I have long been a huge fan of luxurious letter press stationery extraordinaires Bella Figura (it is hard to believe it has been a year, or more, since I introduced their lavish 2012 collection) I truly adore this little artisan letterpress shop – the love and passion they have put into perfecting their craft the old-fashioned way; the way they use antique cast-iron presses and the best paper (plus a lot of time and patience) to produce the highest quality letterpress printing, with the deepest, crispest impression. And they do it all, to create the dreamiest wedding stationery for your big day…..

This year Bella Figura have released 75 dazzling new designs to add to their collection of continuing wedding stationery suites, and they are seriously divine!

See what I mean? I think this may be Bella Figura‘s most delectable collection yet! And remember, each design is completely customisable –  with 50+ inks and 30+ fonts available, artwork in any design can be resized, rotated, patterned, and customised for you by ultra-responsive and experienced coordinators and designers who will help you to create your perfect wedding stationery.

As well as plenty of the pretty florals and beautiful calligraphy we have come to expect…..

There are also designs to capture key 2013 trends – and the heart of every bride & groom! Starting with my favourite trend…..’We’re predicting vintage weddings with elaborate 1920s elegance and Gatsby-like flair will reign in 2013.  If you’re dreaming of a glamorous look, metallic shades of gold, silver and copper will add the perfect touch of sophistication to any invitation.’

But if you’re not sure foil on your wedding invitations fits with your pretty vintage theme, then foil edging is a lovely subtle way to introduce another colour and a dash of shimmer!

Bella Figura have also  introduced more designs with localized touches (like epic city skylines)…..

……along with the sweetest new rustic designs, perfect for a barn or campground wedding with minimal, natural touches which I see only growing in popularity 2013 – with invitations like Imogene how can they not??

As well as new designs Bella Figura have added fabulous new die-cut shapes to their 2013 collection, along with customized bright and colourful envelope liners – allowing couples to express their personality and bring their wedding and their stationery suites together.

Each design offers a full wedding suite of pieces —letterpress save the dates, direction cards, reception cards, thank you cards, menus, place cards, coasters, programs, and more, and there is a 10% discount on your whole order when you buy 6 or more different suite elements at one time.

And (I couldn’t be more chuffed about this part) Bella Figura have asked yours truly to be a trendsetter!! Me?! I really am so excited! I had the pleasure of picking my favourite five to create a Sample Pack, which when you buy will save you 20%, as well as giving you samples to hold, feel and see up close, of the prettiest designs from their latest collection, with all proceeds from the sale going to charity!

Now it was no easy task narrowing down my faves to five, which would have made your trendsetter pack?
