“Grosse Pointe is all about having your own style and identity,” explains Liz Denton, Owner and Graphic Designer of Print Xpress. Husband and partner Tim manages the operation. The result is a boutique design business with a Mom and Pop approach to customer service.
“I enjoy designing. I am the artsy person,” Liz explains. “There are so many small details and brands of paper with different weights, colors, and textures. We can help bring your ideas to life and design your stationery, business cards, and invitations with a color and look that is unique to you.” They provide design and print services for most of the neighboring businesses along Mack Avenue.
Liz and her team of five take pride in offering a personalized touch. She worked for the previous owners as a graphic designer and had the chance to learn the customer base and business from the ground up.“I enjoy the interactions with my customers,” Liz says. “I get to know them and love being able to help with their special announcements.”
The workspace is welcoming, with an open design area with a table loaded with sample books to spark ideas. Walls are hung with poster-sized renderings of digital photos and artwork. There are samples of gift items, including buttons, mugs, ornaments, and more.
Liz and her team of five produce a full suite of items for any occasion, even signage for the big day.
“If it can be printed on paper, I do it,” Liz says. Walk-ins welcome.

“Grosse Pointe is all about having your style and identity,” says Liz Denton. “We put the student’s personality on paper. It’s just wonderful to see the students and their personalities, hear what they say and think.”
Invitations should be sent four to six weeks in advance. The trend is for Open House, with half still requesting RSVPs. Thank you notes should be sent within seven to 10 days. Parents note: It’s never too soon to teach your children to write thank you notes.
