a little goes a long way

In case you didn’t know, letterpress printing is a lot different than digital or offset. The more colors you use, the more expensive the job will be (each color requires its own plate and a separate run through the press). Here are a few recent 1 color projects that show you don’t need to fork over a fortune to get beautiful letterpress printed pieces.
Wedding invitations designed by the groom, Zac Brooks.
Simple stationery designed for a friend.
Thank you cards designed by Tracy of MadCow Designs.
these are so cushy and delicious.
i agree with the one-color statement. more colors does not necessarily mean better.
Thanks for the mention. It was a pleasure working with you and the pieces printed beautifully. I can’t wait for my next letterpress job with you!
