LETTERPRESS CHRISTMAS CARD SET ~ MEDIEVAL TILES ~ TERRACOTTA

Letterpress Christmas cards printed by hand, the traditional way.
I printed this set of cards using lead type on my vintage printing press.

These aren’t overtly Christmassy Christmas cards, no snow, reindeer or Father Christmas, but they have just enough holly to give a subtle nod to the festive season.

Both the colours and the designs for these cards are inspired by medieval tiles, mainly floor tiles, often found in old churches.

If you would like to know more about the designs and inspiration for these, I have written about it in my diary. (There is a button for it at the top of the page.)

There are five cards in a pack, one of each design.
These are small cards 9.5cm / just under 4 inches.
Printed onto a nice white, textured, heavyweight 300gsm card.
Blank inside and with a recycled envelope.
Printed with ink that will not fade, so suitable for framing.

If you would like a personal set of cards assembling I can do that for you, use the contact page and tell me what you would like.
