Leaf and Straw Letterpress Cards

April 23, 2012 // kristen // 0 replies

I’m absolutely delighted to see that Moontree Letterpress and Studio Carta have expanded their collaborative Leaf and Straw collection to include these beautiful new letterpress cards, which feature the same patterns as the gorgeous hand-bound books, which I swooned over last fall, only on a slightly smaller scale.

The letterpress cards, available for purchase singly or in sets of six, are printed on cotton paper and come with coordinating envelopes. Three color combinations are available : Red and Gray, Chartreuse and Gray, or Marigold and Blue.
