Warmer Days - Letterpress Adventures

We're in St Paul Minnesota so we really like to take as much advantage of the summer season as possible. This last summer lasted a little longer than usual but now as the fall approaches I can't help but daydream about warmer days, vacations and day tripping across the country. Here's a pics from driving across the tops of the Blue Ridge Parkway. Such amazing memories and adventures made this last year. IMG_3073

Woo-Hoo! I swear no matter how many years we've been doing invitations, every time I see our work in a printed publication, I get all kinds of super excited! Everyone around the shop is a buzz and our spring/summer clients are starting to come out of hibernation to begin working on their invitation suites. So much fun and great new designs in store for 2015.

Tickets Please!

Here is a set we finished this past summer which eventually found its way into a spread in this seasons issue of Minnesota Bride Magazine. We've had a lot of buzz regarding this invitation suite since then and are now in the works of producing Minnesota Wild themed tickets! They should be quite amazing too. If you're looking for some kind of plane ticket invitation, do let us know as well. There's something already in the works there too!

An Oldie but a Goodie for the Letterpress Blog

We were cleaning the shop this week. While filing away some summer orders, I came across these really cool invitations! Pictured below are the final invitation, rsvp and thank you card designs for Jean Claude and Esther. They selected our Spring Leaf II wedding collection design. After a few quick tweaks, we finalized the beautiful compositions. I can't believe I overlooked adding them to our letterpress blog. I guess I'll never know how that happened? The final letterpress wedding invitations were printed on pearl paper in a sage and dark grey ink combination. Special thanks to JC and Esther for their creative attitude and proactive approach to finalizing all the little details required to make these invitations so tasty! letterpress-invitations-jce1

Spring in Full Swing!

Howdy to all you wedding goers! The wedding season is here! We've swept the salt and sand from the stoop and put the space heaters back in the closet. Dick and Jane Letterpress winter hours have hapily come to an end. We are now on the Spring/Summer schedule. We're open Monday through Friday for walk-in customers with Saturdays currently designated for client meetings, workshops and of course... printing.

Dick and Jane - Love Smart Women!

That's right folks! Dick and Jane Letterpress is extremely excited to announce that we will be teaming up with the wonderfully witty Smart Women Company on their next product release. We don't want to give too much away but the new item is slated for release in the next few months (spring-summer) and will be part of their kitchen essentials line. This will be their first letterpress printed production of hopefully many more to come. Special thanks to Julie Hellwich for giving us the opportunity to be part of this new and exciting project!

For all you Smart Women Company lovers out there...stay tuned!
