Activist/Actress Birthday Invitation
We were asked to create  very special invitation design Jane Fonda's daughter had in mind for her mother's 60th birthday celebration.  Ms. Fonda requested that we create an invitation whose text  spoke "in her voice."  Ms. Fonda was also concerned that her guests might misplace the RSVP and Reservation Cards, so we designed a special 'pocket' into the invitation's design.

Art Museum Invitation
We love the challenges that Tim Lundy of Distinctive Design Events presents to us!  Tim asked us to create an artsy and exciting but budget minded invitation for a new art museum in Raleigh, North Carolina.  Our response was to design an invitation that featured an abstract rendering of interlocking faces.  The Invitation opens by pulling the faces apart to reveal 'talk bubbles' that provide event information and the names of artists donating special chair designs to the museum.
