SCREEN PRINTING
is a multi-step process of printing ink through a superfine mesh screen which acts like a stencil. Since each ink color is printed individually through its own screen, we are able to achieve very bold, bright and precise ink colors by hand-mixing each color to our liking.
HAND MADE QUALITY
Our paper goods are designed, printed & assembled by us with love in Ypsilanti, Michigan.
Our process & materials result in a high quality product with a print that won't fade over time.
ECO-FRIENDLY
We pride ourselves on using water-based screen printing inks and recycled white and kraft paper stocks from French Paper Company, a Michigan paper mill that operates on 100% hydropower. Additionally, we like to use our resources wisely - ganging up cards on larger sized sheets to save energy and materials, using leftover ink from other jobs to make new inks, using leftover scrap paper to make our promotional materials, re-using cardboard boxes from the shop's shipments, etc. We love earth.
