A new arrival....

As most of you will have realised we have a little bun in the oven due to arrive any day now.... and we are super, duper excited!

We have designed and printed the Baby shower invites, and will hopefully do the same for the Birth Announcements, although who knows if I will have the time for this?

I will be on Maternity Leave from now until the beginning of August, and as a result will not be able to help you with any printing needs. Ben will however still be available to offer a Design service for those of you who would like to get invites etc designed by us. You can contact him on ben@gribholm.co.za

We are really looking forward to this special time in our lives, and I look forward to getting  back to work later in the year.

Our online store will still be operational during this Maternity period.

Clare and Richard Wedding Invitations

These are the most recent wedding invitations that we have designed and printed.

The bridal couple wanted a Wild Olive Tree to be the central icon of the invitation, with a decorative border around it.

They went with an A6 size, landscape format printed on a textured Cream paper in a handmixed Lilac and Sage Green.

Hanneke & Abrie wedding invites

These are our latest printed wedding invitations. They were designed by the Bride, Hanneke, who is a designer.

We paired up a handmixed Sage Green with our Cool Grey, and printed the A5 invites on a textured, Cream paper that is 250gsm thick. The bride opted for brown Manila envelopes to complete the look.

Simone and Jaco Wedding Invites

We printed these wedding invites and envelopes at the end of the year last year.
They were designed by Charle Van Der Walt, a friend of the bride.

We used our Musky Purple on a Cream card stock. Size is A5.

We particularly like the 'Crest' design on the envelopes.

Yellow Submarine Baby Shower invites

This is the baby shower invite that my talented husband designed for our little bundle of joy, who is due to arrive on the 1st of March!

The theme for the little Sir is Yellow Submarine (with a hint of Steve Zizzou).

Here is the electronic Save the Date:

We mixed our own blue and yellow. A picture of a very pregnant me doing the printing.





And the final product....
