Time flies so fast! It seems like only yesterday i was creating the floral mood board for June, but now here i am with the seaside mood board for July! Be it as it may, i’m still extremely excited for my upcoming summer holiday. It’s getting nearer and nearer! So as we’re preparing and making plans for our holiday in the sunny Greece, it was necessary to put together some inspirational mood boards of sandy beaches and crystal blue waters!

Getting back to reality just a tick, we’re still working hard for both our letterpress printing shop and our boxes and packaging one. I’ll soon give some updates on some other successfully completed letterpress projects as well as the current ones we’re working on. Also, i’ll be praying to the photography gods to help me take some good photos of the bunch of new boxes we got. In the mean time, don’t forget about our Christmas in July Free Shipping letterpress offer! Take this opportunity to stock up on your letterpress printed stationery no matter where you are! Shipping is no longer a problem!

What has FPS been doing? Custom letterpress business cards, wedding sets, custom designs, new boxes and ranting

June 25, 2015 Andreea

FPS has been quite busy, even though lately you can tell people are finally starting their summer holidays. We’ve been working on several custom letterpress business cards, new templates for business cards (which i’m quite anxious to have up in the shop), new templates for save the date cards and also our very first letterpress wedding invitations and reception cards!

We played with ink colors again as we took on a custom letterpress business cards order that had to be printed in navy blue (i must admit, i can’t wait for the client to receive her package as these cards are definitely my favorite project so far! They turned out wonderful! Will have to wait for a confirmation before showing any photos though.). Continuing with ink colors playing, we re-printed our business cards using a sort of metallic copper-gold-brownish ink. Now that’s a color description! But seriously, it’s exactly that! It is a sparkling copper in the sunlight, but it turns brown when inside… The photos can’t really show these subtle changes, but in reality this ink color is quite amazing!

Our first custom wedding stationery set is also something i’m very proud of. I really enjoyed working on the design and we’re actually close to completion. We printed this wedding set in navy blue as well and we also made custom envelopes with blind printing on them. I’m guessing the actual Pantone color for the year is not really Marsala, but Navy Blue…

Our packaging shop will also be updated with new boxes quite soon. We have a bunch of them not listed yet, but alas, my all time nemesis, photography, gets in the way!

The letterpress shop is also in full-mode Christmas in July party! We have a special offer for Christmas in July: free shipping!! I’ll be doing a separate post about this too, but i thought i should mention it here too. So all of you business owners in search for impressive business cards or tags, all of you love-birds searching for beautiful wedding stationery that your guests won’t be able to throw away, all of you people around the world in search of custom letterpress printing, now it’s your chance! We’ll be handling the shipping for you, so there are no boundaries!

I really felt like ranting today, so i’ve done it! It’s also because i should have blogged sooner, but i must admit i’m also thinking of my summer holiday a lot lately…

The Funky Studio team wishes you, as always, a colorful day!

[Behind the scenes] Custom letterpress tags and business cards for Printsmith

June 17, 2015 Andreea

The custom letterpress tags and business cards we made for Printsmith couldn’t have been a more enjoyable project for us! When i was writing about the business cards we made for BURNISH + BONE, i mentioned the fact that it was really an emotional journey for me. Well this time around, everything went along smoothly from the beginning to the end!

First of all, i really like the design of Printsmith’s logo and i instantly new it’d look wonderful letterpress printed! The card stock choice was also good. I usually like working with the sparkling bright white card stock, but this time Printsmith’s Dora chose the porcelain-white one and it was definitely the best choice.

Here are the short technical details for both the custom letterpress square cards and business cards for Printsmith:

– 450gsm China White card stock, one side printing, 9 x 5 cm, black ink for the business cards

– 450gsm China White card stock, one side printing, 7 x 7 cm, black ink for the custom letterpress cards / tags

New small boxes with lid available! Presentation boxes, square favor boxes, jewelry boxes

June 8, 2015 Andreea

The small boxes with lid that we already had listed on our etsy shop are definitely our best selling boxes. They are actually usually bought by handmade jewelry crafters and artists, so we’re really excited to have these presentation boxes available in yet another size.

The small boxes with lid have been requested by a lot of people, so we have high hopes for these new ones to achieve the same popularity as their sisters (?).

Here are the technical details for these cute jewelry boxes:

– small boxes with lid, square jewelry boxes, presentation boxes, favor boxes, small gift boxes, party favors or wedding favors. Tip: you can have some traditional white candies wrapped in organza or tulle and then placed inside the boxes, if you’re looking for wedding favors; if you’re looking for baby shower favors, you can have small ceramic figurines wrapped inside that organza or tulle.

– size: 2.95 x 2.95 x 1.18 ” (inches) = 7.5 x 7.5 x 3 cm

– card stock: extra white, grey (white on the inside) or natural brown kraft (white on the inside)

– they come in sets of 20

– these small boxes with lid don’t require any double adhesive tape; you just fold and assemble! The easiest way to assemble a box.

– find them in our shop over here.

We’ve just listed these small boxes with lid on our etsy shop today, but i feel like they’ll be well received, just like it happened with the other two lidded boxes we have. You can find those here and here.

I keep talking about how well liked the other boxes with lid are and here’s why:
