Boston Scientific Coasters

Our good friends at Duz Creative designed these wonderful coasters for Boston Scientific, and when they approached us about printing we were super excited. Little did we know that there were TEN colors on this beast of a project featuring 8 different designs. Each sheet went through the press at least 10 times. Phew. That is some fully pressed paper. We then die cut these pretty little coasters, and they made quite the set when they were finally put together. After this project was done, we all took a nap.

Holiday 2013: Gift Giving, Booze, and Snowflakes

Are you looking for holiday decor and gift wrapping accessories with a bit of humor this season? Or maybe some that are a bit vintage inspired with that tactile letterpress feel we all love? Featuring holiday cards, hang tags, gift stickers, paper lightbulbs with string, and coasters; this Holiday collection is hard to pass up! You can buy it all for $35, or you can purchase items individually between $5 and $8! Check it all out in our store (under the card category), which is conveniently linked right here. Go on, check it out! You don’t have to tell anyone you started holiday shopping before Black Friday hits. However, you should probably tell them so they can snatch these fine letterpress goods up before they disappear!

AIGA Redesign Awards

This past fall, the annual AIGA conference was hosted in Minneapolis along with the annualAIGA Redesign Awards. We volunteered our time, ink, and used paper to the effort! Using old make-ready prints from the Airship graphic novel, we printed the award certificates over the top! We took a bright green color and overlaid it over the illustrative backs, and created really beautiful upcycled awards.

Wedding Invites

It’s been loud around the shop lately – and not just because of our press. Wedding bells have been clanging all summer long with our massive influx of wedding invitations needing to be printed! All jokes aside, we’re happy for all these couples and glad we were able to provide them with some beautiful and fancy invites. Most of these were brought to us by other designers, so it’s really wonderful to see the level of talent in our community and to be able to help finish their work off with the perfect high-quality craftsmanship we strive for. Using good ol’ classic letterpress printing, edge painting, blind debossing, die cutting and metallic inks – we definitely covered all our bases with these invites.

Market Street Dermatology Branding

When the doctors over at Market Street Dermatology approached us here at Angel Bomb to design an identity for their new dermatological office, we were very excited. After talks about what kind of look they were going for, we knew the best approach was something classy, modern, and clean. We ended up creating a street sign motif out of negative space with modern type. After designing a line of stationary to match, complete with greeting cards, we knew we had set up Market Street Dermatology with an identity suite that we could both be proud of. Once it was all designed we jumped on the press to print some awesome and tactile goods for them. An interesting part of this project worth mentioning is that we used both offset and letterpress printing for their pieces. By using offset we were able to get better coverage with the flood of ink on the backside of the cards. Best of luck to them with their new business!
