Nice simple but bold hang tags and business cards for Quesada. The business card is thick 600g Lettra paper with black letterpress. For the tag, we printed gold shine foil on 350g Colorplan Mid Green and finished with a brass eyelet.

The first of two business cards we printed for clients of the incomparable designer Chad Makerson Micheal. This one’s kinda nuts: A duplexed card with three letterpress inks plus sliver foil on the front, three letterpress inks on the back, glued and die-cut. Super tight registration on the inks and foil all around.

This next one for Sespe Creek is another duplexed card with three letterpress inks both front and back. Such an awesome level of detail in Chad’s designs — perfect for letterpress printing.

Embossed and duplexed business cards for Portland’s Wildwood House!
If you’re printing a two-sided business card and you don’t want to see the reverse of your embossed image on the back of the piece, we can duplex two sheets after embossing to hide the embossing. For this set, we embossed 350g Colorplan Pistachio, printed black letterpress on 300g Lettra Fluorescent White, glued the two together, and then die-cut to finish the card.
It’s also a good idea to die-cut an embossed & duplexed card rather than trim it on a standard guillotine cutter. That way the emboss doesn’t get mashed by the cutter clamp.

We’ve printed cards for the friendly folks at Empress a few times now. This time around, we helped develop a new design with artwork based on Emily’s tattoo, thick duplexed paper, and gold edge paint.

One of the nicest fake products we’ve ever designed! We created this label to help illustrate our new line of Letterpress Labels & Tags.
We printed this one with pale yellow and black inks on Pearl White cotton paper, then added peel-and-stick adhesive and a custom die cut.

Simple but effective! These are two-sided cards on thick cotton paper — we’d show you the back but the client wants their details secret. Use your imagination.
