Letterpress Lust

We all have those little luxuries that we dream about. For me one of them is thick, creamy, letterpress business cards!  AND adorable letterpress stationary.  Here are some sweet samplings from one of my favorite Etsy letterpress shops: Sycamore Street Press. They literally have something for every occasion.


I can't imagine getting this card and not feeling loved!















It is hard to make a card about being in love without treading into SAPPY ZONE.

THIS CARD SUCCEEDS BEAUTIFULLY!!  I love the tenderness, the elegance, and the easy heartfulness. I want one for my husband... and one for myself.









Sometimes there's nothing as cute as made-up numbers, especially when paired with the flourishes of victorian shop lettering.  I love the melding of the childish spirit and the antique style.... all in a charming modern analygous color scheme.











Last, but not least.... tasteful and stylish baby cards! How hard are these to find??

I am delighted by the whimsical but sophisticated font, the "hand-drawn" quality of the leaves, and the warmth and confidence of the orange ink.

When I have a baby, these are the kinds of cards I want to find in my mailbox..... but no time too soon, please.



Enjoy these little treasures, and check out the wealth of other goodies at Etsy.
