We worked with our dear friends at Ellis Hill to create these bright, cheerful, and garden-inspired birthday party invitations. This invitation blends vintage floral artwork with modern typography for a classic yet still contemporary look. The card is modeled after our Gweneth save the date design, and it’s a great example of how our designs can be customized for various events.

Bold floral artwork introduces a celebratory tone and anchors the design. The guest of honor’s age is foil-stamped in copper matte over the digitally printed floral bouquet. The overlapping foil adds some glimmer and contrast against the lush, detailed flowers. Our Bella Smooth Cotton paper, in bright white, perfectly complements the bold, vibrant florals and the letterpress printing in our persimmon ink. The refined, flowing script font announces Sue’s Novetañera, or 90th. The supporting text appears in a serif font and is clean, structured, and easy to read, balancing the ornate florals.

The envelope liner is a statement piece on its own and showcases the lively, full-coverage floral pattern. The liner pattern uses the same floral artwork from the card over a digital flood of our persimmon ink, and is borrowed from the Gweneth invitation. 

This birthday party invitation is joyful, celebratory, and absolutely perfect for such a milestone event. We hope Sue had the happiest of birthdays, and thank you to our dear friends at Ellis Hill for entrusting us with this job. Are you in need of invitations for an upcoming event?
