The new letterpress color in greeting cards and placemats by 9Spotmonk were another NSS item that instantly caught my eye. I always look forward to getting greeting cards from my niece because she includes her own special artwork in the interior of the card, and these new Color In Cards will allow children to express and create on the exterior of the cards, too!
9Spotmonk also has letterpress printed Color In Placemats, and I can’t help but want some of these for myself. The placemats are made from 100% eco-friendly materials and come in two designs. I think that they would be perfect for kids’ birthday parties, or you could use them to add a special touch to dinner at home or in a restaurant.

You KNOW I love this post!
I definitely thought of you when I was putting the post together, Erin! I’ve been having coloring/crayon synchronicities everywhere for the past couple of weeks. It’s been great!

Thanks Paper Crave!
Love that there’s a giveaway! I hope I win!
I saw a lot of this new work at NSS and thought it was super duper. Such a fun idea. I know my toddler would love coloring the card for his dad.
Hi 9Spotmonk! I first looked at these cards when papercrave mentioned them in the blog and I thought they were the best idea I had seen since the letterpress ornate frame mats came out. My 3 year-old came over to the computer and decided she liked the robot the best. I told her she’d have to wait until payday – what a fortuitous giveaway! The placemats are something I’m going to order, too, because they will work at home as well as in restaurants. Thank you for designing a creative, thoughtful line that is child-oriented, for all the parents who love letterpress.
