Now for this week’s spooky selection:

skull&crossbones

Design: Skull & Crossbones Artist: Eunice Moyle Inspiration: We were playing Ouija one night and the spirit told us that oui and ja both mean "yes." Creeeeepy. Who to send it to: A Jolly Roger, a femme fatale, or a slightly sinister sister. Ideas we scrapped in favor of this one: "We put the 'gal' in gallows humor." Actually, we're still working on that one. Favorite detail: We like how the different sized eyes make all the difference in the skulls' spookiness. Why letterpress? Because the spirit spelled it out for us. Oui. Ja. Yes. L-E-T-T-E-R-P-R-E-S-S. I swear, I wasn't pushing.

Don’t forget to post your comment and tune in next week, same time, different stationery, to see if you’ve won!

Now for this week’s spooky selection:

trick_or_treat

Design: Trick or Treat Artist: Lab Partners Inspiration:  A tiny town teeming with teeny trick-or-treaters was just too tempting not to attempt. Who to send it to: a petite pirate, a diminutive Dracula, a wee werewolf, a smallish skeleton or an itty-bitty kitty. Ideas we scrapped in favor of this one: We thought the college version, with kids dressed as showers, laundry baskets and zombie sorority girls was a little too hard to communicate at that scale. Favorite Detail: Who could name just one? But we delight in saying that there really is a devil in the details.

Now for this week's spooky selection:

Skeleton_Fiesta

Design: Skeleton Fiesta Artist: Eunice Moyle Inspiration: Cleaning a closet full of vintage souvenirs we found some spooky sugar skulls and thought we ought not just let our calaveras out of the closet, but give them maracas and let them party! Who to send it to: Any guy, ghoul or witch with whom you have a funny bone to pick. Ideas we scrapped in favor of this one: An archaeology-themed romantic Halloween card reading "I Dig Your Bones" gave us the shudders, and our "Happy Howl- a-Ween" card with an "Owl-len Ginsberg" cartoon reading from HOWL— never mind— forget we ever said that. Favorite detail: The fact that the itsy-bitsy spider is depicted with all 28375764 of its eyes makes us cringe with ghoulish glee. Why letterpress? Nothing else could quite capture all the crisply creepy detail.

Don’t forget to post your comment, and tune in next week, same time, different stationery, to see if you’ve won!
