These sky-blue hydrangea-themed invitations created for an outdoor wedding were hand-drawn before being digitally scanned and printed on hand-cut, hand-folded, 100 percent recycled paper. While Rethink Ink Design prides itself as an eco-friendly business, designer Jodi Passwaters does not compromise when it comes to quality. “We offer an opportunity to be environmentally responsible while still showing your style and personality,” she says.
