I am enchanted with this “Star” letterpressed holiday card, made for Beekman 1802 by Foxglove Press. Minimalist and oh so lovely. (And the wrapping!)

But even better yet is the video at Beekman 1802’s “How Too” blog showing the letterpress process. Click over and watch it here. It made me want the cards all the more.

The 2009 calendar is all hand lettered. I think September is my favorite. Or maybe May? Nah, it has to be February …..

Love, love, love this letterpressed bicycle print. Measures about 6 x 8 3/4″ (and it comes in orange, too). So fun and only $15. From Bittersugar.

These gift tags would work for any tagging needs. They’re simple, they’re striking, and bonus: they’re orange.

From withlovedesigns. Be sure to check out the rest of the etsy shop because it is full of little things every crafter/gifter/stationery nut needs. (I’ve added it to my Google Reader and I have my eye on some cellophane bags. For what, I’m not sure. I just feel that I need them.)

Black Pearl Press 2009 Calendar

black pearl press 2009 letterpress calendar | simple pretty

My very own Black Pearl Press calendar arrived on Monday, and I love it! Not only is the paper a gorgeous light grey, I love Elisabeth’s artwork, cut out of construction paper and then scanned/manipulated. (Even better, what looks like a blind deboss is actually white ink. Cool, huh? Love how the months/numbers are subtly “there”. If I messed up the terminology, feel free to correct me in the comments, E!)

I have to get back on the site this morning and order a few more as gifts. I know some people who would really like one of their very own ….
