Why not have it all!

 

Envelopments® stock and Midori Ribbon create a beautiful combination!

Most of the designs I create for clients involve pocket fold invitations, however I think options are wonderful!  This invitation is a great alternative to a pocket fold.  It saves on cost without sacrificing design and your insert cards are held together just as neatly as they would be in a pocket fold.  With this invitations there's no need to sacrifice style or functionality for budget.

Hiccups and Headaches: Holiday Cards on the Showcard Press

I've finished my first set of letterpress holiday cards using the Showcard Press!!! As I expected there were some hiccups and headaches along the way. Initially I though the most difficult part of the printing process would be the registration, boy was I wrong. The most difficult part for me, was the mixing of the ink and consistent inking of the plate (some times there's too much ink and other times not enough). I haven't figured out how to solve the issue of inking the plate, but for mixing I think I may try using opaque white instead of transparent white for my lighter colours. If anyone has suggestions please let me know.
