PRINTING METHODS

Elegant baptism invitation card made with textured felt paper, deckle edges, and premium euro flap envelopes.

DIGITAL & WHITE INK

Also known as flat print. This is the most cost-efficient printing method. Digital printing smoothly leaves ink on paper without leaving any texture or indentation.

Digital printing takes 2-3 weeks after proofs are approved.

LETTERPRESS

Letterpress is made by pressing an inked photopolymer plate over paper to create a deep impression.

Letterpress takes 4-5 weeks after proofs are approved.

Elegant embossed bridal shower envelopes.

BLIND IMPRESSION

It involves the same process as letterpress, the only difference is that this one is made without ink, leaving a beautiful blind impression on the paper.

Blind impression takes 4-5 weeks after proofs are approved.

Elegant foil-pressed invitation suite.

FOIL

Similar to letterpress, foil printing uses a metal plate but instead of ink, it uses a foil sheet to leave a metallic finish. This also leaves a touchable impression.

Foil takes 4-5 weeks after proofs are approved.
