About this deal

Print in smaller sets of 10-15 and try to use sheets from a similar batch. The batches are easily identifiable as they look very similar. In some cases, carefully tearing off small bits of the thinner edges on the paper generally helps get a better result as the printer finds it easier to process." I am very grateful for my clients and their trust because it is not easy to communicate virtually and not to see designs personally, but they are always very pleased with the end result. I would never create anything that I don't like myself, I am a detail-lover!"

Experienced ink artisans provide their answers to common questions for getting started with handmade paper, from basics like nibs and inks, to tips on staying comfortable when writing. As an avid paper lover, handmade paper offers a unique quality that others just cannot match. There's a rawness and beauty in the imperfections." Many calligraphers and stationers don't offer this option but I think it looks beautiful and it's also great for day-of items like table numbers, table plans, and menus – meaning you can match them with your wedding invitations."Yes, I absolutely love this! As long as your design works in a single colour then it will work printing in specialised inks like white ink." We use handmade paper because of the tactility and expressiveness it adds to our work. It feels like a love letter from our client to their guests. The property of it feeling handcrafted, elevated and personalised is what draws us to it as well. It's a great choice for our brand because it aligns with our philosophy of celebrating imperfections and authenticity. We recommend handmade paper to clients who have the budget for it. It definitely makes our work a lot more special and brings a certain sense of uniqueness to it. And, our clients love that!" etc. If you are looking for something that you will treasure and keep as a memento of your big day than I would highly recommend hiring a designer to assist you. Designers are in that profession for a reason - they are highly trained and experienced in what they do so you can be sure of an amazing finished product."

Experienced stationery designers give their insights for printing on handmade paper – covering which printers work best at home to using professional printing services. Digital printing is a great option for clients whose budget is not that high but still want to use handmade paper. It really looks great, those fine lines really get me! I tend to print on White and Ivory pieces and both look amazing, I especially love the combo on White paper, it's gorgeous! I understand the unbeatable beauty of letterpress and gold/metallic hot foil, but digital printing definitely also has the magic, too." Handmade paper is a very nice quality paper that would look great in a frame. Simply mounting it on coloured card would complement it really well. I simply love it. I feel like it connects you to another type of art and adds value to the end piece. It’s the perfect mix of knowing that somebody took the time to create each piece, having the natural texture and the timelessness all together."We usually print everything in-house! However, for white ink on dark paper we typically outsource, mainly because I always prefer having someone with more experience on that area work on our pieces. Typically, 30% extra pieces are required for the margin of error." I prefer using 300gsm. It will usually run smoother through the printer! Using 200gsm works for longer pieces but you can encounter more jamming troubles with this weight." Many companies make handmade paper and machine made paper that can replicate this finish. We would suggest looking at Khadi Papers as they produce traditional handmade Indian papers, their products are professional, high-quality and unique. Other brands like Saunders Waterford make one-off products like the Watercolour Fat Pad, compared to Khadi this paper is made using a machine, however, the quality and finish makes it feel handmade. I always sketch my illustrations first and then use a piece of transparent paper to sit over the sketch and do a pen version with more detail. Next, I scan the sketch, take it into Illustrator and vectorise it. Then it's ready to go into any design at any size!"
