Salutations, fellow print enthusiasts. This laser etched greeting card is a great way to say hello to anyone. it also makes great use of a material that is often neglected and discarded. This should inspire everyone to think of a new way to utilize that leftover paper or whatever from your last project and turn it into something great (and then send pictures so we can post them).
This is a greeting card that I designed to send out to friends, family and potential clients. The words came from all the different ways people have said hello to me throughout the years. Each of the words were laser etched onto pieces of old chipboard that had initially been used by printers to protect newly printed projects during shipping.
