HELLO Banner Card Tutorial by Carissa Wiley

Designer Carissa Wiley made these fabulous birthday cards and even made a video to demonstrate. Check it out here. I love how she incorporated multiple letterpress printing plates and die-cutting! This would be a very fun card to receive on your birthday, don't you think? These would also make for great party invitations.

A Letterpressed Birth Announcement.

Getting birth announcements letterpressed is usually near impossible. It's too expensive, takes too much time, and it is hard to find someone that is willing to create such a small quantity of prints. That is where the L Letterpress comes in handy.  It was specifically made for those of us who want high quality letterpress projects without having to stress over the tough-to-find resources.  This letterpressed invite is brilliant! Don't you love the pop-open window created with the A7 Collection die set? The thick letterpress paper really makes this project feel high quality and professional. Beautiful job done by Carissa Wiley! See below for products used.

Epic Die-cutting and Letterpress Tool
