November 30, 2010 // kristen // 0 replies

The fantastic holiday letterpress cards keep coming! Today, I’ll be sharing my last two “A Letterpress Christmas” roundups, though I won’t deny that there may be a fifth roundup if I come across additional letterpress lovelies. What can I say? It’s very tough for me to stop when it’s holiday card time.

I also have at least one more non-letterpress holiday card roundup and a couple of additional “A Letterpress Christmas” shop features before I wrap up my holiday card features for the season. Look for these in the coming week, and check out all of the cards that I’ve shared so far in this year’s “A Letterpress Christmas” series.

Above, clockwise from top left: Happy Santa Holiday letterpress cards from Spring Olive (hee!); Peace Polish folk art inspired holiday cards from Pressbound; Scandinavian folk art inspired holiday letterpress cards from Tokyo Pear Letterpress; Mistletoe and Holly letterpress photo cards from Articulations (love the silver ink on the rich red stock); Girl with Red Cardinal holiday letterpress cards from Pressmade; Warmest Holiday Wishes cards from Elf Letterpress.

Above, clockwise from top left: Celebrate the Season holiday cards from Dutch Door Press; Pine Penguin letterpress cards from Night Owl Paper Goods; From the Ornaments letterpress Christmas cards from Maginating; Winter Reindeer Love cards from Paisley Dog Press; Stockings letterpress holiday cards from Penelope’s Press.

A Letterpress Christmas 2010 : Wild Ink Press

November 29, 2010 // kristen // 1 replies

Holy beautiful letterpress, Batman! Wild Ink Press has me swooning endlessly over their new collection of holiday cards, including this stunning trio of snowflake cards featuring broad letterpress printed areas of saturated color and crisp snowflake patterns in relief. An unexpected technique and a fantastic result – wish I could reach through the screen and run my fingers over these lovelies!

And I’m also loving the clever cards in the Connect the Dots collection, which features letterpress greetings embellished with nostalgia-inducing dot-to-dot themed illustrations and lyrics for favorite holiday songs. So much fun!

Smock has renewed my love for classic Christmas red and green with their new holiday card designs. The collection includes letterpress and offset printed cards in a variety of styles, including flat and folded cards featuring everything from more traditional patterns and visual elements to whimsical modern type and illustration. Love the star pattern lined envelopes, too!
