For Shew Design’s upcoming happy hour event we wanted the invitations to be memorable. We chose to print three spot colors on Crane 100% cotton Lettra 110# coverstock – a very good first step. The large areas of solid color were a challenge on this textured stock, but in a world where four  color process printing overwhelms business printing, I think the deep impression and slightly irregular ink coverage were a nice contrast to the clean design.

What happy hour event would be complete without coasters? Running this Lettra 220# cover definitely pushes the limits of our Vandercook…but the results are so rewarding we just have to push every once in a while…and then speak a few soothing words to the press.

We do hope that the event on Thursday proves to be as fun as printing the above!
