Re: anyone here order elum invitations?
I started looking at letterpress invitations yesterday. I really like them because the quality is much heavier. From what I saw though, I thought the designs were quite plain, which was disappointing. I didn't see the elum selection, so I may look for them.

they do seem heavier, but i read a comment about william authur (?) invites that one bride ordered that she had letterpressed and it looked like thermography.
thermogrphy should feel similar to engraving on the fon - the indent - but on the back it is smooth where engraving you feel the impressions

One of my friends got letterpress invitations from Oblation and they were gorgeous!! Not plain at all, they have a lot of beautiful designs. They have a website with everything on it.

I know that Boxcar, Bellatera, William McArthur, Julie Holcomb...list goes...also do them.
I REALLY like letterpress (in case you hadn't guessed that ) Is elum expensive?? FM if you want info on any of the places I looked at!
