My kind of greeting card
So I recently decided that I don’t know a thing about graphic design–which is kind of unfortunate seeing as this is my intended career path. In an attempt to correct my ignorance, I’ve started reading a bunch of design blogs/sites.
During my web travels I came across Sycamore Street Press, a Columbus, OH stationery outfit that hand-prints their cards on a vintage letterpress. I know, right? That’s devotion. The cards are beautifully made, and I dig the muted/earthy color palate, but the clincher here are the messages. I’m one of those people who would rather show up to a party empty-handed than with one of those ‘normal’ birthday cards, so I was instantly drawn to these.
Also see: “Spoiler Alert: Someone got you a toaster” and “I expect a thank you note for this thank you note.”
I think I know where I’m doing my shopping from now on.
