Precision Print Results in Award-Winning Event Materials

Graphic Media Alliance Print Excellence Awards Bronze Winner

When Creatives on Call® needed high-quality, precision-cut event materials for their client, they turned to Evolution creative solutions. The resulting visually striking event materials earned Bronze from the Graphic Media Alliance 2025 Print Excellence Awards—a testament to Evolution creative solutions‘ precision printing and finishing expertise.

The Business Challenge

Creatives on Call provided a sleek black-and-white graphic design for round placemats and table numbers. The materials needed to be visually impactful, precisely cut, and scored for a professional, high-end appearance.

The production had several key requirements:

  • Select high-quality paper for a premium feel.
  • Achieve precision cutting to maintain the integrity of the circular design.
  • Score the table numbers to allow for easy folding.

With event deadlines in place and a high standard for quality, Evolution creative solutions had to deliver flawless results while maximizing efficiency.

Evolution’s Creative Solution

To meet the project’s needs, Evolution creative solutions utilized digital printing for crisp, high-contrast reproduction of the black-and-white graphics. Glossy cover stock provided a sturdy yet elegant base.

Instead of traditional die cutting, which can be costly for short runs, laser cutting was chosen as a more cost-effective solution for intricate, custom-shaped cuts with exact precision. 

The finished placemats and table numbers added an elegant and polished touch to the event. Their bold black-and-white design, precision cutting, and high-quality printing made them a standout feature at the venue.

By focusing on efficiency, cost-effectiveness, and high-quality production, Evolution creative solutions delivered an winning solution that impressed the client and earned industry recognition.
