I do like those designs, and love the way they’ve been photographed on suitable fabric backgrounds.
I forgot you guys might like this stuff. When wandering SF the other month I ran across printing presses and just had to take a look (before the internet, I was a printmaker):

Nice people, with some nicely done stuff. Mostly commercial work, like wine labels, but they’ll do anything for the money. Like wedding invitations, etc. So, good to keep in mind if you like letterpress stuff.
I love the “thinking of you” card! Fantastic colors and artwork!
I bought the Hello cards in several colors last month at Church Street Apothecary in San Francisco! I love them. And the shop is wonderful as well.

I’m a long-time d*s lurker, but I just had to comment today. Mara and Anna are old work friends of mine, and I’ve been eagerly awaiting their letterpress designs for years now. I’m so happy to see that their brilliance has reached you!
