simplesong designs: twine, pencils, and notecards | simple pretty

Warning: if you don’t like gushy posts, today might not be for you ……

Today’s post illustrates all that I love about blogging and the internet. I discovered Suann and simplesong designs earlier this year when I ordered her library valentine’s day card. Her minimalist designs suit me perfectly, and we have so many likes in common that I feel like I know Suann, even though we’ve never met. Now, after a road trip to Chicago to pick up a C&P tabletop press, she’s expanding into letterpress, and I love it all. Check out the photos below, all courtesy of Suann: I’ll let the pictures do the talking:

i don’t think these are letterpressed, but they were too cute not to share!

Suann is working on a couple of custom projects for me right now, and I can’t wait to show them to you. In the meantime, check out the simplesong etsy shop as well as her blog. It’s one of my daily reads: our tastes are sooooo similar, and I look forward to her “finds”. (You can find both links at my sidebar starting today.)

Thanks, Suann!

Enjoy, and I’ll see you tomorrow!
