Here's a fresh twist on the classic Roll Fold—a flexible format that is always great for mail or invitations. From our friends at CJ Graphics Inc. in Mississauga, Ontario, and designed by The White Room, this stylish "Massive" 7-panel roll fold design emphasizes a huge facility expansion and fundraiser event.
Textured paper, simple die-cuts and a contemporary palette of 3 custom PMS colors makes this week's idea both stylish and accessible.
