Leaf and Straw Letterpress Cards

April 23, 2012 // kristen // 0 replies

I’m absolutely delighted to see that Moontree Letterpress and Studio Carta have expanded their collaborative Leaf and Straw collection to include these beautiful new letterpress cards, which feature the same patterns as the gorgeous hand-bound books, which I swooned over last fall, only on a slightly smaller scale.

The letterpress cards, available for purchase singly or in sets of six, are printed on cotton paper and come with coordinating envelopes. Three color combinations are available : Red and Gray, Chartreuse and Gray, or Marigold and Blue.

Fortyfive Design

I am completely digging the vibrant, modern paper goodies from New Zealand’s Fortyfive Design. This fabulous female design trio get their creativity on in a studio that overlooks the beautiful Wellington Harbour and, while the work that they do is mostly commercial, their first love is self-directed greeting card and art print projects, which allow them to follow their fancies and experiment with aesthetic and print possibilities. Fortyfive’s paper goods collection has grown to over 20 greeting cards and 10 art prints that can be found in shops across New Zealand or in their online shop (they ship internationally, too!).

Each member of the Fortyfive trio brings her own flavor to the mix, making the collection diverse and playful, with screen printed and digital printed designs that showcase great typography, hand-lettering, and eye-catching illustration. Here’s a peek at what you’ll find in the Fortyfive shop:
