as featured on the Say “I Do” Up North Bridal Expo & Website:
Graphic Designer & Printer ~ B.J. Litsenberger
A graphic designer and co-owner of The Print Shop in downtown Houghton ~ B.J. has been an artist, illustrator and print creative for over 40 years.
She loves designing Save-The-Date cards and formal Wedding Invitations, as well as the Programs ~ keeping a coordinated design across all products.
She can custom design your invitations for you, or for the budget conscious bride, The Print Shop can take your print-ready PDF file that you design and layout, or purchase from an Etsy designer (call ahead for The Print Shop’s tech specs).
The Print Shop can also supply the wedding reception with custom imprinted Dinner and Cocktail Napkins and Coasters, print Way-Finder Yard Signs (for the reception location route), Banners for outside the reception hall doors, or above the head table, Large Format Seating Charts, Table Place Cards, Bride and Groom “Honeymooners” T-Shirts, and of course Thank You Cards.
When not at the shop, B.J likes to decompress at home in the Chassell countryside with her hubby and business partner Tom and their Cocker Spaniel mix Brandy and Nebelung cat Skeeter ~ both adoptees from the local shelter.
PS: it is important to start planning and getting your ideas organized well in advance for best availability and be sure to allow plenty of time for The Print Shop’s full-service work (please be aware, the print and signage industries are experiencing Supply Chain Issues, so it's best to “get in line” way in advance for many of their products and services and not wait until the last minute).

SAVE MONEY WITH ISTOCK PRE-ILLUSTRATED INVITATIONS
I can custom design your invitation from scratch, or I can modify any of the existing designs found on iStock, please check out this link to see the variety that either fits or come very close to our standard paper sizes (5"x7" is common for the invitations)
https://www.istockphoto.com/collaboration/boards/r9itinv7mk6UdPbDttZbiQ
When browsing over their selection, please keep the following things in mind:
Some of their designers have created GROUPINGS of designs, great for having coordinating Save-The-Date cards, formal Invitations, RSVP cards and Thank You cards ~ and in the example below, the first image can be used as the front cover of a folded invite, or the front side of a 2-sided non-folding card ~ I can also use the same art elements to create the Wedding Program layout, as well as for items printed for the reception.

an example of a file-set that offers a Back-of-Card pattern, for a 2 sided, non-folding invitation:
(their grey lines in the background are not part of the invitation design)
(their grey lines in the background are not part of the invitation design)
please be aware, images that look like GOLD are "painted" to look metallic, but will not be printed with metallic ink nor will they be foil stamped ~ they will be like a photo of gold artwork (and YES, any of the art from iStock can be used on Champagne and Wine Labels at your reception)
if you find a design you want to use on iStock, please email me a link AND their stock number
and I can then purchase and download their file for you (after having your credit card info on file to secure the order) ~ or you can purchase it and download it, then send their file to me
