It's a been a few months since we've shared a post about some of our recent work. We added some sneak peaks and images to our twitter account when we made these new items, but sometimes is not the most adequate forum to showcase the designs and process.
Posted below are some of our new cards and designs. Though we often look to designs for letterpress printing, we sometimes forget to acknowledge that screen printing doesn't stray far from ours hearts. And, if you are familiar with both screen printing and letterpress design, you can recognize some similarities in process despite using vastly difference equipment and producing very different aesthetics.
For some of our recent cards, we decided to hand silk screen them in limited numbers. The reason for this was that we got a hold of some glow in the dark paints, something you just can't seem to find for letterpress, and, you know, we just had to try them. So, our design and colour wizard, Shauna, had the awesome idea of using the glow inks as the base and mixing in some other colours. That way you get the hit of colour while maintaining that kid inspired happiness of still glowing in the dark!!
