Press and Post Letterpress Cards and Vintage Stamps

February 09, 2009 // kristen // 0 replies

I’m loving the idea of the new Press & Post service from Things Are Better with a Parrott. If you love letterpress, and if you also love vintage stamps, then Press & Post was made for you.

As a Press & Post participant, you will receive a monthly delivery of one limited edition letterpress card, and at least two (or more) vintage postage stamps, along with one kraft envelope. The limited edition letterpress cards will be created only for those participating in the service, so it’s as if you’re receiving your own little letterpress collectible every month! See more information about Press & Post and sign up for either 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, or 1 year of the service here.

Letter Impress Invitations at Target

February 09, 2009 // kristen // 9 replies

I was wandering through Target last week and discovered this pretty collection of printable invitations, called Letter Impress. I guess I don’t go to Target enough, though, because this collection has been around since last year. Oops! Though the cards aren’t genuine letterpress, more like a printed card with debossed accents, the invitations are pretty and modern and keep with the color and design trends of the day.

The Letter Impress collection is designed by Gartner Studios exclusively for Target, and the price tag ($34.99 for a kit that makes 50 invitations) is very friendly for those brides who would love to have a letterpress wedding suite but are unable to fit custom letterpress invites into their budget.

I’m all about decorative tape lately, and I just about squealed when these pretties by designer Carolyn Gavin for TapeSwell popped up in my email.

TapeSwell offers single rolls of decorative tape, combo packs, envelope wraparounds, and very clever mailing label tape. So cute, and did you see that they have a faux bois style?! I’m totally there! Thanks for the tip, Mary!
