It seems like I excel at making invites, or at least I just enjoy making them. The house image was created in Photoshop using sketching and desaturation. Then pulling in a image of worn paper and playing with the opacity of the layers until I was satisfied. The image was then placed in InDesign were I used LunacyMore and Grit Primer typefaces for the text and applied the gray background/border. I should also mention that I chose this particular house image from istockphoto.com because of the Mansard Roof, a favorite of mine. The finished invite size is 4"x6". The invites were first printed on 8.5"x11" paper then torn down to size using a ruler as a guide, so the finished invite had a deckled edge.
