Business Cards for Silvergrin and Sespe Creek Distilleries
Foil and letterpress business cards for Silvergrin Vodka

The first of two business cards we printed for clients of the incomparable designer Chad Makerson Micheal. This one’s kinda nuts: A duplexed card with three letterpress inks plus sliver foil on the front, three letterpress inks on the back, glued and die-cut. Super tight registration on the inks and foil all around.

This next one for Sespe Creek is another duplexed card with three letterpress inks both front and back. Such an awesome level of detail in Chad’s designs — perfect for letterpress printing.

Embossed & Letterpressed Business Cards

Embossed and duplexed business cards for Portland’s Wildwood House!

If you’re printing a two-sided business card and you don’t want to see the reverse of your embossed image on the back of the piece, we can duplex two sheets after embossing to hide the embossing. For this set, we embossed 350g Colorplan Pistachio, printed black letterpress on 300g Lettra Fluorescent White, glued the two together, and then die-cut to finish the card.

It’s also a good idea to die-cut an embossed & duplexed card rather than trim it on a standard guillotine cutter. That way the emboss doesn’t get mashed by the cutter clamp.
