We printed a ton of these amazing coaster last year and it’s not even humid here! If you want to take a few of them off my hands, shoot me an email with your mailing address.

The detail is pretty damn nice. For the front we started with a transparent tinted letterpress background floral pattern, then layered white gloss foil and then a metallic foil — color variable depending on the paper. For the back we used the same floral pattern plus a dark gray letterpress ink on 100% post consumer white folding board.

Oh, and the little chipboard packets are letterpresses as well.

Letterpress and sunshine! Spring in Portland is no joke — vibrant like just about no other place I’ve been. And there’s nothing better than natural light to bring out the texture of our work.

Above we’ve got black and tinted white letterpress on pillowy 2-ply Lettra paper for SF design firm BAMO. More carefully curated springtime/letterpress pairings below.

Oversized letterpress wedding invitations for Kiera and Patrick’s fall wedding in NYC. We pressed tined white and black inks on thick 600g Lettra paper. Blind letterpress is an option here too, but the tint really helps the detail pop on the paper.

These duplexed business cards were printed as part of a larger suite of collateral we worked on for the Hattiesburg landscapers at Shade. Everything was designed by Whitney Miracle, and she picked out an awesome combination of Kraft-Tone papers from French Paper Company along with platinum and pale green foils.

For the Portland-area phone lovers at PhoneLove we printed two-sided business cards on 600g Fluorescent White paper. Most featured purple on both sides, while select folks got a subtle tinted-white logo for a blind-deboss look.

We rounded out the set with some folded notes.

These cards, printed for Los Angeles cycling studio BESPOKE, are printed on thick 600g Fluorescent White paper with tinted white on the front and two inks on the back. We finished them with a bright orange-red to match the ink.
