Top invitation studio Ceci has updated their portfolio with new custom invitations that are in the trademark gorgeous Ceci-style. Each section begins with a few new weddings worth checking out. Love the Save-the-Date for Ellie & Mike with great old-world style. Adriana & Tony’s invitation is so romantic and the above invite for Lourdes & Tyler features lush botanical illustration. Love! (See a previous post about Ceci here)

Gorgeous watercolor illustrated wedding invites at Ilee. They also do some lovely hand calligraphy and monograms. Love the illustrations of the little buildings and all the botanical work. (of course!) Great color, delicate brushwork. Lovely lovely lovely.

Lovely & varied work from Elizabeth Hubbell Studio. Gorgeous calligraphy is letterpressed onto cards, sweet illustrations adorn baby announcements. Some really great formats here including a little baby announcement book about a little girl born in the year of the monkey. Too cute.

Beautiful work from Oliver Brinn. Delicately designed baby announcements with a vintage feel. Love all the flourishes lately and gorgeous scripts. The above are two of the four styles available. The announcements come with matching envelopes imprinted with return address and sticker seal. Lovely!

I got a note from a friend to check up on the Kate Spade stationery available at Crane’s. So glad I did! I cannot begin to tell you how inspiring this collection is. The selection above of the personalized correspondence cards do not even begin to show the variety of great colors and patterns available. The cards are letterpressed or engraved and there are so many styles to choose from. I personally love the idea of matching calling cards… so chic. The gray cards above feature return addresses pressed into the backs of the cards that show through the little window on the envelope. Genius! Gorgeous stuff.

This notecard at Galison caught my eye. Love the colors and the illustrations. Galison itself carried a wide assortment of cards and journals that I wouldn’t normally see at places like Kate’s or Paper Source. Very sweet.

From Mav comes the Card Society, a month-to-month subscription of limited-edition letterpressed cards. Each month members receive two cards with envelopes. The cards are produced especially for society members and never get reproduced again. Such a great idea… especially for gifts for people who love letterpress and the cards at Port2Port.

I can’t even tell you how much I loved the work at Wiley Valentine. I’m seriously searching for the words. Please visit their portfolio and look at the wedding invitations with the beautiful and intricate scrolls and ornaments. Then go over to the baby and see the sweetly designed announcements featuring photographs and detailed illustrations. See the social stationery with the gorgeous monograms and the new collection with the new luxe wedding invitations and imprintables. Also notice throughout the beautiful envelopes that are printed to match with artwork bleeding over folds. Definitely a Stationery Show favorite.

Beautiful botanical illustrations in soft color serve as the backdrop for this line of invitations from Braun & Brown. These were my favorite of the invitations I saw at the booth and loved that they came in such a wide variety of colors. The printing quality is also done so well that fine details are picked up.

All of Apiary’s designs are printed with raised ink. The effect is quite luscious and only makes the patterns and colors pop even more. Announcements with color combinations, patterns and name plates are available for purchase but you may also choose your own combinations to suit your needs. Great patterns here. Very gorgeous effect.

The work of Masha D’Yans caught my eye at the Stationery Show for the quality of color and brushwork alone. She had the above right displayed quite large and it was such a breath of fresh air. Be sure to visit her and see the rest because the above is not even the best of what she has. So hard to choose! Gorgeous stuff.

The visual aesthetic at Seraph is modern yet elegant with great typography and fantastic illustrations. Check out the fashion and the animal illustrations. The colors are layered beautifully as well.
