paper & materials

A simple design can be greatly enhanced by incorporating additional design elements by way of paper/cardstock choice, envelope color & choice and adornments. You can see examples in our gallery of designs which have successfully done this.

PAPER STYLES

We use the finest quality papers for all of our printwork - silky linen cardstock, shimmery metallic cardstock and beautiful satin smooth cardstock for our offset & thermography/verco printing. We also use imported papers from around the world for adornment and for letterpress work. Some possibilities include:

• handmade papers infused with rose petals or silk flecks
• silky paper embossed with tiny cranes or elegant pinstripes
• paper that feels like velvet to touch
• vivid translucent papers
• translucent metallics
• corrugated card to represent the waves of the ocean
• thick deckled edge handmade papers from Italy (perfect for letterpress &engraving)

and so much more...the possibilities are endless!

OTHER MATERIALS

We also offer any type of adornment to complete your design, whether it is elegant satin ribbon, funky raffia tie, pretty glass beading or a delicate autumn leaf. Please ask us to suggest elements that will add a special touch to your creation.
