Magenta Ink! has gained recognition from ‘The Good Web Guide‘, the definitive guide to the best online shopping sites on the web.
Take a look at the review!
“Good quality stationery is surprisingly hard to come by without paying a visit to Bond Street, so it’s great to find a company like Magenta Ink! supplying a whole range online, as well as from its shop north of the border in Edinburgh.
ELEGANT & DIVERSE RANGE
This is a simply laid out and elegantly designed website, which showcases an extensive collection of bespoke and off-the-shelf stationery options. From stylish note cards, stylized notepaper and business cards to wedding invitations, quality printed correspondence and designer greeting cards – it is great fun browsing through the ranges, which are all beautifully photographed. The Magenta Ink! leather range, uses fine Moroccan leather in a variety of colours, combined with gold detailing of pages within the guest books, diaries and journals. There is also a comprehensive range of Christmas gifts and cards as well as a stylish gift wrapping service.

Following on from our successful brand development project with JCI Leeds, in which Creative State developed an individual identity for the organisation that was in keeping within their international branding, they approached us to develop a brand for the JCI UK National Conference, which they are hosting this year.
The branding for the conference was to remain in keeping with the style we’ve created across the organisation’s literature design, and our main task was to successfully encapsulate the concept of creativity and leadership, the theme for this year’s event.
