It should be no surprise to you that follow/read my blog that I love letterpress. Like LOVE letterpress. My daydreams consists of new stationery concepts, when I'm shopping for fruits and veggies, I wonder "what color pantone is that?"
Coming from a pretty cut-throat corporate environment, it is a breath of fresh air to logon to Briarpress and be surrounded by like-minded artisans that do truly want to support each other for the sake of their craft. Case in point, Tim Butler from Quality Letterpress (who helped us get set up on our restored C&P) just completed the foil work and letterpress printing of my *beautiful* business cards! He hand-fed each card on theKluge that he foils on. Then double-sided letterpress on 220# pearl white Letra (the thick stuff).
On some of them, the sand dollar logo was blind-hit to imitate what it looks like in nature. And to give that "organic" feel, the corners were die-cut in 3/4" round.
I know I'm biased, but these calling cards were designed to show everything luxurious about letterpress printing, and with Tim's help, they did that and then some!
BTW, don't forget to enter into our Goodness Gracious Giveaway before Monday July 5th to win a set of letterpress thank you cards! I'll be throwing in a couple of these bad boys!
