mad for typography

i found this awesome letterpress printed poster of a quote from don draper (mad men) on the lovely petite alma blog. the poster was designed by justin van genderen. cool typography!

p.s. i'm going to try to do shorter posts but post more often! we'll see how that goes. :)

cutting edge

beast pieces is the design and letterpress blog of the very incredible and inspirational studio on fire. their work in letterpress printing and design is mind-blowing as is evident in their recent self-promo piece/business cards. i love these!

hoot hoot! i'm back!

hello! wow it's been six months. happy to be back! since my last post i now have two little guys who have been keeping me rather busy and exhausted but all in a very good way. :)

for my first post back i just had to share these delightful cards from night owl paper goods. especially love the otter, frogs and sundae editions! they have created a brilliant line of eco-friendly wood cards combined with letterpress printing. how cool is that?

on a non-letterpress side-note, i also love their customized holiday cards out now....). enjoy these pics and see you again soon!
