Sculpted Embossed Invitations with Custom Envelopes and a Fun Die-Cut

Letterpress and Sculpted Emboss Wedding Stationery

Vintage-inspired botanical elegance, a formal layout, and a dramatic burgundy color palette give this wedding stationery suite a luxurious and traditional feel. Add in some fun, unexpected die-cut cards, and the entire suite, including the day-of pieces, feels intimate and inviting. It was a pleasure to work with Sophia and Diondre, who chose to customize our Braxton V.2 design for their special day.

There are so many lovely details that it’s hard to know where to even start with this suite. Perhaps the highlight of the invitation is the sculpted embossed floral accents on opposite corners. Sculpted embossing is like regular embossing in that it creates a raised impression, but what sets it apart is the sculpted part. The raised area has dimension, or rather different levels of height. For this invitation, that means a staggering level of detail that gives the flowers, reaching vines, and foliage a realistic look. This technique is done without ink, so the paper’s pillowy texture stands out.

Sculpted Embossed Detail

A fine script font and elegant serif typography give the suite a formal, romantic character. This traditional layout anchors the invitation, allowing the sculpted embossing to draw the eye. The oversized silk ribbon, tied in a bow, adds a charming finishing touch and creates a reveal moment when guests open the envelope.

Speaking of the envelope, this custom converted number was made especially for this invitation. The exterior features digitally printed ornate botanical florals reminiscent of antique wallpaper, toile, or vintage textile patterns.

Sculpted Embossed Invitations with Die-Cut Card

The reply card features a cowboy boot die-cut shape and is a gentle nod to the venue – a horse farm. This fun, charming detail adds a lovely personal touch while also being somewhat unexpected. The cowboy boot die-cut appears again for the escort card.
