Location: Knoxville, TN

We mix antique patterns, floral illustrations, a contemporary color palette and modern type sensibilities into our designs, creating a surprising blend of sophistication and whimsy.  We are best known for our "letterpress look with offset pricing" — We print each of our designs on a bright white, ultra-smooth paper stock which creates a rich sea of flat ink on each piece.

Your sources of design inspiration:
Colors that pop, rich imagery, bold typefaces, unusual form and shape... Anything that catches the eye may end up being the inspiration for a new design!

What is one thing that no one knows about you?:
Not many people know that I am secretly addicted to Christmas music. I keep a few CDs of traditional Christmas carols in my car year-round just so that I can pop one in and sing along to "Joy to the World" in July if I feel like it. The louder, the better! Why not have Christmas cheer in my heart every month of the year?
