Top 10: Holiday Letterpress Card Companies

We've really gotten into sending beautiful letterpress cards in the past few years. It seems that the more things get digital, the more you need a really sweet hand-made and hand-written note to balance the system. We got these sources from digging around, but primarily from asking Carrie, who blogs over at Ohdeedoh and has just a great eye. Feel free to add, subtract or comment below...

In NYC Greenwich Letterpress on christopher btwn 6th and 7th ave is an amazing place for cards they always have one that jumps out at you. Many of them would make great framed prints.

YeeHaw Industries in Knoxville, TN, is one of my favorites, and not just 'cause I'm a "Knoxville girl." www.yeehawindustries.com

I did, Susan. My name is Shawn Laughlin, and that was for Eloquent Ink, a company I started and designed all the products for until last January. Now you can find my new products at my new company, www.caskata.com.

I, too, am looking for the "Cheer" card shown above.
But YeeHaw says it's not theirs. Can anyone help?

Cute! There is also a little letterpress company called letterkissed (http://www.letterkissed.com) that I'm obsessed with! I have not seen that they have a Holiday line, but I know they do some custom letterpress stuff.
