Business Cards – Moontree Letterpress

I've definitely got business cards on the brain this week!  Moontree Letterpress recently started offering these customizable business card templates in their etsy store, designed primarily for fellow etsy shop keepers. 

The templates and limited ink choices allow Moontree to keep the costs down, which is great for independent designers and shops seeking to promote their businesses.  My favorites are the button and spool designs:

You can find the other designs in their etsy shop right here.  Moontree Letterpress also has a fabulous portfolio of wedding invitations, business cards, and custom projects.  You can check out their full portfolio here, and some of their recent projects on the Moontree Letterpress blog right here.

My Business Cards – and new sponsor introduction!

As I get ready to head up to the National Stationery Show this weekend, I figured it was about time to have some business cards made up for myself.  I jumped at the chance to work with Suann from simplesong design.  Suann really went above and beyond for this little project, creating an absolutely gorgeous set of business cards and matching letterpress note cards:

The business cards were printed in soft gray ink with a blind stamped patterned background on Crane’s 110# bright white cotton lettra paper, while the note cards were printed on pearl white 110# lettra:

I love, love them – and I’m very much looking forward to sending some notes on my new stationery!  Thanks so much Suann!

I’m also very excited to announce that simplesong designs is my newest sponsor here at Oh So Beautiful Paper!  As you can tell, I truly adore Suann’s work – from her readymade cards to her custom wedding invitations, baby announcements, and business collateral:
