Dempsey & Carroll has just launched a new line of papers, and it’s just the thing for those of us suffering from too much winter! When I received the e-mail announcing this new line, I was transported from the chilly and windy, but sunny day in my office to a warm spring afternoon in a garden.
The line was commissioned by Mark Ingram, the owner of Mark Ingram Atelier, a high-end bridal shop in New York and Sara Singh did the artwork.These are little watercolour works of art, with wonderful soft spring shades, overlaid with gold accents. It is a testament to Dempsey & Carroll’s expertise to be able to print these cards with their layers of colour, and mixture of hand-engraving and flat-printing on white, 100% cotton paper. The detail extends to the hand-painted beveled edges and the hand-lined envelopes.
I think that opening an envelope with one of these cards inside would be your first clue that it’s going to be a fantastic event!
Those are gorgeous! Thanks for sharing! xo, N.G.

There's such depth to them.
DeleteThese are very striking. I may just have to get some :-)
ReplyDeleteIt's such a shame that Downes, the good stationery place in Baltimore just closed. But I heard something else just opened in Ruxton.
DeleteMeg have you seen the Grit Questionaire?
ReplyDeleteI know what GRITS is, but haven't seen the questionnaire. Do send a link!
