In fact it refers to two lovely quotes we've been printing. These were bespoke pieces for a wedding.
The lovely bride, Cath, had the very sweet idea of gifting her Readers with letterpress prints of the pieces that they read in her ceremony. Nice, huh?
The pieces were relatively long, so we had to use photopolymer plates, and the fonts had to be pretty small to fit into the required frame area (10 x 15cm), but obviously fine detail work like this is where letterpress excels.
Cath selected the font Dakota Handwriting to give a friendly, relaxed vibe to the prints. I think it works really well.
The date and location of the wedding were blind debossed at the bottom right of each print.
For colours, we printed in copper and an inky blue.
I'm pleased to say the final prints were very well received.
Cath was even kind enough to send us photos of the framed copies.
Do drop us a line if you have any of your own bespoke letterpress projects in mind!
