Last week I finished printing California Poppy at Painted Tongue Press. This is a two color card printed on the Heidelberg windmill. The green was printed by Hope, who is another letterpress printer printing away at Painted Tongue. I finished the card with orange – the butterfly is a double hit, first printed in green then a second layer of orange to create the brown of his wings. For the Heidelberg a tight registration like this is not a problem. I don’t want to try this on a Vandercook … Yesterday I was in the studio and took pictures of our latest cards. I really like how this one turned out.
