Our fab customer @LFKitchen puts sustainability at the heart of everything they do. We chose a stock for these postcards that matched their ethos - 'Loop' is a carbon neutral brand, and their paper is 100% recycled. Artwork by the wonderful Frolic Design in Malvern!

We've had some fab projects through the doors this week including these flyers for MAPPA MUNDI, the latest production from @ThePowerhouseCo . It's an exploration of loss, memory & human connection and we can't wait to see it - tickets are still available!

Hooray! 🥳 We're delighted to have joined the Herefordshire Wildlife Trust as corporate members. The team can't wait to get stuck into some volunteering days, and to learn more about how we can have a positive impact on Herefordshire's environment.
A very warm welcome to @orphanspress who have joined us as corporate members. Read all about our partnership here herefordshirewt.org/news/orp…

Paint as beautiful as @EBnaturalpaint deserves a home that’s just as thoughtful. These sample pot stickers for our long-time clients Edward Bulmer Natural Paint are designed to show off the beautiful colours within - the shade shown here is ‘Rose’. Very fitting for Barbie day!

When @greendragonhfd asked us to include a map of Hereford in their guest newspaper, we jumped at the chance! Featuring some of the city's landmarks, we loved it so much we turned it into a poster which sits pride of place in the studio.

We had a fabulous morning with the Herefordshire Walking Festival, tracing the steps of Leominster's most prominent Quaker families. Thanks to Felicity Norman of Leominster Walkers are Welcome for leading such an interesting and informative stroll!

When @Royal_Sculptors were ready to open the doors to their historic HQ Dora House after a £1m restoration, we couldn't resist running with the concept for these invites. The gatefold design, made with a special cutter, was a beautiful way to celebrate the re-opening.

Top 10 English church doorways from my travels - a thread. 1. Church of St Mary and St David, Kilpeck, Herefordshire. A riot of Norman carving. Dragons, grotesques, angels, a phoenix, beakheads, a basilisk, a lion. A writhing phantasmagoria of the 12th century imagination:

Beautiful Hay on Wye, just down the road from our presses! We're counting down the days until the iconic #HayFestival2023 - who are you most looking forward to seeing at the festival this year?
Happy #HayonWye in #Powys, #Wales. Completed in 1835, pic 1 shows The Cheese Market which held a 🧀 market on the ground floor and an assembly room on the 1st floor used for hearings of the manorial court. The statue on the end depicts Henry VII the 1st Welsh ruler of England
