between graduation announcements, custom business cards, baby announcements and moving announcements, we’ve been quite busy in our little studio. above are house sketch moving announcements we recently completed for a couple of clients. like i’ve mentioned before, i really enjoy going back to the basics and taking pencil to paper to create these custom sketches, and i love how they turned out.
we wanted to share with you recent business cards that we designed + letterpress printed for lauren of every last detail. the back has a faux blind impression. in order to actually see the beautiful damask pattern, we used a very, very pale gray ink. using a touch of color visually separates the pattern from the background. we love how these turned out and really enjoyed working with lauren.
this morning i headed to the post office to drop off these valentine goodies. this is the third year i’ve participated in weddingbee’s valentine’s day swap, and i had such fun putting these together. i used our sweet letterpress card, some twine, glassine envelopes filled with heart shaped red hots and packaged it all up in kraft boxes.
ps - today’s the last day to order your valentine’s day card. we’ve only got a few left + we’re still offering free domestic shipping!
do you heart free shipping? we do. so, we’re offering free domestic shipping on our sweet valentine’s day card. and yes, there’s still time to get it in before heart day :]
we’ve added a few goodies to our etsy shop! first up is this sweet valentine’s day card. i designed it so that it has enough room for writing a personal message.
we also added two new thank you card sets including these cards. although great for everyday use, i thought they would be perfect for giving thanks for bridal shower or baby shower gifts. the rain drops are in a soft gray plus there are several that are blind impressed [no ink] too.
i made these thank you notes to coordinate with the personal gender announcements we designed + printed. they’ve been very useful to express thanks for the lovely baby gifts we’ve received. thinking they would also work well as everyday thank you notes, we printed a few extra and have included them in our shop, too.
enjoy!
how was your holiday weekend? ours was wonderful! as our families gathered around for christmas, we distributed these gender announcements that we designed + printed and got to watch their reactions. i’m so happy we waited to give them the news all together in person.
it’s official, we’re team pink! thanks to all who participated in the gender poll. it was really fun seeing the responses and guesses.
recently, we’ve worked on several custom moving announcements. i thought i’d share with you the outcome since i really love working on these. each home is drawn by hand from a picture that is provided by the client. as much as i love the computer, i really enjoy going back to pencil and paper for projects like this.
we’ve just updated our shop with letterpress printed peace cards + tags. we’ve also offering free standard domestic shipping on all of our holiday collection. enjoy + happy holidays!
we’ve just updated the shop with the first item from our holiday collection. these noël tags are quite handy to have around. they’re perfect for gift tags or favor tags for your holiday gatherings. enjoy!
recently, we received a request for our merci tags to be paired with envelopes instead of clothespins. we loved the idea so much, we’ve decided to include them in our shop! a little bit larger than the original, these merci tags include cute little glassine envelopes. enjoy!
our baby bump announcements were actually quite a project. we didn’t just send out one standard card. instead, each card was individually designed for the recipient. it’s not the smartest use of letterpress printing, but once i got the idea in my head [during one of my many sleepless nights, thanks pregnancy!] i just had to pursue it.
since posting the news, we’ve been overwhelmed with warmth + support from you guys. thank you all so much for the well wishes and words of congratulations.
