Business cards

When I saw this, I thought it was such a lovely, simple and effective idea for an acupuncturist's business cards.

Melbourne Cup

So today is the big Melbourne Cup... good luck if you've put a bet on. I loved this cute invite designed for the staff at Samantha Wills for their Melbourne Cup Luncheon!

Letterpress Business Cards

A dream of mine one day would be to have some letterpress business cards of my own - I love that deep letterpress impression on thick textured paper stock. the luxurious feel it gives. Here are some prints by Studio Z Mendocino. Loving the colours of them!

Initial Stamps

I just came across some beautiful stamps featured at MaeMae Paperie which are simple and elegant. The placement of the initial letters, complements the rounded circle shape so well. The typography is so simple but elengant and what makes it for me is the use of the ink when it touches the textured card. I want to buy a J for myself now.

Heidi Klein Packaging

Heidi Klein is a UK  store selling clothing, swimwear and lounge wear. I love their luxury packaging with the use of textured paper, color and pattern which reflect the natural textured materials used in their stores while the high end production values reflect the quality of the product.

Becker Minty

I love the sheike elegant packaging at Becker Minty which sell a collection of accessories, fashion, gifts, homewares, antique and modern jewellery and art.

Bespoke Letterpress

This video gives you an insight into Bespoke Press' letterpress studio and printing. I have always loved letterpress, so it was amazing to see the process behind it (the machines are totally different to how I imagined)
