I'm not a huge fan of how early so many retailers start pushing the holiday season these days (hello Costco with Christmas decorations for sale in September!), but I figure mid-November is acceptable for introducing our letterpress Christmas/holiday card for this year. So, here it is – the 2013 Joy & Sparkle card – now available for sale in the Sunlit Letterpress online letterpress shop.
Although I love the look of hot foil, I wanted more of a sparkle effect for these holiday letterpress cards. "Wishing you holiday joy and sparkle" text is letterpress printed on luxurious thick 110 lb. Crane Lettra Pearl White cover stock in light pink and light green. Some of the larger green confetti dots have been embellished with glitter for extra sparkle. Includes Crane Lettra Pearl White envelopes for mailing. Buy a set for yourself or as a gift set for someone special.

Last year we didn't print any holiday cards since our youngest had just been born two months prior to the holidays, and I missed designing and printing them. We have limited quantities this year and usually sell out of our yearly design, so purchase early to avoid disappointment. We also have coordinating gift tags with "sparkle & joy" coming soon to the letterpress shop.
