Project Description
Every designer needs a break from his/her hectic schedule to slow down and create something fun. As an in-house side project, we created this set of valentines for those who want to let that special someone in their life know how they feel (in a not-so-serious way). Using a mixture of vintage and modern elements, these cards are perfect for lovers of type and letterpress. The cards are sold individually or as a set of three.Production Lesson(s)
In order to be able to sell the valentines both individually and as a set, we created separate plates for each designs that can be locked together on the press. This gave us the freedom to print all three together, or each one separately.
