Moving away from letterpress for a moment we have a nicely designed business card utilizing varnish and foil stamping that looks like it has a nice texture to it. The subtle glossiness created by the varnish makes the black shine and the bright pink foil really pops without being too distracting. Plus, Plike is always a winner.
We sought to create a business card for the client that left a memorable impression, as well as something that referenced the nature of her photography: feminine sensuality with an edge.
