Order 206166 — boxes
Order 206166: a euro tote, matte black, gold monogram. The restraint is the point.
Two rules
- 01Gold on matte black laminate. Dropped the die temperature and lengthened the dwell so the foil bonds to the laminate rather than scorching it.
- 02Handles after foil. Stamped flat, then set the grommets and knotted the cotton rope. The monogram stays centred to the trimmed panel.
The brief
Euro-tote gift bag 8×10×4 in in matte black laminated paper with black cotton rope handles; a small gold hot-foil monogram centred on the front; black tissue peeking from the top.

Same paper, foil and finish, locked in — nothing of Order 206166's artwork comes with it.
Questions
- What is the Order 206166 boxes printed on?
- Matte black laminated paper, Gold hot foil, Cotton rope handles. Every line of that spec is what actually ran, not a proposal.
- Why gold on matte black laminate?
- Foil on laminated paper can lift if the die runs too hot for the film. Dropped the die temperature and lengthened the dwell so the foil bonds to the laminate rather than scorching it.
- Can Print Peppermint print this specification again?
- Yes. The materials on this page are live registry items, and the Studio link opens with the same paper, foil and finish locked in for your own artwork.
