A CREATIVE COLLABORATION

The Hard Workin’ Holiday Packs came out of a desire to, one day, provide a platform for Reflect to collaborate with other creative colleagues, making awesome projects that showcase the fantastic things that only come from creatives working together. The first 2 holiday packs gave us the foundation to launch our first REAL collaboration this year, with our friend Mike Hepher of Clawhammer Press. We’re proud to present, The Hard Workin’ Pocketbook.

Since the process is just as exciting as the end product for us, We hope you enjoy seeing the blood, sweat and tears (metaphorical of coarse) that went into this little pocketbook.

SOME EARLY BRAINSTORMING POINTED US IN THE DIRECTION OF A NOTEBOOK THAT SHOWCASED THE RAD CHARACTER OF LETTERPRESS ON THE OUTSIDE, WITH SOME SIGNATURE RDCO. SECRET SAUCE ON THE INSIDE.
A FEW EARLY SKETCHES AND CONCEPTS THAT WE PASSED BACK AND FORTH.

MIKE CAN NOW BE NAMED THE HAND-CARVED HALFTONE KING.

ONCE MIKE HAD THE FIRST FEW LAYERS PUT DOWN, WE MET AT HIS STUDIO IN FERNIE TO PRINT AND SET THE LAST FEW LAYERS TOGETHER.

THANKS TO THE MAGIC OF LETTERPRESS, NO TWO NOTEBOOKS ARE THE SAME. A TRULY LIMITED EDITION of 100.

WHILE MIKE WAS HARD AT WORK CARVING OUT ALL THEM DOTS EARLIER, I WAS WORKIN’ AWAY ON THE INSIDES, TRYING MY BEST TO MAKE THE INTERNALS WORTHY OF THOSE INSANE COVERS. OUR FRIENDS AT ROCKY MOUNTAIN PRINTERS BROUGHT THE INSIDES TO LIFE AND BOUND EVERYTHING TOGETHER WITH SOME SLICK SILVER COIL BINDING.
THANKS FOR CHECKING OUT THE PROCESS. I HOPE IT MAKES YOU LOVE THAT LITTLE NOTEBOOK A LITTLE BIT MORE.
THANKS TO MIKE FOR BEING SUCH A GREAT COLLABORATOR (YOU BEST BE CHECKIN’ OUT CLAWHAMMER PRESS IF YOU HAVEN’T ALREADY), AND TO ROCKY MOUNTAIN PRINTERS FOR KILLIN’ IT, AS ALWAYS
