1) Happy birthday cards by Grant collaborative – for those of you who made words with your alphabet soup as a kid. 2) "Missing U" card by Blue pool road – aside from the cute pun, I just love the stark simplicity of this all-white letterpressed card. It may take the cake as my favorite of the bunch. 3) Love note by a. favorite design, for your typophile significant other. (I may purchase this for myself, cut off the bottom inch and frame the ligatures for my desk – they're lovely!) 4) Fill-in invitations by Angela Ligouri for any occasion, two-pages each and hand bound with linen thread – RSVP accepted! A surefire way to fill the guest list for your party… and there are lots of cute illustrations to choose – from baby trams to corkscrews. Fun* 5) Air mail inspired thank you cards by Joey's Corner – I'm a true believer that a classic vintage inspired air mail border ties any design together!

Absolutely love those last thank you cards! I'm off to check out these places and see if I can find anyone who makes cool letterpress business cards...
Brandi, Let me know if you need any suggestions for letterpress cards - I probably have a mile long list of vendors... I hope you share the final design, as I'm sure it will be splendid!
i agree jane, the missing u card is genius! off to check out the shop!
The missing U card is just beautiful...and brilliant. I love it!! I love the first card too...took me a second to figure it out :)
Thanks for checking out the Shop. We are enjoying your picks as well as your blog too.
