About JW Paper Creations

jess

Hii!! Thank you so much for stopping by! I’m Jess, Founder & Creator behind JW Paper Creations. I first started by paper journey while preparing for my own wedding. My husband and I had our invitations professionally printed, I used them as a base and ended up designing all our day of stationery myself. I absolutely fell in love with the process and from there JW Paper was born! I genuinely get excited to create all types of pieces from weddings, baby announcements, shower invitations, and everyday cards. I know with the digital age we live in now the art of paper isn’t as popular, but there is something so special about physical paper (I mean I literally watch for the mail to be delivered everyday and get so excited when we receive cards from friends and family (anyone else?)), and when it’s done right it can be B-E-A-UTIFUL! I love everything to have a cohesive look without being too matchy-matchy. When I’m not working on stationery, I can be found hanging out with my family, cleaning or organizing something in my house (seriously the to-do list keeps growing!) or binge watching a T.V. show.

Printing Styles

I currently offer three printing styles: Digital Printing, Foil Printing and Letterpress Printing

Digital printing:

Digital printing prints digital/electronic design on paper. The design is sent directly to a digital printer where the design will be transferred to paper. Digital printing offers a high quality of high resolution design prints and a high rate of color consistency between each individual piece. Digital printing is usually done with either toner (think laser print) or ink. Once printed on paper, the digital design will lay flat on the paper and will not have any texture.

Foil Printing:

A printing style to add a bit of glitz and glam to your stationery! Foil printing consist of three parts: a metal die cute plate, heat and pressure. A design is carved onto a metal plate (outlining where the foil will be) and will be pressed onto the paper of choice. In-between the metal plate and the paper lies the foil. The metal plate is heated, pressed against the foil and bound to the paper. Foil printing will elevate your digital design and take your stationery up a knotch!

letterpress Printing:

Letterpress printing will be sure to wow anyone who encounters your stationery! It is truly an art and is an extremely manual process. This printing style will add texture to your stationery, where you can actually feel the difference gliding your fingers over the text or design. Letterpress can be printed using either foil or ink, but has a maximum of two color options. Similar to foil printing, metal plates are used to print the design onto the physical paper, and if more than two colors are used, the colors can run together and you will not be left with a clean and crisp design (which is what we want!).
