Aurum Stria : Spring 2006 collection

This, our first collection, entitled Aurum Stria, is made up of three designs: Morning, Afternoon and Evening.

Each card is hand printed with care on a C & P Pilot letterpress. Unlike cards that are letterpress printed by a professional print-house, our cards are made in a small workshop room where there is just one small press and one small press operator. As each piece of bright white heavy stock goes through the press it is given an impression. We find it very inspiring that the impression is different for each and every card.

This collection use a metallic gold ink and three shades of hand-mixed blues. Each blue represents the three times of day ... the three shades of the sky during those times ... how we love Spring!

These beautiful cards are versatile enough to be used for any occasion!
