Easter Cards are here!



My favorite holiday decorations growing up were the colorful decorated eggs my mom hung from pussy willow branches in our front hall. She got the eggs on a trip to Hungary and what was then Czechoslovakia where they are called hímestojás and kraclise, respectively. Those pretty eggs were my inspiration when creating the drawing for these cards.

As usual, I printed them on my trusty Vandercook letterpress with soy based inks on post consumer recycled card stock, so they are pretty nice to the planet, and have that lovely letterpress texture.

I hope you like them:). I didn't have them done in time to put on my poppytalk handmade table, but you can find them in my Etsy shop or big cartel.

p.s. i've been working on lots more designs, but i'm going to wait and show them to you all at once...probably in may -- right before the national stationery show.
