FPS is currently working on: custom letterpress save the date cards… again!

Yep, it appears that FPS is very lucky when it comes to custom letterpress save the date cards. This time around, the cards i’ve designed according to our lovely client’s requests are just a bit trickier: there are two ink colors printed on 450gsm China White card stock and we also have a bit of die-cutting!

Well this last photo i wasn’t exactly supposed to post as i hate ruining surprises, but i still wanted to show juuust a bit of everything: two ink colors, die-cutting, China White card stock. Also, since this photo is taken with my phone i think it’s safe to say that it’s not ruining much of the surprise, right? These custom letterpress save the date cards are yet another project i’m really proud of.

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

Pantone color of 2015 – Marsala [Etsy treasury]

According to Pantone, the trending color of 2015 is Marsala. A bit of an inside joke: after communicating this fact to a friend, he concluded with “Are you making up words now?”

Marsala, the best way i can put it, is a combination of dark red and copper; somehow close to the color of ripened sour cherries. Even though it is considered more of a summer shade, i just can’t seem to wrap my mind around it. I definitely find it a fall color, but hey! beauty is in the eye of the beholder, right?

Well keeping Marsala in mind as the Pantone color of 2015, here’s the very first color themed treasury i’ve put together:
