Custom Letterpress Notecards

August 3, 2015

Nothing is more elegant than crisp black letterpress printing on bright, white cotton paper. Black ink never goes out of style, so it's always a great choice for business stationery.

Here is another simple letterpress note card that we printed recently. We love take on a custom note card for a family of five. The Chinese Zodiak signs add such sweet character to the stationery set, especially when printed in such a striking orange.

We printed a selection of social stationery for a newly-married couple. The clients selected a few different designs and cardstocks. To add another layer of customization, they selected a beautiful printed paper from Paper Source and we used it to line their envelopes.

This is a great option to add individuality to your stationery. It adds some lovely visual appeal as the recipient opens the envelope and also complements the ink used for the letterpress printing.

Designing and printing social stationery is one of our favorite tasks here at Sesame. It's a great opportunity for clients to display their individual style. We printed some really sweet notecards for a little girl and we love how the rabbit illustration looks next to her name.

The font is whimsical yet elegant and the ink color veers away from being gender-specific while still looking warm and pretty.

We hope you enjoy your stationery, Lola!

Bespoke envelope lining

June 9, 2014

Most of our printing is custom: our clients love having personalized items with their name/monogram or other individual details included. And for an additional bespoke element, how about choosing your own paper to line envelopes? You can go for something simple in a single color or choose a really unique fine paper with a pattern or design.We love how the ink color used on this thank you card is picked up in the verdant lining paper used for the envelopes:

Stationery for ourselves

April 24, 2014

Every so often, we print stationery for ourselves. Whether it's a new set of Sesame Letterpress business cards or notecards with our name at the top, it's always a treat to experiment with some of the layouts and fonts that we regularly work with.Breck was in need of a new set of social stationery so she designed a really lovely, elegant layout:

These are printed in our saturated black ink, using Carolyna font. We love how these have a really strong look while also featuring a few little flourishes and embellishments. So simple and so perfect. Here's a close up of the printing:

Now that Spring is kinda, sorta on its way, we've designed a brand new set of notecards. Even if it's snowing outside the window of our studio, at least we can make it feel sunny and bright on our presses!We've designed a set of 20 cards, featuring four different designs, each in a pretty, pastel color.

Vintage-style notecard designs

Our customizable notecard designs are a really popular product; there's nothing nicer than having personal social stationery to send out thank you notes or quick greetings. We recently added a couple of new designs to the collection which focus on vintage styling.The first layout features the phrase "From the desk of..." and references 1950s stationery designs.
