It’s time to tell your dad a corny joke for a change. This year’s Father’s Day cards feature hilariously cheesy #dadjokes. With bright contrast foils printed on top of assorted Color Plan paper stocks, these cards are sure to make your dad crack a smile even if the joke can’t (which it will because… it’s a dad joke).

It's been a pleasure to have worked with so many of you and bring life to your projects and share in the wonderful tactile quality of letterpress!
Our roots have always been in marrying good design with equally matched production. However, it's time to put Workhorse second, and as the place we always wanted it to be: our own private press in which we can tinker, play, and experiment with un-ordinary ideas through the craft of print.
We are grateful to have been your print partner for the last 10 years, but now we must bid adieu and dedicate ourselves to our true passion: running our branding and design studio Field of Study. We sincerely thank our family, friends, and colleagues for all your past and continued support to help make Workhorse what it is.
We'll be updating the Workhorse site to reflect our transition over the coming months. Until then, for inquiries on special projects or collaborations, reach out to us at Field of Study.
