Soft and playful, these cards were a sleek design for a stylist friend. Minimal to be sure, but the monogram really pops up out of the debossed gray around it.
Ruby has been super busy moving this fun collection of shirts, so we put up a little display here at the shop for First Friday crowds. Designed and printed here at the shop.
Tiny Inserts for Microtops, a local artisanal top maker. Front and back shown here.
Guillotine Street Wear – Suede Cards & Silkscreen Tanks
Guillotine is a new line of street wear styles in a collaboration between designers Arrias Dawkins and Sam Smalls, these snapshots are only a peek at what is coming so check back for more great stuff from this collaboration.
The red and black backs you see here are actually suede, laminated onto letterpress printed paper. The printing and edging feature a metallic gold with deep emboss, raising the black paper in the artwork. These are probably my new favorite cards, design from Sam Smalls.
Two color silkscreen tank tops here, with more designs on the way.
Orchid Loft
This shop is another great Crossroads gem on 18th street, pretty classic and simple little design in one color, letterpress printed.
Blue Collar Branding and Business Cards
Quick turnaround on these, but a very happy client indeed! The use of halftones is a fun addition here and I very much look forward to doing more of this.Col
Loose leaf letterpress note sheets, onion skin opacity with vertical accents.
I designed a scoring setup that allows for really efficient packaging, whether the project is a run of business cards or even a wedding suite as seen here.
The vertical accents continue on these gold business cards.
The Fleet App
This was a real trick taking a five color design and running it in three, a feat that saved the client some dough, I should add. Printed on a heavy weight cotton stock, you’ll notice the impression before the card is in your hands!
This was a process shot to illustrate how the colors were laid over one another, along with the basic layout of the name and contact info. Again, the impression is featured prominently in the raised type in the red layer.
Letterpress printed on a thinner cover stock, the black is printed on white to raise the type and cars above the surface of the paper.
Paul Shwabb – Memorial Illustration
Sadly, my friend’s dad passed away last fall but in producing these letterpress programs for his memorial, we got to capture a part of his story adapting an old photo into a lovely edition of drawings. The illustration work was done here, along with the printing on a soft cotton paper.
Printing with Birdies
The fine folks at Birdies have been keeping the presses humming recently, as they gear up for the Valentine’s Day holiday. Artist Peregrine Honig has come up with some great designs for the Fahrenheit Valentine Ball, shown in print below, in addition to a limited edition run of letterpress Valentines on sale now at Lindquist Press (2016 Baltimore) and Birdies Panties (116 W 18th St) here in the Crossroads Art District, KCMO.
- A short run, but oh so much fun! The gold shown here is extra thick for a luster my camera can’t quite match. These are to be trimmed out and hung around town, so keep your eyes peeled if you’re looking to grab one!
Many of you have likely been enjoying Peregrine’s unique designs around town, and here’s your opportunity to give a limited edition letterpress card this valentine’s season. Available now for $10 at Birdies or here at the shop, email LindquistPrints@gmail.com to get yours!
Letterpress and silkscreen printed, these tickets for the Fahrenheit Valentine Ball are on sale now at Birdies on 18th st., hope you can make it as these parties have always been a fun way to celebrate the holiday!
Silkscreen printed on Kraft bags, Birdies is always changing up their artwork for a fresh new look! We print these pretty regularly, so patrons always have a fun surprise with their orders.
