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.
Where is the "cheer" one from?
YeeHaw Industries in Knoxville, TN, is one of my favorites, and not just 'cause I'm a "Knoxville girl." www.yeehawindustries.com
Sesame Letterpress, Brooklyn, NY
www.SesameLetterpress.com
can you tell me who created the "tree" card above? susan
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?
Hi. I am a letterpess fan and am finally chiming in on the convo. Love the modern designs on this list. I also just found some funky, cute designs on a new site called spiffypress.com. fyi.
I'm also wondering where the Cheer card came from. Sources please.
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.
Greenwich Letterpress in Manhattan not only sells their own very cool line of cards but showcases many smaller presses from around the country
They just opened an e-commerce site at www.greenwichletterpress.com
I recommend them
A lot of these links don't work...
