Behind the Scenes: The Creative Process
The birth of every card starts with the seed of an idea. At Paper Isle, we try to think differently.
Rather than simply creating an image that ‘looks nice’, we consider current trends, emerging industries and even
the odd bit of current events and social commentary. And sometimes we just create images that look nice!

Drawing & Painting
Not only that, we do model making and photography too. Often we will combine mediums and techniques to create something special.
Printing


Foiling
Now to the digital foiling. This is a lengthy, complex, multi-stage procedure, involving 2 machines and multiple passes.
However, we think the effort is worth it and results in beautiful, shiny products you can’t help but admire!
Finishing
Next it’s on to ‘finishing’. Again, multiple machines are involved: a creaser is used to give the cards a nice, deep crack-free fold. Then the excess paper is trimmed by the guillotine on all 4 sides, later to be recycled.


Packing
Finally your cards are complete. They are packed into our sturdy double-walled boxes, including their premium white peel & seal envelopes. They will make their way to you via next day courier service, ready to find new homes in the hands of your grateful recipients!
Show your clients you care, with a Paper Isle Christmas Card.
