mrs. bee of weddingbee contacted us recently to design + print business cards for cathy. and when cathy couldn’t decided which of our three design options she liked best, she decided to poll the readers. we absolutely love how they turned out.

thanks mrs. bee + cathy! we really enjoyed working with you.

we decided to repurpose some letterpress remnants and fashioned these sweet gift tags. they’re printed with a soft, pale aqua blue and are reminiscent of lined paper. only a few are available, but you can pick them up in our shop here.

hope you had a restful weekend. we spent ours mostly printing [with mj playing in the background, sigh].

we’ve just updated our little shop. sweet baby announcements + custom stationery. i created the announcements a while back for a good friend of mine. with her blessing, we’ve included them in our shop. enjoy :]

Right before jetting off to Paris, we dropped these cheery, custom graduation announcements into the mail. The graduate, Julie, contacted us for her special project, and she suggested “Finally” be pressed into the envelope. So, on the back flap, I incorporated a hand drawn graduation tassle with her request. I love how they turned out! They’re fun, yet formal. Happy graduation, Julie. And big congrats to you!

Our cousin just moved into a fantastic Spanish style home. A new home means a great opportunity to create moving announcements. And when he contacted us to do them, I knew I wanted to create something completely custom. Using pictures of his new home, I reached for my pencil and paper and sketched out his house. The archway. The large tree. The shrubs. All down to his house numbers sign.

We loved this project so much, we’ve decided to start offering custom sketched moving announcements in our shop.

Little Max has a big sister named Isabella. She’s turning two. She’s loves pink and bubbles and balloons and these custom invites for her little party!

We just finished printing sweet little tags for a girl named Sophie. She’s one, and these little tags are perfect for her gifts to other kids.

We’ll be offering custom tags like these in our shop very soon!

Update: The shop has been newly stocked! Check out this listing here.

While mixing ink, I stopped to snap this picture. It’s neat how all the primary colors + a little black blend to make chocolate brown.
