You Are One of a Kind

Sat, 04 Feb 2012 00:08:48 +0000

You are One of a Kind: A very lovely handmade Valentine’s Day Card!

Lately, I have been collecting circus inspired fonts and was thinking about how you have one-of-a-kind experiences under the big top. Being ‘one-of-a-kind’ seemed fitting for a Valentine’s Day Card, thus this card was born!

This lovely card is printed in red ink on our 1920 letterpress by hand. The ink is hand mixed in my studio for a unique color pallet.

The card reads: You Are 1 of a Kind
Inside: Blank

All portions of the this card was created by us: the design and printing.

The Valentine is paired with a white envelope with a linen texture.
