Design

Good Design – Done Simply

We’ve created a great standard range of single sided card designs, with a wide range of card stock options and ink colours, all printed on premium 540gsm or 600gsm board.

To view our additional custom options click on the Custom tab above.

Ink Colours

You can choose to have your Simply Letterpress cards printed in one or two of our Simply standard ink colours.

Letterpress printing is a “spot colour” process, every colour is printed separately – each requiring a pass through the press. We can mix a custom ink to match a Pantone reference or colour swatch on request.

Click the Inks tab to view our standard ink colour options.

Card Stock

Letterpress printing benefits from using the best quality card stock. Our standards for the Simply Letterpress range are 540gsm, or 600gsm premium heavyweight boards. All our card stocks provide a great quality feel in the hand, and allow us to maintain exceptional letterpress print quality.

For the Simply range we’ve restricted the colour options for the front (print side) to ensure good ink colour accuracy, however we’ve included over 30 stock colour options for the reverse of the card, and ink colours to match.

Our Simply stock options include 540gsm 100% recycled, 600gsm 100% cotton and 540gsm Colorplan from GF Smith.

Click the Card Stock tab to view the options, or if you’d like to receive samples of the Simply stock options please click here to order.

Typefaces

We’re very particular about type, and we’ve taken the time and care to select a range of typefaces for our Simply range that provide a broad variation of styles.

If you require more typeface options please view our Custom Design business cards, which offer a wide range of additional options.

Custom Letterpress Business Cards

When you want something entirely bespoke to you, we’ll create uniquely from concept to completion, work to a brief, or perhaps use your concept, existing artwork or logo. Letterpress printing rewards economy of design, our aim is similar throughout all our work – keep it simple.

Inks

Simply Inks

You can choose to have your Simply Letterpress cards printed in one or two of our Simply standard ink colours.

Letterpress printing is a “spot colour” process, this means that every colour is printed separately – each requiring a pass through the press.

Our standard ink colours are shown below, if you’d like a non-standard colour we can mix an ink to match a specific Pantone colour reference or colour swatch on request.

Card Stock

Two Colour Card Stock

You have the option to have the front and reverse of your cards different colours. We duplex two thinner card stocks to create the heavyweight final card, this offers a great design feature in lifting the look and appearance of your card to something very special – and it doesn’t cost a penny more.

If you select the 100% Cotton or 100% Recycled card stock, the Front (print) and Reverse will be the same colour. If you select any of the three Colorplan colour options for the Front, the Reverse can be chosen from any of the Colorplan card stock colours.

If you’d like to know more please view our Custom Design page. If you’d like to provide your own press ready artwork view our Press Ready Artwork Guide, which also offers some creative support with your business card designs.

Foil Colours

Foiling is the flashy cousin of letterpress, we use the same presses but instead of inks we use a pigment or metallic foil which reacts to pressure and heat. It’s not as versatile as letterpress but it has two strengths, the foil is opaque which means we can print on dark coloured board, and the metallic foils are a great way of adding some serious sparkle.

Our custom and bespoke include several foiling options, text, card edging and embossing. Foil colours are restricted in choice due to their nature, we provide a good selection as standard but can try to obtain a colour close to your needs if required. Please note the colours on screen are for guidance and will not be exact to the printed colour.
