Description
Handcrafted BLANK INSIDE miniature note cards using graphics drawn from my extensive vintage collection printed on good thick GFSMith UK-sourced card stock.
Perfect for sticking to the front of wrapped presents, slipping inside a book or popping in a tiny envelope (included) and leaving with an enigmatic note for your loved one.
Need to know
Made by me in my Sydenham studio on a hand-operated 1950's Adana Printing Press using rubber-based inks from Lisa at Lyme Bay Press. I actually LOVE how this baby blue colour has come out - I added about 25% of white to blue and it is just perfect!
I love the slow process of creating these cards and the pleasure of each copy coming off the presses to be dried on a wooden rack.
Size = 100mm x 70mm with matching envelope. Blank inside for your AMAZING message.

My name is Simon Trewin, Founder and Chief Inkoholic. My prints, books and cards always start out with me scratching my head and thinking, “I wonder what would happen if I...." and then I am away!
Experimentation is at the heart of my practice - I love playing around with inks, vintage papers, wooden illustration blocks and historic metal type to a clanking soundtrack of my wonderful family of hand+foot operated presses. I also love classic typefaces, bold colours and an ever-present sense of how good prints can make a real instant impact. As you will see - I can rarely resist sprinkling a sense of humour in to the mix too!
Running through everything I do is my passion to help keep heritage crafts alive and to enjoy that sense of a historical connection to the printers, presses and ephemera that have come before me. I also truly believe in the benefits of slowing down, switching off and zoning into the deep focus that this process of discovery inspires in me.
In a world where everything is too fast, I enjoy nothing more than closing my studio door and diving into the rich and ever-rewarding world of letterpress printmaking.
