Inspired by Emerald

Hello, Rachel from W*Ink here to take you inside my design studio. So emerald green is Pantone's Color of the Year. This is an incredibly strong color, and it's hard for me not to veer straight into art deco or super prep when I think about it. So I made up this mood board to inspire some new design work featuring the color of the year and the two variations I ended up with. I couldn't decide whether I liked the invite more with a gold lined envelope or with an envelope liner that echoes the pattern on the back of the invite, so I decided to post them both. Look how pretty it is with a soft pastel pink or peach. You'll also notice it works very well as an accent color. A whole lot of emerald can be overwhelming, but adding pops of it here and there is really lovely.

Perfect Pairing: Stripes & Gold

We came across this beautiful tablescape for a Sarah Seven preview brunch and it was the perfect jumping off point for an invitation idea we'd been mulling for awhile: black and gold stripes with a a small dot of soft mauve. Pair it with a black envelope, gold foil liner and gold or soft pink metallic calligraphy to complete the look. Or, really go luxe and foil stamp the gold stripes. You know how we love foil stamping.

This invitation is available at W.ink, starting at $225 for 50 invitations, or $65 as a printable. Foil stamping by custom quote.
