I’m continuing to be pleased with the results of the inkjet printing process and wanted to share some photos of recent portfolios that I’ve made using this wonderful technique.
Inkjet printing is a versatile and cost effective way to personalize your portfolio.  You can find some more information on the website www.kdbooks.com. If you have any questions regarding the process and the possibility of adding it your portfolio please email me at: kristin@kdbooks.com

6 New Colors
6 new coated fabrics have just been added to the covering options for portfolios, presentation boxes and invitation folders.
There are now 43 options available in 3 types of covering materials; linen, metallic and coated.
These new coated fabrics are very easy to maintain as they can be gently wiped down with a lightly dampened cloth. They are impregnated with a sizing that prevents the moisture from penetrating the material and reaching the core of the structure. The metallics also have this property which make them, along with the coated materials, ideal for portfolios that will see a lot of use or that are left out to be handled on a daily basis. You can request swatches of these or any of the 43 fabrics by sending an email to kristin@kdbooks.com. The full color chart can been seen here at kdbooks.com

Fabric Covered Invitation Folders and Panels
Mounting your printed invites to a fabric covered panel or folder can add texture, dimension and elegance to any invitation.
Recipients are sure to take your invite seriously when they find it in their mailbox. They’ll feel as if they’ve received a special package rather than just another piece of mail.
Prices vary based on size and quantity. For more information please visit the invitation section of the website.
Panels and folders are available in 4 sizes that fit comfortably into A7, A9, #10 and square format 6 1/2″ x 6 1/2″ envelopes. Printed pieces can be easily mounted to panels and folders by using double sided tape, glue sticks, spray adhesive or adhesive rolls like GUDY.
All invitation presentation structures can be covered in one of the 37 fabric colors available. In addition, pocket folders are available and can be covered in a combination of up to 3 colors, one for the folder itself, one for the liner (back of the pocket) and one for the pocket.
Fabric swatches are encouraged and are available upon request. You can see the 37 colors here.
As with everything at kdbooks.com, folders and panels are all handmade in California and constructed with the highest attention to detail.
Custom sizes and colors are also available. To discuss a custom project or to get answers to any of your questions please contact the studio
