Black Beauty
22 Jan
A designer asked me this week if we could print silver onto black stock (he’s been throwing around ideas for super special business cards)… I remembered that I had a tube of lovely Charbonnel silver ink in my cupboard (we usually print using vegetable or soy-based inks) so I dug it out, and the test kitchen fired into action. Here are the results – wee black beauties, I think! The stock is a whopping 650gsm, so lends itself to printing (or blind debossing) on the reverse if that is your whim… tricky beasts to photograph, but you’ll get the idea.


That is gorgeous, would love to see it for real!
