My card was completely hand made by me, after months of planning and trouble-shooting. I used Crane Lettra 220 lb stock and screen printed my custom pattern on one side, letter pressed the other using my etching press. I outlined the whole labor of love on my blog, I even have a video of how I used the press. I was inspired by the yearning to create something tangible and beautiful after 6 years of motion graphics design, sitting behind a screen. I wanted to show that not only can I create commercial work but I am a well rounded designer and am not afraid to get my hands dirty. If anyone would like to see the process feel free to visit http://sophiegallo.blogspot.com/2010/09/my-business-cards-or-my-everest.html
