The theme of the invitation and RSVP card came from local food and flowers and the couples’ love of nature hikes and their lovely backyard garden and sweet chickens! Each image was hand drawn and then cut out of paper like how we all used to make snowflakes when we were kids. The chili is an ode to a wish for the couple to always have a bit of spice!

What is your environmental impact?I’m so glad you asked! Yes! As a high school biology and environmental science teacher, thinking about how my products have an impact on the environment is always in the forefront of my mind when I source my materials. I try to be as environmentally conscious as I can as well as work with small local businesses. All of my letterpress projects are printed on 100% tree free paper - it is 100% pure cotton, which is a byproduct of the textile industry.
