Check out these sweet Wedding Favor CDs!
The one in blue was designed by Austin, brother of the groom, with an intricate map of the world that wrapped all the way around the case. Austin asked for the plate, which he cut to unfolded case size and lovingly framed - an impressive and touching gift.
The CD case in red was designed by Monique, bride and graphic designer. I love the HOT chili stamp, perfect for letterpress. The couple are such ardent music fans that they filled 2 CDs full of music for each guest!
These cases also come in white recycled stock, which allows for more color options. Check out custom letterpress CD/DVD case pricing.

Parneet is the founder of SeedWalker, a digital strategy firm based in nyc and san francisco. She was looking for a logo redesign and a letterpress business card in leaf green and grey. We started with the nyc skyline, sent a couple of mock-ups back and forth, and came up with this design. I choose the font for the bold W that actually looks like it’s walking, and I love the crisp detail of the letterpressed nyc skyline. I love working with entrepreneurs and start-ups; a clean, eye-catching design and a distinctive letterpress business card can make a huge difference in defining your image and vision. Thanks Parneet, and I wish you much success!
check out these sweet pics of the kraft stock cd cases i printed for Vancouver designer Annie Chen of Lemonni. i love her identity and branding design for Hubert Kang Photography - the ink is color-matched to the fun striped photo cds, and the name on the cd case has a deep, crisp impression. also love the custom kraft circle stickers. photos courtesy of Annie Chen.
that’s me at the letterpress! thanks to anna wu for the excellent photo spread on her blog - check it out for more pics from the studio. i printed business cards and stationery for her that feature a blind (no-ink) layer of leaves and anna’s logo in turquoise. always fun to work with fellow independent artists!

kraft stock business cards and evolution of a logo
yes! custom invitations for a rustic seaside English wedding.
like the happy couple, these custom invitations are fun, bright, casual, and earthy. thick recycled kraft stock takes letterpress impression perfectly, and the simple vintage font and blob of yellow convey the couple’s plans for a frolicking week-long wedding holiday.
elegant initials make for elegant stationery. the folding note card come in an extraordinarily thick 100% cotton that feels luxurious and takes blind impression beautifully. matching flat cards allow for a quick note for any occasion.
