Holiday Cards
Happy Holidays from Swayspace! In preparation/celebration/anticipation of the holiday season, we've been printing some holiday themed stationery to be sold at the Makers Market here at the OAC Factory on Sundays.
Taking Care of Business Cards
Having been the ironic printers without business cards for some time, it's incredibly exciting to finally have fresh sets in our hands. It was a long process of Patrick doing several designs and everyone voting on their favorites. We finally settled on a design and what followed was another long process of printing. We really went to town doing them in 4 colors. We did 3 main color changes, along with some miscellaneous trials to essentially print over a dozen colors.
what follows are various shots of the month long process:

Rainbow Roll
Patrick has been designing business cards for kids so parents can set up play-dates. It's part of a new business card system we're starting with pre-made designs and colors (shoot us and email: studio@swayspace.com if you're interested). Of course, for kid-business cards, you gotta break out the rainbow roll:
Makers Market Cards
A quick hand-set type project for The Market that we've been peddling our stationary at on Sundays. (This is what we pulled those fonts out for)
We're also starting an exploration in printing business cards with the metal type for smaller business card runs that'd be a little more cost effective if you're just interested in some nice letterpress cards done in the metal fonts that we've got handy. Drop us a note (studio@swayspace.com) if you're interested in learning more!
