St. Patrick's Day




Today we did a ton of printing. This is a personalized note card with a shamrock centered on top. We missed St. Patrick's Day by a week, but my mother-in-law is Irish and we were making her a gift. They are printed on Crane's Lettra 100% Cotton Pearl colored paper. This was our first printing on Lettra and I have to say that this soft and fluffy paper is truly the best for letterpress and produces the most amazing impression. I don't care how long I've stared at a design, when I see it pressed into this paper I feel like I'm seeing it for the first time. Wow!

Sunlit Birthday Gift {letterpress}



I got these gorgeous letterpress note cards from my sister over the weekend. They are from Sunlit Letterpress out of Vancouver. Erin McCall is the owner and happens to write my favorite blog Adventures in Letterpress. Of course my sister knew that - she's good, but not that good! If you check out Erin's website or blog you will really see how beautiful the impressions are and how textured and soft the Crane's paper looks, but nothing is better that touching it yourself. Thanks Felicia and Erin!
