Featured Project: Tracy's 40th Birthday Invitations

Posted by ashley mcneill on

As you know, inviting is not set up for foil stamping. If we had a second press, sure, but with only Vera... I'm not going to go back and forth with the set up. (I'm looking into tabletop options, but nothing just yet.) So, when your client's client is set on gold foil stamping and letterpress printing, if your designer client can hire one of her other preferred vendors to get the project started...

... we'll come in with the letterpress printing and edge painting to finish it off. And they look fantastic! We used our new neon pink ink (love!) and added a dab or two of another red to darken it to better match the pre-printed addresses on the envelopes.

Then we mixed a pink and a purple for the edge painting.
