
calligrapher, and have not already arranged for this service
on your own.
|
|
|
|
* COMPLETE ASSEMBLY & MAILING to GUESTS for the NON-DIY

your guests directly from her local US Post Office. She will
add postage to your rsvp card/postcard, in-studio print your

and then mail. To assemble and mail to each guest the fee is
$2.75 USD per invite.
