Paper Goodness...

I'm going to meet with the guy who I'm buying the press from today and hang out around his studio! I'm so excited! So, before I leave here's a quick little post about....letterpress. What else? 

I found these on the blog of Linda and Harriet, a line of wonderful letterpress stationary and invitations.  They're out of NYC, I believe, but this weekend their in LA at the Emmy's gifting suite. How cool is that? Anyway, this was for a couple that really wanted letterpress, but couldn't afford the prices that went along with it, so the sweet ladies at L&H took two of their stationary pieces and used them to make the invitation! How sweet is that? I love that they were willing to work with the client to achieve their dream for their budget. Very cool of them. Go buy something from them to reward their kindness!

If you haven't already heard about it, please go here and read about Stephanie and her husband Christian. After that, go out into blogland and do some shopping. Design Mom has a list of all the blogs and what they are auctioning. Buy a lot! It's practically guilt free and it is definitely going to a great cause. I believe that DM also has a link to an update, so make sure you check back. I can't explain how my heart just aches for their children. I could not imagine this happening to my family, I don't know if I could be as strong as they are. Please keep Stephanie and Christian, their 4 (!!) children and extended family in your thoughts and prayers.
