Home Sweet Home Letterpress Card

Letterpress Home Sweet Home Card

Antique Wood Type and Ornament

Check out these incredible letterpress “Home Sweet Home” cards by Typoretum! The four color cards were printed using antique wood letters and ornament, cleverly arranged to create a lovely little typographic house with smoke coming from its chimney. These cards would be wonderful for sending notes of congratulations to friends and family who have just moved into a new place or finished a big remodeling project.

Typoretum + I Love Typography = Awesome

John Boardley of ilovetypography.com recently commissioned Typoretum letterpress studio to print a typographical design set in the recently released digital font, Restraint, and the result is stunning. The relief plate used to create the letterpress prints is a work of art in and of itself! Check out a few of Typoretum’s images from the creation process below, and purchase the Typographic Restraint limited edition print at the i love typography shop.

Typoretum UK Letterpress Cards

UK based letterpress shop, Typoretum, just launched an outstanding line of hand-printed, limited edition cards created using antique wooden and metal letterpress type, decorative borders, and printers’ fleurons. I’m loving their use of the antique type to create modern cards, and I’m drooling over the pictures of antique type that compliment the images of their card line at their website.

Typoretum’s cards are printed using vegetable-based inks, and the paper used is 100% cotton fiber, a by-product of the clothing industry. You can purchase cards on Typoretum’s website.
