Oh So Beautiful Paper

While the last round-up was all about color, if you’ve been reading this blog for any period of time, you know that I love a good blind (inkless) letterpress card.  Whether totally inkless or with a hint of transparent spot varnish, these winter white cards are perfect for the holidays.  So as I was pulling together these round-ups, I thought I’d save my final round-up just for these subtle and sophisticated designs.

I’ll probably continue to share a few more holiday cards as I find them, but that’s it for major holiday card round-ups this year!  Hopefully you’ve found your favorite holiday card – and just as a reminder you can find all of the past round-ups right here.

   I adore this last one. Your holiday card round ups are majorly inspirational! I just sent mine to the printer and I’m dying to get them. Metallic ink letterpressed. Be still my heart.

   AND did you notice that the last card from Atlas & Campbell has the lyrics to “Holiday” by Madonna?! Good lord. That’s awesome.
