Leadlight Series
Stained glass windows are beautiful when backlit by the sun and also a unique way to showcase this design and printing process. These business cards are virtually hand made. Silk screen printed on a clear plastic stock and then dried one colour at a time. Clear areas are treated as a colour unlocking the full design potential of the stock. A pearlescent seal and UV overgloss complete the process and create sophisticated effects. The design really comes to life when the cards are held up to a window.
