The Valentina is has more whimsy of the three styles. The Valentina ( Double Sided / Single Sided) The Vagabond features a more bold, utilitarian letterform that's remenisent of the broad brushstrokes of classic signage lettering with a bit of its own flair. The Vagabond ( Double Sided / Single Sided) The Wayward's lettering style has a modern letterform that can come off as both fun and lighthearted while also elegant and proffessional. The Wayward ( Double Sided / Single Sided) We are offering three styles in both single and double sided versions over at Hoban Cards. A memorable mix of Letterpress printing and Calligraphy.

For each order, she letters your name by hand (we do not use a font for these) and then submits a high resolution scan. Her artwork looks stunning letterpress printed and makes for the perfect mix of elegance and uniqueness on a card. I'm especially excited for our recent collaboration with Sarah Barrett.

These simple 1 color double sided die cut letterpress printed tags we did for Surfdays are a great example of how coupling a minimal design with an interesting die shape can really make your piece both understated and unique.
