01. Print Methods
We've carefully built a list of printing partners who we know will bring our designs to life at the highest quality. We offer 4 different printing methods - Digital Color + White Flat Ink Printing, Thermography, Letterpress + Embossing, and Foiling. Here is a little info about each one to help you make your decision!
DIGITAL COLOR + WHITE INK
Flat digital color printing is the most basic printing method - ink saturated into the page but not pressed. Our printers utilize the latest technology to make sure every color and graphic on your pieces is rich and vibrant.
Price: $
Minimum Order: 10
Paper Suggestions/Limitations: Any stock or thickness will work. For full color designs, we recommend choosing a white/ivory stock. For white ink, we recommend darker stocks to provide enough contrast for legibility.
THERMOGRAPHY
A classic printing style, thermography is a cost effective alternative to engraving with the same benefit of raised lettering. Resin is heat-fused with wet ink, raising the design for a formal look.
Price: $
Minimum Order: 50
Paper Suggestions/Limitations: Smoother stocks work best to allow the raised texture to be seen. The paper color must be lighter than the ink color selected to be legible.
LETTERPRESS + EMBOSSING
Letterpress is a more complex printing method that involves pressing your design into a thick card stock (with or without ink). It provides tons of luxurious texture and levels up even the simplest design. Embossing is a similar look, but the design is pressed into the paper from behind (and usually without ink) to create a raised effect off the paper.
Price: $$
Minimum Order: 50
Paper Suggestions/Limitations: Softer, cotton-based stocks work best for a deep impression. A single ply (300gsm) will work, but we recommend going thicker for maximum 3D effect.
FOIL PRESS
Foiling is very similar to letterpress printing, but instead of using inks, your design is pressed into the paper with gorgeous, shiny foil using a hot plate. Not only do you get the embossed effect that letterpress delivers, but you also get a dreamy shine.
Price: $$$$
Minimum Order: 50
Paper Suggestions/Limitations: Just like letterpress, foiling can be done on 300gsm+ stocks, but the thicker the better, so we recommend going for double-thick paper (600gsm+). Due to the foil being completely opaque, it looks amazing on any color.
02. Paper & Envelope Colors
Our colored stocks are a minimum of 100# weight, and can all be duplexed or triplexed for maximum thickness. Most are available as envelopes with a pointed flap in standard sizes (A9, A7, A2, 4bar).
03. Letterpress, Thermography, and Digital Ink Colors
Select from any of our standard ink colors for your letterpress, thermography or digital ink designs. Custom colors and Pantone matches are also available.
04. Foil Swatches
Our standard shiny foil press options dress things up with a little shine. We also have matte options, as well as other colors available upon request.
05. Card Shapes
In addition to the traditional square and rectangle, we offer an array of unique shapes for most card sizes. Layer these shapes together to create a one-of-a-kind masterpiece.
