Sketch and scrap…

Prior to my final wedding invitation design…i had loads and loads of attempts. I would go to bed thinking about it and wake up with new ideas which i would execute right away and then scrap just as fast. This sketch was inspired by Norman Rockwell

My Wedding post

I’ve been pretty busy lately. designing…arranging…producing my wedding. It was  a pretty small wedding, not a huge production. but I still had some stuff to do. There is nothing harder for a designer/illustrator than designing his or her own invitation. I had a few ideas bouncing around…it drove me crazy, but i was happy with the final result. My guy is a skater, our worlds came together and mixed up, i wanted the invitation to express some of the world clash we felt (it was actually partly his idea:)

The text on the bottom says: 1985 “Oranim” Primary school

As part of the DIY, I had some disposable cameras available for the guests….to just have fun with.

I felt like a little factory.
