Jess & Russ Keepsake
Jess & Russ Keepsake
When Russ and I announced we were getting married, the pressure was on to do something awesome for our invitations. Instead of doing a printed invite, we created a crazy parallax website and enlisted the help of our friends to create artwork for it. While everyone loved the site, as the big day approached the desire to make something awesome and printed grew and grew.
We decided to make a keepsake to give out to wedding guests that included all of the artwork from the site on one side (offset & gold foil) and the full timeline of how we got together on the back (2 color letterpress and gold foil). The fronts and backs were duplex together with gold edge painting. The end result was elaborate and intense but we thought it was the perfect way to showcase all the wonderful artwork our friends created for us! And of course Studio on Fire did an amazing job with the printing—their intense perfectionism was much appreciated.
