I stumbled upon this today whilst browsing the endless caverns of the interwebz. It’s a good mantra that everyone can benefit from. Check out Anthony’s site for more prints.

Today Right now swing on by Tattooed Moms on south street and check out Letterpress For Lovers A valentine’s card making workshop and sale.

We’re proud to announce Letterpress For Lovers! What the heck is that, you ask? Here’s the deal. We’ll be packing up our letterpress-printed goods and bringing them out along with a whole bunch of great new Valentine’s Day themed cards. Some traditional, and some… not so much. But that’s not at all!

In addition, we’ll be setting up our trusty tabletop Kelsey letterpress and a collection of old wood type for you to print with! We’ll have some specially designed Valentine’s cards that you can customize with the name of your choosing. Then you can go ahead and print the card yourself. Cool, right!?

The event is FREE to attend. We’ll be selling our cards, books, coasters, bookmarks and prints in addition to the new DIY Valentine’s cards.

And for cryin’ out loud, don’t be caught buying a lame drugstore card for the object of your affections.

Featuring the epic graffiti art of SOUTH FELLINI, those comic book guys, doing their Sailor Jerry-inspired geek designs.
This event will also feature MIKE VIVAS spinning the 1′s and 2′s and DRINK SPECIALS!

Two Paperdolls will commemorate the First Ladies of the United States with an original series of letterpress posters, designed and printed exclusively for the occasion. The exhibition will also showcase a working Chandler & Price Platen press from the early 1900’s, which will be used in workshops throughout the month.
