Project Description
We wanted a playful way to reach out to our clients and contacts with message options beyond the traditional "Thank You". So, we designed a suite of mix-and-match postcards suitable for almost any occasion. The embossed postcards feature eight hand drawn classic patterns (printed in five different colors) and twenty-eight hand drawn messages on tip-in stickers (printed in five different colors). That gives us 5,600 different postcard/sticker combinations!Production Lesson(s)
The postcards were first offset printed, then blind embossed on a letterpress. A tiny bit of paper stretching occurred during printing, which had our vendor chasing the registration around a bit but in the end, the outcome was fantastic.
