Urban Vintage

I kind of wanted to keep these... but since my business name isn't Leaves of Glass and since Kateri (whose business name is Leaves of Glass) had paid me to make them, I didn't.

I love custom design because I get inspired in completely unexpected directions. This project was so absorbing — coming up with a notecard design to reflect the "urban vintage" look of Leaves of Glass. (Kateri's jewellery is lovely, by the way — and when the earrings have names like "Invitation to the Dance", "Spring in my Step" and "I Call My Sugar Candy" — I want to run out and get my ears pierced.)

Signed Sealed Delivered

I worked on images of vintage Australian one-penny stamps to create these notecards. The original stamp was a rose-red (although it was issued in various colors) but I've made it an earthy brown for these textured flatcards so that manly men can use them too. The printed side is for looking at, the other side is for writing on.

And you'll still need a stamp.
