About the maker
Ladyfingers Letterpress
Award-winning Ladyfingers Letterpress is a Queer and Trans-owned-and-operated stationery and gift brand based in Colorado Springs, Colorado, founded by designer+printmaker couple, Arley Torsone and Morgan Calderini.
They launched their business in 2010 in Pawtucket, Rhode Island when their own wedding invitation went viral and they were faced with a wedding industry that wasn't prepared to work with a couple of creative Queers. While they suffered through both the aesthetic and LGBTQ+ injustices at the time, they realized there was a need for affirming stationers who gave a damn.
Ladyfingers, located in Colorado Springs, Colorado, is dedicated to selling greeting cards with messages that are inclusive to all types of people, families, and experiences. They have, for example, a queer collection with LGBT wedding and anniversary cards, as well as cards celebrating gender transitions, such as one that reads, “New Wardrobe. New Pronouns. New Name. And I Love You All The Same.”
Ladyfingers Letterpress believes that you don't have to be a large company to make a big impact. demitasse couldn't agree more! Here Here!
