The bottom line: $195 for 500 cards, printed 4-color with soy-based inks on one side, 100% PCW paper. ($225 for 4-color both sides)
Dolphin Blue in Dallas: This company boasts an impressive list of eco-clients from the magazine Plenty to the stationery company Twisted Limb. Like Greg Barber, Dolphin Blue offers FSC-certified 100% PCW, FSC-certified paper that's processed chlorine-free.
The bottom line: $231.94 for 500 cards, printed 3-color with soy-based inks on one side, 100% post consumer recycled paper.
Plan Plan It Green Printing in L.A.: This small company in Eagle Rock's not a printer itself, but works with a few local printers to get your job done. Rob of Plan It Green made my friend Summer's cards, and she says she was happy with both the service and the product.
The bottom line: $425 for 500 cards (for just $25 more, you can get 1000 cards), printed 2-color on one side, 1-color on the back side with soy-based inks, 100% PCW paper.
Fugu Fugu Press in Pasadena: The big bonus with this company is that its a small, local letterpress shop. Their stuff is gorgeous -- I wrote about their recycled cards here -- and you can pick from 100% PCW to cotton paper. This eco-prettiness doesn't come cheap, however. Print jobs at this eco-boutique's best suited for designer-types who need one-of-a-kind, eye-catching, unique print jobs.
The bottom line: $450 for 500 cards, printed 2-color with soy-based inks on one side, PLUS $50 for the plates AND $10 per every 100 cards for the eco-paper of your choice."
