I have a quick question: your last update on the L Letterpress (in August) said “…we are going to offer a custom program that will be announced very soon! This will allow you to create your own words, phrases designs etc.”

Has this been announced yet? Do we know any more on this custom program? I think I will only buy the L Letterpress if this exists and I can print my own printing plates somehow… I would like to be able to pick my own font and have the entire invitation letterpressed!

Thanks!

Amanda,

The starter kit ($69.99) has:

* Letterpress Tool {you’ll need to get a die cutting machine to use the letterpress tool}

* Clear Packing Mat with grid

* Paper Placement Guides

* Ink Base

* Brayer

* Ten A2 flat cards

* Nine Printing Plates

* Tube of Black Ink

The combo kit ($149.99):

* Epic Six Letterpress and Die-cutting Tool

* Letterpress

* Clear Packing Mat with Grid

* Paper Placement Guides

* Ink Base

* Brayer

* Ten A2 flat cards

* Nine Printing Plates

* Tube of Black Ink

* Circle Cutting Dies

If you want to add designs and letters, you’ll need to buy more printing plates. I’m only seeing two styles of alphabets: http://lifestylecrafts.com/products/everyday/everydayplates.aspx

I’m so excited! I totally want this and want to make my own invitations. But in order to make my own loved letterpress invites, I got a few questions….

How can I get my name and my husband’s name on the invitations? What about the date, time, location, etc.?

I need to be able to personalize my invites (yeah big shocker!).

Does this stuff come with the kit?

Thanks so much for the blog and keep up the excellent work.
