Letterpress me.

I have been going crazy the last few weeks trying to figure out what to do for my personal business cards. I have to say that Beast Pieces (the letterpress blog for Studio on Fire) is so not helping.

Check out this amazing project. The neon ink is so great.





The other day I also fell in love with this project, where they experimented with flooding ink. Some may prefer a uniform fill, but I think the unique quality of each card is awesome.






There is also a blog called FPO, which is cool because it shows the production costs of all the projects. I'm liking the idea below, which is created with a single color screen print, yet made more interesting with the use of spray paint and nice stock.




It's a challenge to design something special and memorable around a student budget, but quite an accomplishment when achieved.
