Letterpress

Dating back centuries, letterpress printing has seen a revival in an artisanal form.  It is a highly specialised technique of relief printing using a printing press.

Letterpress

Foil Blocking
Foil blocking is used to add a metallic effect to your cards; often gold or silver, but other colours are available. It can add a truly regal touch to your invitations.

Foil Blocking

Embossing
Embossing and debossing are used to create either raised or recessed relief images.  An embossed pattern is raised against the background, while a debossed pattern is sunken into the surface of the material.

Embossing

Spot UV Varnish
A special finish you can apply to specific areas of your invitation to make it shinier.  So, for example, you can apply the UV varnish to your logo, or perhaps some specific text to really make it pop.

Laser Cutting
Laser cutting is used to create or cut out intricate shapes and patterns on your invitations.  The laser cutter works by directing a high-powered laser beam very precisely at the chosen material to either etch the material or cut right through.

Lasercutting

Duplexing
Duplexing or triplexing refers to gluing two or three sheets together respectively. However, the process is not limited to this number of sheets and the possibilities are extensive. Colours, types and weights of materials can be combined to produce highly impressive results.
