Your Local Ann Arbor, Michigan Letterpress Print Studio
Betzer & Head Creative Studio has been printing custom letterpress wedding invitations and paper goods right here in Ann Arbor, Michigan since 2022. I’m Sara Betzer-Head, the artist and printer behind the studio.
Letterpress printing brings the personal back into art and design. Each of my pieces is designed by me personally and printed one at a time, by hand, in my Ann Arbor studio. I’m able to take your story and run with it to make a bespoke work of art for you. Letterpress printing means ink applied directly to a printing plate on an antique machine and pressed into paper to create a tactile impression.
Custom Letterpress Wedding Invitations
I work directly with every couple to get to know your unique love story and wedding vision to create fully custom wedding invitations and stationery suites. Hand-illustrated, with a romantic and vintage flair and fine-art inspired details are my bread and butter.
Letterpress Business Cards
Not everyone is familiar with letterpress, but everyone who picks up one of my business cards printed on handmade, natural deckle-edge paper and blind-debossed with hand-drawn illustrations takes notice of how special they are. From touch alone you can tell they are not your run-of-the-mill business cards. They are a wallet-sized work of art, perfect for those who want to express an eye for beauty and design on a first impression.
