Letterpress Business Cards

LETTERPRESS PRINTING

  • Bespoke printing plates are pressed into the card stock to create a tactile print

  • ‘Blind’ or no ink letterpress is possible when the wording is pressed into the card without ink to create a deboss

  • All the text and content you provide will be printed by letterpress for completely bespoke business cards

  • Letterpress printing works beautifully with fine illustrations and fonts, giving a deep pillow deboss

  • Great on its own or when paired with foil printing

  • Letterpress inks are transparent, so the ink colour must be darker that the paper in order to be legible, or printed blind

  • Letterpress printing suits thick card best for a great texture. Opt for thick cotton stocks or our high weight recycled and UK made card
