Project Description
Letterpress business cards designed by Spacecamp Co. for Anchor Boutique in St. Augustine, Florida. Each card is letterpress printed, front and back, then watercolor is used to indicate the stone according to the month.Production Lesson(s)
The trick really is to not use too much water to warp the cards. The paper soaks up the watercolor well. Just be sure that the ink is dry first!
