workday wednesdays: a letterpress proposal

Posted by debbie lee on

i've known nancy since grade school.  we used to write notes in a notebook and pass it back and forth in class.  i still have said notebook {talk about pack rat!}.  so when her then boyfriend, asked me to help come up with a letterpress print to aid in his proposal, i could not be more excited to collaborate with him!  i immediately went to my ever talented illustrator {my sister!} and asked her to sketch a few drafts for me.  the final cut was an illustration of nancy and sam {well, in their likeness} with an appleton, wisconsin backdrop.  we used sam's own handwriting that read, "Nancy, Will you marry me?  Yours, Sam" that i scanned and brought into the drawing.

nancy sent me the following photos.  check out that rock!  they ended up framing the proposal print!   what a clever and unique way of proposing!  tune in tomorrow for pictures of their save-the-dates.
