The Vintage Airstream Campaign, lenlee represents 2010 self promotion
This is a cool and quirky piece that Foils & Dies is super excited to have been a part of. lenlee is a photographer rep who took her love for the iconic silver airstream trailers and tasked each of the photographers to shoot their own vintage airstream story. Ian Nordeck worked with lenlee and her group to bring each of their unique interpretations together into a cohesive campaign and brought it all to us.
We letterpressed the wrap and information card with 2 colors on a natural white stock with a super heavy bite to get a nice rich impression. The wrap is die cut to fold around and contain the four sets of postcards and the air freshener. lenlee’s contact card was then diecut in the back of the wrap.
Wendi Nordeck, one of the photographers of the campaign, has taken some phenomenal photos of the finished promotion.
Ian was our cohort in creation and on press with us for the entire process. He took some great photos of all the small details and the job as it was on press.
These photographers are phenomenal and the work they’ve done for the vintage airstream campaign is definitely something you’ll want to check out – just click on their names below

This wedding invitation package is a wonderful example of the detail that can be achieved with letterpress. This set was printed in 2 colors on Crane Lettra. The invitation design has a very art deco flair, perfect for the couple, as they got married at the Denver Botanic Gardens. It was a perfect set for capturing details, as in the complex pattern in the wings of the dragonfly and the fine lines of the flourishes.
This is a wedding package we printed for Laura and John. They wanted to keep it simple with a rustic flair. This was a second marriage for the both of them and they wanted to symbolize their five children by putting five chicks in the nest on their invitation. We letterpressed the invitation and response card on thick 100% cotton letterpress paper in chocolate brown to get a nice bite, foil stamped their return address on red envelopes, and letterpressed their logo on bags which held everything inside the outer envelopes.

Here at Foils & Dies we can’t help ourselves, we love to kiss and tell. This is our own Pucker Up promotion. Each set of lips indicates a different level of impression for letterpress printing. We’ve found this is the perfect way to communicate letterpress when we can’t see a client in person. We printed the most recent run on a variety of shades from

We recently had a group of students from the Art Institute of Colorado visit Foils + Dies to get a “feel” for letterpress. Professor Ed Popovitz and his digital pre-press class joined us in the studio for a lesson in what it’s like to take a project from concept to production. We had a chance to show off some of our favorite projects and review a job we had on press.
