Can letterpress stationery be customized?

Yes! Fonts, ink colors, text placement, layout, and minor changes to design elements can be changed.

Is there anything I cannot customize on my letterpress stationery?

Due to the antique printing method used to create letterpress designs, there are some changes that cannot be accommodated. No more than two colors for 4.25” x 5.5” cards and three colors for 5” x 7” cards can be added, and we cannot change the paper color or silhouette shape. Artwork can be added, but it must be line drawn and cannot include watercolors, paint strokes, or swaths of color.

What is Custom Foil Text and what changes can be added with it?

Custom Foil Text allows you to add foil to the front of many designs. It can be used for any text and even some design details like borders or symbols. It also allows you to modify existing foil elements. Custom Foil must be enabled to make any changes to foil-pressed elements. Note: Custom Foil Text cannot be applied to the back of the stationery.

Do you offer custom sizes and shapes?

We offer a range of shapes, formats, and sizes for most of our products. We are unable to accommodate requests for custom shapes and sizes.

Can I customize the envelope colors or printed addressing designs?

While we offer a selection of beautiful envelope colors, we are unable to accommodate custom colors. Our printed addressing designs cannot be customized in any way, as they are pre-approved by USPS.
