Last fall I had the opportunity to work with super-talented interior and fashion stylist, Erin of Erin Gates Design. Her blog, Elements of Style, is one of my daily must-reads, and I was so excited when she asked me to print her business cards, designed by Jessica Sutton.
The cards were letterpress printed in three colors on thick 220 lb. cotton paper then edge painted in a shimmery gold. They are SO pretty in person!

Wow, these are certainly thick. The design is simple yet elegant. What is the actual size of these items? I bet they would fit in my wallet. =)

Hi Sarah! I'm wondering if the edges were done with foil or paint . . . would you mind sharing? I'm a designer and am trying to decide on one or the other for a client right now. Thanks so much!

Aside from being thick, the embossed design is appealing. That gold lining made it very elegant, very unique among all the cards I’ve seen! Can I have some of those? =)

My sister-in-law, Debra, recently had her MFA thesis exhibit at CalState LA entitled C.A.N.D.I.E.D (Contemporary Agricultural Nanotechnologies Delivering Internal & Environmental Detriment). . . .
