Creative Ideas?
Thursday, September 6, 2007
I'd like to use these large 9 x 12 envelopes from Paper Source for a direct mail campaign we are doing at work. We'll also be using the matching presentation folders. Since the envelopes and folders are black we cannot print on them. Can anyone suggest a creative way of putting our logo on these materials? I'm a little hesitant to use stickers or labels.

How about having a custom stamp made and using that? That gives you a wide variety of color / ink choices (i.e. white / metallic / even texture.) I used the white "chalk" ink from Paper Source to stamp onto a friend's wedding invitations and it looked lovely!
I like the stamp idea.. the first thing that came to my mind was using a laser cutter to etch into the surface a bit. But it's probably too pricey.
If the stamping is too "handmade", there's always screenprinting.
Won't you have to use stickers for the addresses?
You could do a big sticker. The sticker could wrap from the front side (address side) to half or a quarter of the back side (envelope flap). The back side of the sticker could be a logo, or a bright color, while the front will be the address, or whatever other info you need. You could do the same, but wrap the sticker from the front to the back over the top of the envelope. I hope this make sense. Good luck!! Post when it's done!
embossing?
I've seen an awesome packet using a clear envelope over the solid dark color then a label affixed to that. It was pretty cool..and if that's the case you could do with out the black envelope and just put the folder in??
ALSO cut out a slot in the envelope to show the address on an inside sheet??
