Gold Foil Holiday 2015 Cards Available Now!

Hello Letterpress Lovers! Just a quick post to let you know that the 2015 Sunlit Letterpress Holiday Card is now available for purchase on Etsy. This year I hand lettered "Let it Snow" in brush script with sumi ink along with some snowflake designs and ink blots, and transferred the design in gold foil to a thick white 120 lb. cover. The cards are available in sets of 4 or 10 and ship within 24 hrs. Limited quantities are available, so order early to avoid disappointment! Limited rush wholesale orders on this design are available – please contact the studio for details.

 

Copper Foil Happy Birthday Cards

I just love foil – don't you? There is something so special about gold, copper or silver foil against a nice piece of thick card stock. Foil printing is such a hot trend these days, and we thought it might be nice to mix it up with some of our other favorite trends (delicate calligraphy and a folksy floral art pattern). The background floral pattern was digitized from an acrylic painting I did earlier this year in black, white, and shades of grey (not 50 shades of grey...but close). The "happy birthday" lettering was printed in a copper foil and extends to the edges of the card.  You can buy these foil birthday cards in sets of 4 with envelopes in our Etsy shop.

The plants – well, those are from a bush outside our studio. I can't take any credit for them since they were here before we moved in. I love the little berries; although they do cause me a lot of grief, since I am constantly shooing my children away from them (they think they are blueberries), and I have just assumed they are poisonous. If you know what they are, please let me know :)
