January 18, 2011 // kristen // 1 replies

I’m completely digging the results of the recent collaboration between calligrapher Leigh Wells and Milkfed Press! This set of six cheeky letterpress greetings would make a fantastic gift or addition to your everyday correspondence stash, and the “Love You” and “XOXO” greetings could also double as Valentine’s Day cards.

Cards are letterpress printed with charcoal ink on white paper and come with kraft envelopes. Each set is wrapped in a glassine envelope tied with twine. Pick up your set over at Leigh Wells’ site.
