the fox with the golden fur

First of all, I had no idea what to call this post, but its such a lovely package design that I had to post it! I love all of the details in the piece; the paper cutting, the beautiful illustrations, the layering, the simple box design and the ornate page design. Such an imaginative piece! by Ultra Creative via French Paper Sample Room

New items in my shop! I’ve been selling these items at local craft shows but hadn’t had the chance to photograph them for the shop, until now. You’ve seen the Fancy birthday card in one of my previous posts. The fill in the blank 3 pack is one of my favorite new items—these cards can be sent to absolutely anyone, you create the message and tone. And lastly, a simple thank yoü 3 pack.

A few images from our booth at Artscape this past weekend. It was a very busy, hot and exhausting three days, but well worth it—I loved seeing how people responded to our products. I think our Letterpress booth was a big hit, the combination of all our different design styles and products was unique and we truly had something for everyone.
