Printed in beautiful silver and lake inks, we can’t get enough of these gorgeous letterpress calling cards and matching correspondence cards. Honored in our most recent Smock Design Contest, we created these pieces for the fine folks at By Invitation Only in Little Rock, Arkansas. From the color combination to the simple, statement-making monogram, this is one of our favorite social stationery sets to date.
We happened upon these pretty paper pinwheels made from our Market recycled wrapping paper and thought they’d be fun to share. Created by Etsy seller Elizabeth St., her shop features an assortment of lovely handmade paper wares. It’s always a treat seeing how paper crafters put our gift wrap to work. If you have a great project to share, be in touch!

These show-stopping letterpress bar mitzvah invitations were brought to us by LS Amster Co in Scarsdale, New York and we were happy to honor them in our most recent Smock Design Contest. The design was inspired by the boy’s love of swimming. The “scales” of our Odeon pattern on the reverse paired with our Phelps pattern for the envelope liner evokes the feeling of water and movement. The bold peacock blue ink is refreshing and is balanced by the earthy espresso. It’s a stunning combination that we just can’t get enough of and we’re proud to have worked with LS Amster on this lovely design.

Recently we were honored to have Brides ask us to create our vision of the perfect invitation for the upcoming royal wedding. With our Aberdeen letterpress invitations as our inspiration, we wanted to create something modern yet very sophisticated and regal. In shades of peacock and chartreuse paired with elegant script and a square shape, we love this look for a formal and stylish wedding celebration. We envision them enclosed in envelopes with a fabulous liner, gorgeous hand calligraphy and a patchwork of vintage stamps to complete the look. Check out all of the designs on the Brides magazine website and many thanks to our friends at Brides for asking us to contribute!

An envelope lined in azalea Seneca stripes is the perfect finishing touch. We love how these turned out! Many thanks to Libby for working with us on this truly inspired design.
