feature fridays: kasey hamel wedding & event design

Posted by debbie lee on

as of late, i've been printing plenty of business cards... remember these "lucky in love" wedding invitations?  here are business cards for kasey hamel wedding & event in richmond, va.  although we've never met or spoken and live in different states, kasey and i have formed a sort of virtual business relationship... she'll design something for letterpress and i print and bring to life said lovely designs...

speaking of those "lucky in love" wedding invites... while on the phone with a bride recently, she asked,

"if i want letterpress postcard response cards, if they get wet, will they smudge or get destroyed?" my response, "good question" {as i was at a loss for words}.  how is that i never checked?  so i picked up an extra reply card i had and soaked it under running water.  literally.

oh, you don't believe me... here's another shot:

then i let the reply card dry.  get this:

no smudges.  no runny ink.  incredible {i know}.  the proof is in the pudding.  you're sold aren't you?! i know i am.  waterproof letterpress wedding invitations.  incredible.   have a great weekend!
