Visual anatomy & craft review
Letterform structure
of Slinky Fabric.
Slinky Fabric is an ultra-thin monoline print face with spiral-curled hooks on capitals and ascenders, tall disconnected rounded letters and airy spacing, so a name reads as written with a fine pen rather than a brush. The curls grow the artwork box upward, and the hairline weight means the face needs size and a smooth stock to survive print. It needs roughly 20 mm for the curls to read, and it is best in charcoal on cream or as a light foil on smooth board.

Fine invitation, menu and place card
A hairline print face with curls reads as a delicate invitation set by hand, which is what a restrained wedding wants. The curls give the names a decorative edge without a script, and the face holds details at 9 pt.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Invitation 130 x 180 mm, names 26 mm with 8 mm curl clearance, details 9/13 pt, 15 mm margins. Menu 120 x 210 mm, header 16 pt, dishes 9/13 pt. Place card 90 x 50 mm, name 9 pt.
Pre-production check
Heavy cotton stock drinks ink and a 0.2 mm hairline breaks into fragments on the place card. Print on smooth card or raise the names to 14 pt, and pull one proof before the suite.
Thank-you card, keepsake tag and gift-wrap band
A fine curled face reads as a note written with a good pen, which is what a keepsake thank-you is. The curls give a short message a decorative line, and the hairline prints beautifully on smooth card at 9 pt.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Card 120 x 170 mm, greeting 22 mm with 8 mm curl clearance, message 8/12 pt, 14 mm margins. Tag 45 x 80 mm, word 9 mm with a 4 mm hole and 6 mm clear card. Band 300 x 60 mm, word 20 mm, 10 mm margins.
Pre-production check
A 45 mm tag puts a curled hook against the punched hole and the card tears on the string. Keep 6 mm of clear card, and check one strung tag before the batch.
Garden-party invitation, seed label and table card
A thin curled face reads as a spring lunch invitation, which is what a plant sale or garden party sends. The curls hold at 24 mm on a card, and the hairline prints cleanly on a smooth cream stock.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Invitation 120 x 180 mm, names 24 mm with 8 mm curl clearance, details 9/13 pt, 15 mm margins. Seed label 60 x 90 mm, name 12 mm, notes 6/9 pt, 4 mm die margin. Table card 90 x 50 mm, name 9 mm.
Pre-production check
A seed packet is folded and a curl crossing the fold cracks when the packet closes. Keep the flourish 6 mm clear of every fold, and check one folded packet before the batch.
