I feel like I’m trying to get back on a horse that I keep falling off, over and over. Get back on the horse, they said. The first time is easy, but man it gets harder and harder when you’re falling off and getting back on over and over. The injuries and bruises start to add up. The mental struggle of Covid, the lockdown, long Covid, and the depression and lack of motivation that followed is STILL kicking my ass. I’m a cat and always land on my feet, but good lord my feet are sore and tired. Looking forward to working on this project today so I can hold onto the sense of completion and accomplishment

I love these printed envelopes with artwork that wraps from front to back

A close up of our postage detail as I prep for calligraphy
Prepping postage - counting to make sure it’s all here, making sure they’re all the dimensions I thought they were (spiller alert: they’re not) and prepping my calligraphy template
Printed with pieces form their custom toile pattern, the numbers gilded by hand with gold leaf, the backs printed with their full toile pattern, and then die cut into ovals. Seriously stepping up our table number game
