custom orders | colour & ink choices

below is a list of options for isavirtue stationery. please email patience[at]isavirtue.net for more information or message me on etsy.

regarding paper options:
you may request a paper colour you see in the shop (i.e. mint, turquoise, eggplant, white, kraft) and i will advise on availability. you may also request colours that are not in the shop as i have those as well though not in bulk (i.e. orange, blue, red, green, yellow)

regarding ink options:
i use three types of inks - printed ink, stamped ink, and embossed ink.
printed inks are for cards and sometimes light coloured envelopes and writing paper. not all statements will be available for printing.
stamped inks are for light coloured envelopes, postcards, and writing paper.
embossed inks are for envelopes of all colours, journals and postcards. writing paper and seals cannot be embossed as they are too thin. **please note that I've tried to make the embossed ink images as true to the colours as possible but many of them are metallic and all of them are raised - so that interferes with the photograph. many embossed inks need to be  felt and seen in motion (moving a piece around in your hand) to grasp the actual colour and the way the light affects it. please also note that some embossed inks are betters than others (more raised, more vibrant - such as gold and white) and others are problematic (flatter, not as smooth - such as teal and mustard). i am happy to discuss this with you.

regarding text options (see below for a general list):
custom text of a reasonable length can be designed for a $5 additional fee. custom texts cannot be embossed unless you would like to pay for a stamp to be made and shipped (the stamp is yours to keep but brings an extra cost and time factor)
