Our talented friends

We love great design and we love it even more when our friends are the ones to do it. We've known Susanne and Robert for a few years and were super excited when we heard they were getting hitched. Susanne is a baker extraordinaire (she happened to bake the cupcakes for my wedding - you can find her delicious baked goods here) and her soon-to-be hubby, Robert, actually helped us revamp Farewell's website. (A huge thank you to Robert - if you need an awesome developer go to this guy).

Susanne took her first stab at letterpressing a few weeks ago. After a few back and forth emails, a phone call or two and a pep talk from yours truly, Susanne tackled the letterpress like a pro. I had seen some of her initial designs on screen, but it was really fun to see them come to life when they arrived in the mail the other day. We think she did a great job and the color combinations of the deep purple and bright yellow are just so cute.

We have yet to hear how the actual printing experience was. We feel in love with it as soon as we touched a press, so we wonder if she had the same experience. Perhaps we may have a new intern on our hands soon?...
