Bluerose Design Expands Stationery Line

Announces New Boxed Sets of Invitations and Note Cards

September 21, 2004 -- Bluerose Design, a New York City manufacturer of graceful handcrafted stationery, announced today that it has expanded its line of handmade everyday and seasonal holiday greeting cards (some available in Spanish) to include Party Invitations and Thank You Note Cards.

All Invitations (available as imprintables and fill-ins) and Note Cards are made to order and printed on quality white linen 80 lb card stock with accents of a touch of glitter, and in some cases, a special ribbon, to make them shine. Along with coordinating linen envelopes, they come packaged in a handy vinyl wallet, which is tied with a delicate white ric rac ribbon.

We feel that charm and whimsy of our designs translate beautifully into Invitations and Note Cards, said Cindy Krikawa, co-proprietor of Bluerose Design. The subtle textures expressed in our pencil and watercolor illustrations combined with the texture of the linen paper and hand-applied glitter give the cards an added dimension that makes them special.

Bluerose Design launched its business in 2003, and incorporates the fresh and pretty design sensibility expressed in its graceful illustrations into a select group of products with an eye towards fine detail and an emphasis on the highest quality. A love of vintage charm combined with floral themes provides the inspiration behind the Bluerose Design aesthetic.

Some of the upscale retail shops currently carrying its collections include: Kates Paperie (NY & CT), Kensington Paper (NY), Farfetched (NY), Tinsel Trading Company (NY), Flights of Fancy (NY), Paper Access (NY), Venture Stationers (NY), and Paper Tree (WA).

An online catalog of Bluerose Design products is available for viewing and wholesale orders at www.bluerosedesign.com. A complete price sheet is available to retailers.
