Badass Card

Badass Card

It’s always good to keep these cards on hand as a pizzazzier way to say “Thank You” to folks who don’t mind a little colorful language. Letterpressed by hand in my Oakland studio on a Vandercook #4, this A2-sized folded greeting card is accompanied by a light gray French Paper envelope. Pair with one of my Badass pins for a sweet little gift set! Colors may vary slightly from print to print due to ink density.

Framing Instructions

Nothing beats custom framing, but if you're looking for an economical option for standard-sized frames I highly recommend Opposite Wall’s natural oak frames. To best protect your print from sun damage, I recommend replacing the plexi with UV plexi or glass.

I’m also a fan of Well Made Co. oak magnetic hangers. I tested a lot of magnetic hanging options and they were by far the best quality. Magnetic hangers are great for large or odd-sized prints.

Creative Process

  • Sketch

    Every piece of art begins as a sketch, exploring different layouts and styles. I sketch in either pencil or on an iPad in Procreate.

  • Final Art

    The final vector artwork is drafted point by point in Adobe Illustrator. I love getting lost in the details and spending hours perfecting curves.

  • Letterpress!

    Color separations are made, plates are created, and the final artwork is hand printed one color at a time on my Vandercook press.

Printed on my Vandercook Press!

All of my letterpress prints are created on a 1940s Vandercook #4 cylinder proof press located in my Oakland workshop. I purchased it from my pal Brit, who purchased it from my other bud Jordan. It has quite a powerlady lineage!
