This morning we are setting up the press to print some letterpress business cards, a single black ink both sides.

A fresh tympan on the platen with just the right amount of packing for a crisp impression into the paper, in this case we are using Colorplan Pristine White. Once we are happy with the density of the ink, impression and registration we run the press sheets.

Adding tinted ink to a blind deboss can be a subtle yet impactful way to enhance the visual appeal of your design.

In this case, we used a warm orange tint on a textured cotton paper stock. The heavy impression also flattens the texture of the paper, creating a unique contrast. As the ink is pushed into the fibres of the paper, the texture is diminished, resulting in a flattened surface making it visually compelling.

This technique allows for a delicate balance between the texture of the paper and colour, as the debossed elements add depth and dimension, while the tint adds a touch of vibrancy and enhances the design.

Whether it’s a gentle pastel hue or a bold and vibrant shade, adding a tint to a blind deboss can elevate the overall aesthetic of a design, adding a hint of sophistication and uniqueness to the printed piece.

Letterpress RSVP’s with a retro design bring nostalgia to any event.

When it comes to event invitations, we often find ourselves searching for something extraordinary, something that will transport our guests to a different time and evoke a sense of nostalgia.

In an era dominated by digital communication, there is an art form that stands out for its ability to create a truly unique and captivating experience - letterpress printing.

One particularly enchanting application of letterpress printing is found in these three colour letterpress RSVPs. They not only serve their functional purpose but also become cherished mementos, capturing the spirit of a bygone era and infusing any event with a touch of nostalgia.
