Getting involved in the letterpress or hot foil action is dead easy. Here’s how;
1. request a sample & get in touch
Deciding on your invitation suite is a big decision, so requesting a sample allows you to be completely confident in your choice. If you have any questions at all, we’re on the end of the phone, or you can pop us an email.
2. placing your order
Once you are certain you have made the right choice, we just need you to email us confirming the details of what you would like to order. (Please see our a-g above!) Please do remember that we work directly from the wording you send us, so please ensure it has been double-checked for any errors. This will save the need for additional proofs.
Once we have all this information, we can forward you an invoice and payment details.
As so much work is involved in perfecting our designs, full payment is required before we get things underway.
3. proofing your artwork
Once we have received payment, we will send you a confirmation of your order. We will then get to work, beavering away on your personalised proof, which will be emailed to you in PDF/JPEG format within 3 working days. The nature of letterpress means we are not able to send you physical proofs of your artwork, so we work digitally.
Any tweaks or changes can be made at this stage, so we can ensure you’re completely happy before we go to print. Two revisions to the proof are included in the price of your invitations, however, you will be charged £15 for any further revisions, so make sure you are happy with the wording before you place your order.
4. artwork approval
Before giving us the go-ahead to print your order, it’s really important to have checked your artwork thoroughly. We will print directly from the artwork you approve, so any errors that have slipped through the net will appear on your printed goods.
When you are certain you are happy, please email confirmation to set the printing wheels in motion.
5. printing and delivery
You can learn more about what happens when you have approved your artwork here, but in short, we get things underway with meticulous attention to detail.
If you have opted for our standard turnaround, your order will be printed, guillotined, packaged and dispatched to you in 10-15 working days from your approval to print.
Our expedited turnaround will have the order dispatched to you in 5-7 working days.
All our U.K. orders are sent by a tracked, next working day courier service. A signature will be required on delivery.
Need international shipping? Pop us an email and we can confirm the details.
