Handprinted Cards

For most of my cards, I carve original linoleum or wood block designs and print them on the antique letterpress equipment at the IPRC in Portland, Oregon. All the type is set by hand. The cardstock is hand fed onto the press, and I make multiple passes for each separate element of the card. It's really fun to do!

I also make cards using Print Gocco - a mini hand-silkscreen process from Japan. Check out my blog for more about my creative process making some of my cards.

Custom cards are also available! I can add customized text to any of my cards, or can create new custom designs for your special occasion. Check out my custom cards page for examples and more information.
