Shadow-design Wedding Invitation

June 17, 2013

We printed this text-based invitation for a lovely client of ours. We adore the shadow effect created by the font and use of color. It's also really refreshing to see a design that fills the entire card. It's contemporary while also being extremely classy!Congratulations Lauren and Chang!

Father's Day

Show your dad how awesome you think he is with this card. It's almost like giving him a medal for services to fatherhood! We love the bright red and blue motif and the fun design.

A Very Brooklyn Wedding

May 19, 2013

We wanted to share some images of this really pretty invitation we printed for Chris and Roma. You may recall that a few months ago we printed business cards for Roma. We were lucky enough to also be asked to print their wedding invitations. Phew - they were pretty busy planning a wedding and a new business venture!A friend of theirs had done a wonderful illustration of some Brooklyn buildings and rooftops and Chris had incorporated this into his invitation design. Together with the couple, we decided to go for a small card rather than the standard 5" x 7" and I think the results were perfect:

New Bookmarks

Because we spend our days working on machinery from the 1880's we're a little romantic about real books with beautiful covers and crisp paper pages.  In honor of the old fashioned book, we've created a line of letterpress printed bookmarks.  We have seven designs, all inspired by belongings one might find on a bedside table (along with a good book).  We're particularly liking the perfume bottle and the mysterious glove...

Prospect Park Wedding Invitation

Justin Fines 1

As well as designing our own range of wedding invitations, we also really enjoy working with artists to help print their own designs. A little while ago, we heard from designer, Justin Fines. He had created a beautiful design for invitations for his upcoming wedding and he asked us to print them. We took a look and immediately swooned over his arts and crafts style invitation and RSVP. His designs were just right for the location of his wedding; The Prospect Park Boathouse!

Here's a close up to show the intricacy of the design. All of the detail was perfect for letterpress:

Square-format business cards

We've been enjoying printing some square-format business cards lately. A little while ago, we worked on some amazing fluorescent pink square cards for David Ceraso and we've just finished printing business cards for a newer client, Roma. She is starting a holistic personal training business and we worked from her own designs. When she came in to meet with us and discuss what kind of card stock she wanted, she saw a sample of a square card and immediately fell for it!

Good luck with the new business, Roma!
