Hey ladies,
I have a question for those who have ordered from whiteaisle.com.
I just got my sample of 'fall.' I love the look and and the paper is great, but my boss pointed out that the ink in the design (the sample is in purple) bleeds a little around the edges.
For those who ordered, how's the printing quality? I'm not sure if it's just my sample. I know sometimes samples aren't perfect quality. I emailed Rebecca, but I'd love to hear from someone with the finished product in her hands.

TIA!

I ordered from them, and I love my invitations. LOVE them. Just sent them out, in fact. It might just be the sample, or, it's not a perfect process, especially when you're using that sort of soft, expensive paper. Anyway, I didn't notice any bleeding or other issues with any of my invitations. And I found Rebecca great to work with--she and I designed my invites together (I got the Luxe invitations), and she was very patient with me!

Thanks!
Is the luxe on that Arturo Italian paper or card stock? I feel like the bleeding might be b/c the Arturo paper almost feels like a cloth. I hope it's just a fluke. I really like her work.

The Luxe is the one with the pocketfold. You can choose either of the Arturo or the other one--I chose the Arturo, the soft one with the ripped edges. The 'Luxe' part just refers to it being put in the pocketfold. I pretty much designed the invitation part myself using an Art Nouveau image from a Dover book.
