Can anyone recommend me to someone who can design an invitation suite for me to get a Boxcar plate made?

Have you looked on Etsy? I’m sure there’s a vendor there who could work with you 🙂

@bakerella:  I kinda browsed but I’m an idiot and I’m not even sure what exactly I should search for or how to search for it. Everything I found was actually ordering stationery and not just a template or a design.

On Etsy, you’re going to have to find something you like and ask for the template or digital design. Lots of designers will sell them much cheaper than the stationary suite. Then, you can get the Letterpress designed/printed.

@little_cricket:  If there’s a particular vendor that you like their style but they don’t have exactly what you want, you can always ask them to do a custom listing for you and collaborate on a design you want, and then have them set up and send you the file like Ray Ray suggested 🙂

How complicated of a design are you looking to do?  (I did my design below and sent to Boxcar.)

@zagora:  I don’t want anything complicated at all. I just have absolutely no idea how to make one. I have Pages on my Mac and someone suggested using that and turning it into a PDF but I have no clue what I’m doing. I don’t know where to find the graphics and stuff.

Zagora and I both did our own letterpress invites.  Let me know if I can be of any help as well!

Wasn’t there a website that had a bunch of nice invite templates that you could pay to download? I can’t remember the name of it though.

@little_cricket:  I’m not a graphic designer, but I am designing my own and have gotten some positive reviews form other graphic designers on the bee. I would be happy to offer services if you like. Again, you’re probably more than able to find someone with more skill than I, but again, I would be really happy to help!
