Weekly Wrap #20 : Admit One

Weekly Wrap
Danny Seo Simply Green Giving

Wow, I can’t believe that this is already Weekly Wrap #20! Time sure does fly, doesn’t it? I hope that you’re enjoying this feature, because I’m certainly having a fun time finding new and interesting gift wrap ideas.

This week’s idea comes from eco-friendly lifestyle expert, Danny Seo, whose brilliant concept for turning leftover rolls of admission tickets into a fantastic wrapping paper/bow combo was a must feature. Love the subdued red and blue color palette that the tickets create! Who would’ve thought that admission tickets would make for such a sophisticated look? The idea is from Danny’s book, Simply Green Giving, and I actually think that I’m going to pick up a copy for myself over the weekend. If most of the gift wrap ideas in the book are as cool as this one, then I’m in for a real treat!

Have a wonderful weekend, everyone, and I’ll see you back here on Monday!

Letterpress Invitations by Swayspace

I’ve been in full drool since discovering Swayspace’s portfolio of letterpress wedding invitation work, but I’d be remiss if I didn’t also show you the awesome letterpress annual report that they printed for Feltron (above — designed by Nicholas Felton). Pretty fantastic, right?

Here are just a few selections from Swayspace’s letterpress invitation portfolio. Ah, faux bois, gorgeous color palettes, and beautiful design!

Beau Ideal Spanish Cards

I’m loving the palettes and the wonderful folk illustrations on these Spanish language, hand screen printed greeting cards by Beau Ideal. The illustrations actually remind me a bit of the papel picado (Mexican papercutting) designs that are so hot right now. Here’s a peek:
