Love Knot


The Love Knot





We were "lucky" enough to have such a great couple like Paige & Patrick find us to design their invitations. Natives of New Jersey, this couple was stationed in North Carolina since Patrick was in the service. This Lieutenant also has a bit of Irish in his soul which is where this stunning invitation set was derived. Paige explained that they wanted Navy & a Dark Silver Grey incorporated into their invitations but more importantly the Celtic Theme. She wanted to keep away from four leaf clovers or "Luck of the Irish" themes. We have dabbled in the past with Celtic Theme Invitations but we really wanted to do our research and make this special. Since the invitations were for a wedding we clearly started with the "love knot", weeeehhhhheelllll there are A LOT!!! We narrowed it down and sent some images to this cute couple and they chose a few knots (based on the meanings behind the knot) and we incorporated them into their designs. Below is their navy blue and dark grey Irish influenced wedding invitation set.





We made a large landscape style invitation with shimmer papers. We layered three shimmer papers; starting from the bottom we used a metal colored silver card stock, on top of it we adhered navy blue shimmer paper and printed on a beautiful white shimmer card. We incorporated the Celtic knots by creating a band down the left side of the invitation. Naturally, we aligned their wording to the right and infused their colors once again into the printing.
The couple opted for the ever-so-popular reply post card and also needed an information card. We included the Celtic love knot into both single panel cards to keep the theme flowing nicely.
