Precise Continental was honored to be asked to make the invitation for the NY Premiere of Gruppo Cordenons new paper line Boutique at the Four Seasons in NYC on March 4th.

The invitation was foil stamped, engraved and mounted on the new oh so fabulous stock - So…Silk.

The event was a smash! Gruppo Cordenons commissioned 5 students from FIT to design, manufacture and model dresses made from their new line of Boutique Papers. What talent these young budding designers have.

Mounting is a great process that can be used to enhance your project and make it unique. The mounting process involves taking  2 sheets of paper and adhering them together with a glue to make them double thick. They are then placed in a hydraulic press so the glue can set between the sheets of paper.  Mounting can be done between 2 sheets or more than 2 sheets of paper.

Some uses for mounting:

• Create a unique duplex stock - if you can’t find a duplex stock that you like we can mount 2 sheets together to create your own custom duplex paper
• Make an invitation that will make a real impact - mount a 100# Superfine cover to a 4ply museum board to another sheet of superfine. The ultra-thickness of the piece will make it stand out from all the other invitations.
• Engrave both sides of a business cards. Normally you don’t want to engrave 2 sides of a business card because the bruise from each side will be visible on the other side. A way around this is to engrave on 2 separate sheets of paper and then mount them together. You will have the beauty and elegance of engraving on both sides without seeing the bruise.
