Passport Wedding invitation

Every stationer has a design bucket list.  Designs we want to do for a client.  I am no exception.  One of those on my design bucket list was a passport wedding invitation.

So when Amanda contacted me about a passport invitation I was so excited! (Note: I am excited to hear from everyone but every so often there is a little extra excitement).  I was ready to jump into this project.

I have a passport so I know what they look like.  Lol.  But one element that needed to be considered was what makes it art versus a felony for falsifying a legal document.  I am not one for committing crimes (I won’t copy a design either).  What I learned was as long as it didn’t look like an actual passport of any country in the world I was good to go.  Sweet!

Amanda and Tim’s colors were burgundy and gray.  I suggested burgundy for the background color on the invitations and gray for the font and envelopes.  They really liked the idea.  Amanda sent some pictures that could work and told me which ones were her favorite.  I thought a nice element to add depth to the design was a world map behind the writing on the page with the details of information about the wedding.  Amanda and Tim really liked the idea.  As a bonus it made the text on that page slightly easier to read.

Once the design was done I began printing.  I did a test print and the gray was too dark and made it almost impossible to read.  I had to lighten the gray a little to make it easier to read.  This is a big reason why I prefer doing my own printing instead of outsourcing so that I can adjust during the printing process to make the best final product.

The passport invitation was so much fun to work on and I was so excited for the end result.  The passport style was perfect for their cruise destination wedding.
