Bright and Blingy for Dyfari Interiors
Over the past eight years, we’ve worked with Diane on baby shower invitations, thank you notes, and several rounds of business cards (see some here and here) for her business, Dyfari Interiors.

A Golden Hex
Bax’s cards presented a special challenge. Normally, to create an odd shape (basically anything non-rectangular), we’d make a die and die-cut the cards.

Recently they asked us to print simple blind-pressed, edge painted notes along with custom printed and converted envelopes. To get the pattern on the inside of the envelope (called a “tint”) we first offset printed flat sheets with…
