Neenah Paper
It’s a great time to take a closer look at ESSE and OXFORD Premium Papers from Neenah Paper. No matter what is printed on them, the bold colors and sumptuous textures create a sensation that invites the reader to linger.
These papers just get noticed. The newest promotion from Neenah Paper is designed to reacquaint you with these papers by offering you the opportunity to work and interact with them. Hot off the press, the “Striking Every Time” promotion for OXFORD and ESSE Premium Papers will tempt your creative persona.
The new promotion contains eight unique clock faces created with ESSE and OXFORD Papers. They showcase a range of printing techniques from 4-color process to metallic inks, as well as embossing and diecutting.
“Striking Every Time” is more than just an engaging visual and tactile experience for recipients. It includes a working clock motor, and each clock face can be assembled and actually used, displayed on your desk, or your wall. The whimsical sample designs vary. Some are bold, some are subtle, but all are creatively distinct.
Your Clock Design on an iPhone App!
For your more adventurous (or competitive) spirit, Neenah presents the “Your Time To Shine” contest, which allows you to create your own clock faces on ESSE and OXFORD Papers. Your original clock face can use photography, type, illustration, whatever means you choose, as long as you use these two papers.
Choose your paper colors and order your free sample sheets by visiting www.neenahpaper.com/clockcontest. Create your best timepiece, then simply upload an image file of your work of art and enter it into a contest to be used in Neenah’s next iPhone and iPad app.
Once on the site, visitors can view all of the current entries and vote on their favorites. You can even invite your friends to promote your designs through Facebook and Twitter “share” links to gain those important votes. The five posted clock face designs with the highest number of votes on October 1, 2010 will win the contest.
So Many Textures and Colors
Both of these brands have so much to offer you’ll want to design more than one clock face. ESSE Paper features 20 unique Beatrice Santiccioli inspired colors organized into four color families arranged in a series of tonal steps, plus a set of vivid accent colors.
Each of the four palettes boasts a complement of harmonious pearlized colors that present with a metallic-like sheen. The texture is created through a watermarked grid of delicately patterned squares that increase in size as the weight increases. All 20 colors contain recycled content, including 30 percent postconsumer fibers.
The luxurious colors and tactile impressions of OXFORD Premium Papers will never fail to add excitement to any print project. This is a premium recycled grade with a look and feel all its own. With its cloth-like pattern, it is reminiscent of luxurious fabrics; its sumptuous hues are a perfect match to contemporary interiors. OXFORD’S 15 beautiful Holly Hunt inspired colors and unique finish offer substance and style, as well as 30 percent postconsumer fibers.
It’s your time to shine! So order up some paper samples, put a new blade in your X-ACTO, and get started. For more details and information about the contest, visit www.neenahpaper.com/clockcontest.
