We always feel honored whenever our name is featured throughout the growing realm of wedding magazines, blogs, and resource websites. We also love to cater to our community by offering one-on-one consultations with brides when making the big decision to buy wedding stationery. It truly is a joy to be listed in Brides Magazine as one of the "people and places you need to know to plan a wedding in San Francisco!"

The issue highlights all of the places throughout the city that offer helpful advice and inspiration for your wedding. Our beloved Faye even made her way into the spotlight!

Inside the studio with Anne Smith

When we pictured the workspace of the talented illustrator and our guest designer Anne Smith, we imagined a the kind of place that makes you feel inspired to create something beautiful. These pictures from Uppercase reveal exactly what we imagined, only better. From the colorful arrangements of fresh flowers to the towering collections of books, we're feeling quite at home in the studio of our dear friend Anne.

The launch of our Anne Smith wedding designs earlier this year brought a fresh new face to our collection, especially with her delicate watercolor illustrations and bright color palettes. We've received an outpour of enthusiasm for her designs such as Southern Belle and Wildflowers, and still gush over the nautical details in Cape Cod.

On Press: Dinosaurs--Printing and Scoring

Finally! This week our 'On Press' video shows Max in the final stages of this three part series chronicling the making of a letterpress greeting card. Here he's at his windmill printing and scoring Julia Rothman's "Dinosaurs" birthday card design. Scoring, also called creasing, helps prevent the paper from cracking, and it also makes the cards easier to fold.
