    I know we’re coming into Thanksgiving this next week here in the US, but we all know that the holidays are already on everyone’s minds. If you have been making your list and checking it twice (for mailings at least) and are looking for a mod and simple holiday card then the buck stops here. These A6 cards are letterpress printed and would fit a great wallet or 3×5″ photo of kids, family or a couple. Letterpress printed in sage, on 110# Lettra, it’s a flat card, so no need to fill the inside with a long message. Just put your photos on, sign and send off to all your friends and loved ones! Comes in a set of 10, paired with matching envelopes.

    Chris came to me after feeling too much pressure to create his own announcements for his wedding (he’s a designer too) and needed some outside help with getting it right. The brief behind the event was that it needed to reflect Victorian as the wedding was dominantly following that era. It was a Christmas wedding with all things you can imagine of a typical Victorian Christmas. Sleighs, snowflakes, vintage illustrations, amazing historical mansion, you name it – if it was going to be Victorian, elegant and spectacular – they had thought of it. Below is one of the proofs explored. This was a traditional vertical layout with the emphasis on the silhouetted initial. Another dominant design element used in Victorian publications and invitations of the time period, this is the most minimalist of the three proofs presented. This one didn’t make the cut but I just had to show how beautiful the ornamentation was on the initial. Color scheme:

    So I’ve been doing a lot of tags lately: Aspen, little girl vintage, baby shark, butterflies you get the idea. And I have this friend who just started selling on Etsy this summer. She needed something that doubled as a business card with website info and that could be used as a merchandise tag too. If you like Heather Baily, Amy Butler, Joel Dewbury and more you’ll have to check out her AWESOME Ruthie Bags and aprons.

    Printed on 110#/300 GSM Lettra and sized as a 2×4″ tag with eyelet and ribbon. If you have an Etsy store with merchandise that needs some custom tags, contact me through the listing. These would be great for the holidays as you can use the back for gift messages for clients!

    Comes as a 2×4″ Tag with or without rounded corners, 1 color printed with your logo and set with an eyelet. Also provided with 1/4″ satin ribbon (6″ per tag).

    Here’s another one that might help out with the holiday shopping this year. These initials came from a vintage type book from the early 1900s that I’ve scanned in and digitized. Each letter is a different style and reflective of the Victorian ornamental type era. Simple and classic, easily customizable, these A6 letterpress notes would be a great gift for men or women.
