It’s the most wonderful time of the year! I love the Christmas season, the lights, the warmth, the love. I also love the act of giving gifts and sending cards to share that holiday cheer!

My husband and I are excited to stroll Winter Walk here in Hudson, New York today to listen to music, take in the performances, and appreciate the unique shops up and down Warren.

While my stationery might not be available in any local shops (yet!) you can still shop online to get these lovely letterpress cards before they are gone!

Letterpress, as we know it today, is a beautiful method that creates luxurious and tactile prints.

There is so much unseen work for each-and-every printed piece and I think the process is just as beautiful as the results.

See for yourself.
