A few months back (how time flies!) I printed some holiday cards for Iron Leaf Press. I wanted them to be a bit more unique than a traditional, folded card, so after a bit of brainstorming and designing, a paper ornament came to mind (because who doesn’t like paper and ornaments??).

I happened to have some round coaster stock on hand and figured they would work great. They also make a nice textural element to the cards. I paired them with kraft paper and black ink for a more neutral palette, with a pop of gold in the envelopes and ornament hanger.

These cards are now up for competition in Neenah Paper’s Un-show. Please go take a gander and vote for me. To vote, click here and search for “Iron Leaf Press” on their site.

Neenah Paper also launched The Beauty of Letterpress, a site celebrating all that is letterpress. These cards are posted there and I plan on adding more work there as time goes on. In the mean time, check out the Un-show and take a minute to vote!
