Start the presses! Split the fountain!
We decided to run a split fountain for Ajalon’s 2011 Thanksgiving greeting card!
A split fountain is achieved by using two inks (or more) in one letterpress fountain. The printer positions the inks perfectly to create a luxurious gradient within your letterpress wedding invitation.
This technique is perfect if you love the ombre trend as much as I do! Blending the inks within your letterpress wedding invitation adds a soft, romantic touch that a single color can’t match.
Take a look at the entire process on our Facebook page!
We also added edge painting to these double thick cards, as well as a vellum overlay. We’re so impressed by these holiday cards, we hope you are too!
