Design Guide
Our collections are thoughtfully composed design concepts — each with its own character, atmosphere and aesthetic direction. At the same time, they are never fixed systems. Materials, colours and finishes can be reinterpreted and refined to create invitations that feel entirely aligned with your wedding style.
Four design variations of the “Stella Collection” – each one unique in its own way
Through considered combinations of paper, colour, liner motifs and finishes, each design evolves into something uniquely yours. Subtle adjustments can create entirely new style worlds — from understated and timeless to expressive and editorial.
Customisation Options
The Design Guide offers an overview of available options and illustrates how flexible each collection can be. It is meant as inspiration — a starting point for shaping a cohesive and intentional overall look.

Print Finishes

All techniques can be combined with each other or with flat printing.
Embossing, matte or glossy – crafted by hand in the tradition of classic printmaking.
Hot Foil Stamping
in gold, silver, rose gold or copper.
Using a custom-made brass plate and heat, a metallic foil is pressed into the paper. This technique creates beautifully glossy, light-reflecting effects; the foil takes on the texture of the
paper beneath. Each piece is individually stamped by hand.
Letterpress
Printing and embossing in one step.
Instead of a metallic foil, ink or a matte pigment foil is impressed into the paper. The result is a soft, matte look — only possible on light-colored papers.
Blind Embossing
Colorless deep embossing, performed by hand with a custom-engraved brass plate.
The most subtle and tactile of all embossing techniques.
Hand-Applied (Metallic) Finishes
For couples who love an artistic look or want to add a subtle touch of shine without traditional foil stamping:
Metallic pigments in gold, silver, copper or rose gold are brushed onto the paper by hand, turning each piece into a true one-of-a-kind. Hand-applied white pigment also creates beautiful,
painterly highlights — especially on deeply colored fine papers.
Ink & Printing Colors
Metallic tones for hot foil stamping or hand-applied finishes
Special white ink for dark papers and envelopes
