Fake Problems / Ninja Gun split 7" for Sabot Productions
Jordan at Sabot asked me to design this split 7". After I designed it to be one color, metallic silver on black cardstock, I mentioned, "You know I can letterpress print this too". Two weeks later, 1000 custom designed, letterpress printed, die cut, folded and glued sleeves were born. |

Wedding Invitations
Here's a few wedding invitations I've been working on the past few months. I always try and wait till after the event to post pictures of the invitations. You know how those wedding crashers can be... |
The clients wanted something sophisticated and elegant that would compliment their oceanside wedding. Custom Designed, 2 colors printed on 110lb Bright White Crane's Lettra cardstock. |
 |
These clients (full disclosure: very good friends of mine) wanted something a bit less traditional letterpress printed looking. The grooms, "biggest fear was that they'd look too fancy". It's a custom designed, tri-fold invitation. 2 colors printed on Chartham Translucent cover stock. |
 
 |
These clients were some of the easiest, and most fun, from a letterpress perspective, to work with. They wanted to stay true to the letterpress process as much as possible. They came to the studio and rummaged through my dusty metal type cases with me until we found the Greetings Monotone that would work perfectly for their wedding at an Art Nouveau castle. The ornaments are vintage cuts I've acquired over the years. 2 colors printed on 100% cotton Ecru 110lb Crane's Lettra cardstock. |
