My first wedding invitation done by letterpress — finally finished and I think overall successful! There are still some inking issues with my press that need to be worked out (even with my new rollers!)*

The bride wanted a classic, elegant invitation set with pops of watermelon color.

*I am still getting inconsistent inking even with my new rollers and new metal trucks. It’s almost in pattern where I’ll get no ink on one side of the plate and after awhile, I’ll get no ink on another portion of the plate and then it goes back to all inking all over.  Dented rollers would be an explanation if there wasn’t inking on one portion all the time. But it moves! Could it be the hooks/springs that hold my rollers? Any printers out there, I’d love to hear your thoughts!
