Edgy Cards

I have the fortune to be able to join Lisa for morning workouts when my own workout at Kinetic with Cayla isn’t running.

Being able to train with Lisa’s coach Matt Cormier is a great way to mix things up, and working out with Lisa from time to time is lovely (she is fierce).

When Cayla was on vacation a few weeks ago, I ended up doing three workouts with Matt, and, by way of thanking him, I proposed printing him some business cards for his recently-rebranded RISE80 gym.

“Matt’s pretty edgy,” Lisa said, when I suggested this, throwing down a gauntlet.

Here’s what I came up with:

80 business cards, arranged 10 across by 8 down, drying on a table. Each card has "80" in large type, printed in the top-right corner. The 8 is slightly cut off on the top, and the 0 is cut off even more.

The cards were printed on my Golding Jobber No. 8 in 120 pt. Akzidenz Grotesk on business cards I inherited from Bill and Gertie Campbell when I purchased the press.

You can see me and Lisa working out in this recent Instagram reel from Matt.
