Copper Foil Art Prints by Seven Swans Stationery

August 24, 2015 // kristen // 0 replies

These beautiful copper foil art prints by Seven Swans Stationery are perfectly understated and sophisticated, and I’m lovin’ the combination of copper foil with both the rich black and beautiful blush papers.

Each print in the collection features a different, inspiring quote. Included are “Hello Sunshine”, “Courage, Dear Heart”, “Speak the Truth Even if Your Voice Shakes”, and “You Are My Greatest Adventure”, and the prints are available framed or unframed.

Be sure to head on over and check out all of the lovely prints (gold foil, too!) in the Seven Swans shop.

American Dream by Lindsay Letters

July 01, 2015 // kristen // 2 replies

American Dream by Lindsay Letters is filled with absolutely beautiful hand lettering, and it’s also a wonderful slice of modern day Americana, so it’s the perfect choice for Hand Lettered Love this week, which culminates in the 4th of July, the quintessential American holiday.

The collection includes hand lettered letterpress, foil pressed, downloadable, and canvas art prints that feature lyrics and quotes from patriotic songs and more. And I was immediately drawn in by the palette of rich reds, golds, and blues, which give the collection a wonderful, heirloom feel. These beautiful pieces would make great gifts for collectors of Americana and lovers of all things hand lettered. Head on over to Lindsay Letters to see the full collection.
