The front features the calendar images, while the back is kraft-colored. With a thickness of 100g, the increased paper weight adds to its refined texture. *Screen Printing| The characteristic of screen printing is that each color requires a separate screen. Ink is applied through fine mesh, creating subtle dot patterns within color blocks. This method is similar to silkscreening and printmaking. The printing uses semi-water-based soy ink, with each color printed individually. This results in a slight misalignment effect in the presentation, where colors are not perfectly uniform. In areas where inks overlap, there's a subtle blending, yet this is precisely what creates the unique appearance of each artwork. *Hanging Cord Usage| When flipping pages, you can thread the calendar pages through the hanging cord to keep the entire book intact, or tear off each page along the perforated lines for individual preservation. *Photography Location Support|Dulan ZuDuLan / XiangCun Naked Soap /
