Floral Wrapped Letterpress Cards

January 07, 2014 // kristen // 0 replies

They’re cards. They’re gifts. They’re totally cool! Wrapped Cards from The Hungry Workshop capture the idea that the sentiment is often just as important as the gift that you’re giving and that the simple act of giving a card can be a gift, in and of itself. These clever, gatefold cards are each “tied” with a bow and “wrapped” in a beautiful, Australian floral pattern letterpress printed in magenta + turquoise. Each card opens in the middle to reveal your message inside.

Available for purchase in a bundle of three or as single cards.

House Rules Letterpress Cards

January 07, 2014 // kristen // 0 replies

Banshee Press’ “House Rules” letterpress card series showcases the mischievous side of classic playing card characters and, whoa, I wouldn’t want to meet these guys, gal, or dog in a dark alley! The fantastic, illustrated cards would be great to send to a card playing friend with an edgy sense of humor, and I think they’d also look awesome framed and hung on the wall of a game room or a man cave. Check ’em out:

Treehouse Letterpress Cards & Notebooks

January 06, 2014 // kristen // 2 replies

As much as I love all things paper and stationery, I still find it a little tough to get back into the swing of things after the holiday break, and it’s a wonderful thing when just the right email shows up in my inbox to give me the motivation that I need to start posting about pretty paper again.

This year, that email actually showed up a bit before Christmas, but I knew that I wanted to share its contents with you as soon as I got back to posting in January, and I think you’ll agree that these paper goodies add a little magic and dreams of the warm months to come to cold, winter days. Get ready for some treehouse love!

Seattle-based Constellation & Co. recently finished a brand new series of paper goods in collaboration with their Washington State neighbors, Treehouse Point, and the new series of treehouse-themed letterpress gifts features each of Treehouse Point’s six gorgeous treehouses. The collection includes a boxed set of six notecards, single cards, and sketchbooks (blank) or notebooks (lined). These magical letterpress goodies offer a wonderful way to escape for a moment into the “treehouse state of mind”.

Check out the whole series in Constellation & Co.’s Etsy shop or in person at Treehouse Point, where you can stay the night in a beautiful treehouse and then take home a hand printed memento of your getaway.
