Top shop for gifts.
A buyer bought a gift from this shop and gave it a 5-star review!
Announcement
Welcome to Helen Edna! I design and letterpress print each card on my vintage Golding Pearl platen press.
I would be happy to write a handwritten message for you inside of the card if that is something that you would like. You can either message me before you purchase the card or write it in the notes at check out.
*Just a note that some orders have been arriving about a week longer than they normally do because of delays with USPS. I usually ship orders out the next day, so hopefully that will help offset the USPS delays.

5 out of 5 starsI shopped and shopped for sympathy cards, and then remembered the beautiful artwork of HelenEdna. The stationary I purchase here ALWAYS exceeds my expectations. From a simple thank you note, to my beautiful Christmas cards, I've never gone wrong. Thank you Lauren!

5 out of 5 starsI was wary about my item arriving bent or damp, but the seller took great care with packing. It’s in pristine condition, and arrived in a timely manner! Will definitely purchase from this shop again.

5 out of 5 starsI really like that I got to choose my own assortment. The cards I chose are the birthday-tree ring card and the heart love card. Both are lovely images on high quality card stock. Shipping was quick and the items were well-packaged.

About HelenEdna
-
I work with a Golding Improved Pearl No. 11 that’s from the early 1900’s. It’s fun to use!
-
I use a soy and linseed oil base inks from Austin, Texas.
-
I hand feed each piece of Crane Lettra paper (100 percent cotton) into the platten press.
-
The rollers transfer ink from the ink disc onto the polymer plate.
-
Here is the card after it has received the second ink color from the polymer plate.
My Story
Helen Edna is letterpress stationery studio that I started in the summer of 2018 in Dana Point, California. My designs are joyful, organic, and finely hand drawn with vibrant colors.
Helen Edna is named after my grandma who had a passion for craft and had a cheerful demeanor.
I worked as an architect for several years after studying it in college and realized that I really missed working with my hands.
I took printing lessons at the International Printing Museum in Carson and loved the process of printing my hand-drawn designs into cards. Shortly thereafter, I bought a Golding Pearl platen press and made a leap to start Helen Edna!
Thank you for your interest in my company!
Best,
Lauren
