Lizzie Parker's designs are striking, bright and simple using just one or two colours to depict the shadows, highlights and character of animals concentrating on their eyes. She uses simple lines and shapes to not only get lovely texture with the print form but to also suggest the character of that animal.
All of the designs are produced on an original Heidelberg Platen Windmill printing press from the early 20th century, all our cards are printed on a 100% recycled paper stock milled in Germany. The paper has a beautiful high-quality finish which works in perfect harmony with the letterpress printing to realise Lizzie's designs and get greater impression in printing.
The way in which we use letterpress printing is modern and unique to anyone else in the industry juxtaposing the old and the new giving the work a wonderfully tactile finish which can be both seen and felt. We also feel that choosing to print our cards letterpress has also shaped her design style with her economic use of bold colours mostly combining one bright with one dark to get the greatest impact.
