Sweetest Notecards from Salt & Syrup

Salt & Syrup was started by Emily Ranneby, an American illustrator and designer living in Stockholm, Sweden. Emily is a newcomer to the stationery market, but seems to be rolling on strong momentum as her work is popping up on blogs and in magazines. Her letter-pressed cards are mini art pieces and would fit in a frame as easily as they do envelopes. In her debut collection Emily combines images of wildlife creatures and each card features an unexpected combination of the subject’s name in Swedish, French, and English. This unexpected grouping adds another level of distinctive flair to each set.

Salt & Syrup cards are appealing to both children and adults with their use of bright colors. From Emily’s site: “Dedicated to concocting vibrant and deliciously unexpected combinations that simply work, we get great satisfaction from things like combining modern, scandinavian designs with old fashioned, hands-on printing techniques. plus, we’re crazy about all those little details that make things come together. like the texture of fine quality paper.”

Salt & Syrup seem to be on their way to big things with collaborations in the works and the collection making its way into retail stores this year. With Emily’s illustrative talents I’m sure fun new items will be rolling out soon. While your waiting keep in mind that the studio also does custom work from wedding stationery to everyday occasions. I’ll bet that with there international surroundings it adds a wonderful bit of flavor to all her creations.
