For those who can’t spend a lot on their identity and branding there is always a creative solution to get the most out of a tight budget. This piece was created as a sample from Neenah Paper for getting the most out of their Astrobright Paper. As a brightly colored paper, printing options do not have to be a main cost, even a one color print job can have the perfect look. The use of negative space gives life to the paper color creating a superior look to using another color ink. One of the great features of the Astrobright line is that most of the colors can work well with just one color along with a good use of the blank page.
