The Seattle Book Arts Guild invited me to discuss what went into making two new artist's books, which I created during an artist's residency I did in August 2019. SEE MORE

PROJECT: Wedding Invites   |   DESIGNER: Candice Noel Nagel  |   CLIENT: Lara + Josh   |   PRESS: invite letterpress printed on 8 x 12 C&P, RSVP digitally printed

This invitation card is very special to me, so special that I use it as one of the examples for my intro to letterpress classes. Why is it so special? The super-tight color registration – that is, how closely the two colors match up together – is a special skill of mine. There was no room for failure in this design and I was so pleased with the result, as was the designer and the bride.  The green and mustard colors overlap to create a third color and the white heart literally pops out of that overlap.
