Avalisa

avalisa’s mission is to help others experience life more fully through color and design.

Lisa Masterson, avalisa designer/CEO, designs with the intention of having people enjoy life through their surroundings. This was an unsaid lesson from Lisa’s greatest creative influence, Aulikki Olsen, her Finnish grandmother. Because of Aulikki’s inspiration, Lisa’s designs capture a simple, natural and modern feel that seems to leave an impression on anyone who comes into contact with her work.

Lisa studied fine arts on the Northshore of Boston and has lived in Ethiopia and on Martha’s Vineyard. She currently resides in Indianapolis with her husband James, 2 year old daughter Elle and black Lab Izo.

Egg Press

When Egg Press founder Tess Darrow’s cards made a splash at a spontaneously attended trade show, she knew she was onto something. A printing class in 1994 gave Darrow the letterpress bug, and by 1999 the bug became a business: Darrow leaped from textile designer to greeting card impresario.

Egg Press cards, handcrafted in Portland, Oregon on antique presses, deftly combine elements old and new. Vibrant geometric patterns or sweet, clean-edged animal designs mingle with delicate, unique colors. Tess Darrow is now joined by long-time Egg Presser, Kara Yanagawa, in the creative pursuit at Egg Press.
