Studio note
This concept keeps the customer's centred ivory-cotton composition intact but introduces the TBD brand's dominant deep teal (sampled from the reference logo) as a duplex Colorplan back. The square 5×5 format tightens the generous margins into a more compact, modern proportion — still centred-classical, still restrained. The visible teal core stripe on four edges is the only colour flourish; on the ivory face, the same raised blind emboss carries the logo, border and date, while deep navy letterpress handles the personalized message. A translucent vellum wrap and a Racing Green belly band (with white foil stamp type) give the piece a layered unboxing moment. The physical difference from Concept 1 is the duplex construction and format — the cost difference comes from the duplexing, the belly band print, and the vellum. When you turn the card over you see solid Racing Green; in your hand the teal core stripe catches the light. Coverage is set to generous because you asked for it — the mark plus a pattern, border or repeated motif across the surface.
