A#1FAV Valentine's Day Design

There are so many terrible Valentine's Day cards and crap out there, so when I see the good ish, I get flutters in the heart. I made my cards this year at the Design*Sponge Valentine's crafting brunch, but besides handmades, here are some of my favs this year.

I love me some Hungry Workshop. We saw what they did for the winter holidays and they followed it up with some more fab for the holiday of love.

Love Letters win the battle for me. I bought these darlings before they sold out.  This box set of 7 letterpress printed coasters was printed by Mama Sauce. All the monies goes directly to the Hamilton Wood Type & Print Museum. 

Designed by a an amazing group: A: Fuzzco / E: Justin Mezzell / I: Aaron Draplin / O: Dana Tanamachi / U: Jon Contino / &: Jessica Hische / Y: Ross Moody, I'm so stoked I snatched 'em up!

I leave you with Paperman. Get your tissues out before you hit play.

Holiday 2012 / The Hungry Workshop Holiday Cards

Keeping with the holiday spirit, you have to check out the holiday cards by The Hungry Workshop. Simon and Jenna Hipgrave are masterminds when it comes to design and letterpress. Their "enthusiasm for the craft of letterpress combined with our expertise and love of design, typography and illustration ensures that every project, big and small, is imbued with heart and soul."

You can purchase these amazing cards online as a set or individually.

Follow them on Instagram. Its fun. They're fun. Fun all around. My dream job you ask? Well, other than being a blogger and sharing with ya'll all day and night, working for The Hungry Workshop. As much as I love the interwebs, nothing beats the feel of a letter press card. NOTHING.

And lets be honest, anyone that can make "Merry Fucking Christmas" look this good is someone I want to hangout with.

Have you seen any cards this year that blow your mind like these? Ga'head, try to top 'em, you won't be able to!
