Christmas Cards: Kyle & Faye 2015

I definitely enjoy the chance to do some screen printing completely for my own use, since it is an opportunity to push my limits and experiment without an actual deadline. Christmas cards are one of those times of year where I take a chance, even though the holidays get busy and I’m often scrambling to get our cards printed and in the mail.

For this year, I’d had this idea of a Scandinavian style in my head for quite some time, but I also knew I wanted something really bold with multiple colors. The final design fit the bill, bold and graphic (and with metallic gold ink, of course). I was happy to send these through the mail, although I wish I had made more to send out!

To say I like these cards is an understatement – I am so happy with how they turned out. Because I am who I am, my own projects are often over the top, with all of my favorite creative elements thrown in. Enter this year’s Christmas cards. Usually I dream up a beautiful idea, wait too long and send out something else last minute. Except this year, I was determined; four days before Christmas found me screen printing these puppies. Metallic gold ink – check. Full bleed artwork – check. Gold calligraphy – check. One crazy excited Faye – check!

p.s. If you didn’t receive a card from us this year, I do apologize. In my haste, I didn’t count how many we actually needed and figured forty would be plenty and it wasn’t.

When considering where to expand my greeting card line, my mind always goes to new birthday cards. There are always birthdays happening and every person is unique, so I have fun designing new ideas to celebrate. Recently, four new birthday cards found their way into my shop, just in time for the holiday craft fairs. Find one perfect for your next birthday boy or girl!

To expand my greeting card offerings, I wanted to use some fun messaging that are not tied to a single holiday. It’s always a good time to tell someone that they are special to you and babies are born year round – so I had some ideas to start out designing. All cards are screen printed by hand in my home studio, each with two ink colors. Now available in my shop!

Spreading a little holiday cheer with screen printing! I have so many ideas for cards this year, so I decided to design and print multiple sets and make them available in my Etsy shop. There’s a mix of traditional and modern, hopefully something to make everyone smile.
