   I love the embossed feel of those. It really adds depth to the card – literally :). Does that cost extra? I’m sure a lot of communication has to happen between the designer & the printer to get something like that.

   these are great. I love the embossed work. You don’t always see that so often anymore and I think it’s nice. Thanks

   This reminds me of American Psycho, you know the movie in which Bates has bus card envy and goes berserk over the dude who has a “prettier” card than his. LoL.

   P.S. Am really digin the blue bird design.

    @Missy Agreed, the card from Blue Bird Design stands out from the rest.

    Thanks for posting up my card on here! The Mandate Press did an outstanding job on them, along with my designer LIz, from Ruk Creative.

    Wow, some really elegantly tactile cards!

    Nice, but overdone. Would love to see some stylish minimalist ones that don’t cost a fortune to print.

    How much does a run of 100 letterpressed cards usually cost??

    Very nice collection. I love letterpress work…the richness of texture and the interesting affects are always great to see. The letterpress process really adds an essence of 3D character to a 2D product. Thank you for the wonderful post!
