Project Description
Mirror shining gold: that is what people are mostly expecting from gold ink printing, but printing with metallic gold on pure cotton paper ink looks matte, like dirty yellow/green color ink and it doesn't shine at all. But we love such vintage looking gold print works! The designer of these wedding invitations has done a great job perfectly matching colors and thin line art accents which create a royal looking view.Production Lesson(s)
Paper sheet changes dimensions after printing with deep impression and there is always big challenge when thin details requires to print precisely registered after first ink applied with deep impression.
