This weekend was a little bit like Christmas morning in the shop. I finally received my order of wood type and gave them a first inking! Lots of different designs will be coming soon (I’ve been thinking about this for months!), but in the mean time, here’s a sneak peak:
Life and work have managed to get in the way of printing and blogging lately (have you heard this story before?), but I wanted to share these business cards I made over the last few months!
These were a three-color card—double sided with two ink colors on the front, so they were printed over a period of about six weeks. The clean design printed beautifully, and I especially love the reverse treatment we did with the lower case ‘k’.
The business card listing is now back in the shop. I only work on two or three at a time, so if you’re interested, get in touch while they’re available!
I finished up a whole bunch of recipe cards last weekend—these and more available in the shop—enjoy!
Get it? Tag! Loopy post-workday humor aside, I’m excited to share the latest re-purposed scrap piece to come out of the studio! I’ve been printing furiously lately, and that means lots of test sheets full of letterpress goodness. I’ve always loved traditional hang tags, so I thought they’d be perfect. Just one set available now (they take a while to cut!), more soon! Enjoy!
One of the best parts about buying handmade directly from the artist is the ability to collaborate on custom work. Unfortunately, this can be an expensive, overwhelming and relatively slow process, so I’ve been working on ways to make custom letterpress pieces more accessible. The solution? A customizable piece with a finite number of choices for each aspect of the design.
Introducing custom monogram note cards with the following options:
1. Choose your initials (2-4 characters):
2. Choose your design:
3. Choose a color from the palette:
Purchase the listing and wait just a few weeks for your cards!
