BEHIND THE PEEL | Why doesn't my printed colour look like it did on screen? 🍊

It could be down to three little letters...

RGB.

RGB (Red, Green and Blue) is designed for screens. Because screens use light to create colour, they can display some wonderfully bright and vibrant shades.

Professional printing commonly uses CMYK – Cyan, Magenta, Yellow and Black – where colours are created using ink instead.

The problem?

Not every RGB colour can be reproduced exactly using CMYK.

So that wonderfully vibrant colour you chose on your monitor may look quite different once it's printed.

Preparing artwork for print isn't simply a case of pressing "Save as PDF". Colour settings, profiles and the intended printing process all need to be considered.

That's why Tangerine Creative always think about the finished product, not just what's on the screen.

After all, the whole point is making it tangible. 🍊

BEHIND THE PEEL | What's all this about bleed and crop marks? 🍊

If you're supplying artwork for professional printing, two little things can make a BIG difference to the finished result.

BLEED is the extra artwork extending beyond the finished edge. It allows the printer to trim your job cleanly without leaving unwanted white edges.

CROP MARKS tell the printer where that finished edge should be.

And don't forget, keep important text and logos safely away from the trim edge so they don't accidentally get cropped too!

It's the kind of technical detail you may never notice when it's done properly... but you certainly notice when it isn't.

If you've created your own artwork and are not sure whether it's genuinely print-ready, send it over.

We'll happily help you get it ready for production.

Another new website has gone live!

Tangerine Creative is proud to have worked with local company Newall Plant Ltd on their new website.

Newall Plant is involved in some impressive infrastructure, construction and groundworks projects across Norfolk and beyond, so their online presence needed to reflect the scale and quality of the work they undertake.

Strong project photography, clear information and a much stronger showcase of their capabilities now give prospective customers a real insight into the business behind the name.

Because a good website shouldn't just tell people what you do.

It should show them what you're capable of.

Too early to mention Christmas?

Maybe... but when it comes to print, a little forward planning goes a long way.

Now is a great time to start thinking about your seasonal print for the end of 2026 and the start of 2027.

Branded calendars and wall planners can keep your business in front of customers all year round, while professionally designed Christmas cards offer a much more personal way to thank clients, customers and suppliers for their support.

What about gift vouchers, festive menus, invitations, promotional gifts, desk planners or anything else your business might need over the Christmas and New Year period?

At Tangerine Creative, we can take care of the whole process, from the initial idea and design through to sourcing, print and delivery.

So, no... we're not putting the Christmas tree up just yet.
We're simply planning ahead.

Got something seasonal in mind? Let's make it tangible. 🍊

BEHIND THE PEEL | Created something brilliant with AI?

I'm seeing more clients experimenting with AI tools and creating their own designs, illustrations and ideas, and I'm all for it.

But something that looks fantastic on your screen isn't necessarily ready to send straight to a printer.

What happens to the quality of the image when you want that AI creation on a brochure, banner, exhibition display, vehicle graphic or large sign?

That's where Tangerine Creative can help.

We can check your artwork and, where necessary, prepare, recreate or vectorise it so it's suitable for professional production at the size you need, while maintaining the quality you're expecting.

So don't be afraid to bring us something you've created using AI.

You bring the idea. We'll help make it tangible. 🍊

🍊 THE JUICE | Does print still matter in a digital world?

Absolutely.

We're surrounded by emails, social media posts and online advertising every day, which is exactly why something physical can sometimes make such an impact.

A great brochure gets kept.
A calendar can stay on a wall for 12 months.
A business card sits on a desk.
A thoughtfully designed card arriving through the post feels personal.

Print and digital don't need to compete. Some of the strongest marketing comes from using them together, with consistent branding connecting everything.

After more than 30 years in design and marketing, I've seen technology transform our industry, but I still believe there's something special about turning a creative idea into something you can actually hold.

We might even have a phrase for that...

We love seeing our clients receive the recognition they deserve.

Having worked with Suzanne and the team at Dereham Podiatry Practice and, more recently, Bloomfield Clinic, it’s been exciting to see their continued development and commitment to improving patient care.

To see Suzanne now named as one of just four finalists for the Lifetime Achievement Award at the Gait and Motion Clinics Awards 2026 is fantastic news.

A very well-deserved recognition of years of experience, dedication and a genuine passion for helping people.

Congratulations Suzanne – we’ll be keeping everything crossed for Birmingham!

Some fantastic news from Bloomfield Clinic!

We are delighted to share that Suzanne Clipson has been named as one of just four finalists for the Lifetime Achievement Award at the Gait and Motion Technology Clinics Awards 2026.

More than 250 nominations were received across the six award categories, making this a wonderful recognition of Suzanne's many years of dedication to patient care, innovation and helping people reduce pain and improve their movement.

The timing couldn't be more fitting as Suzanne continues to develop the specialist gait analysis and biomechanics services at Bloomfield Clinic using advanced Run3D technology.

The winner will be announced at the National Conference at the NEC Birmingham on 9 October – but being selected as one of only four finalists is already an achievement to be incredibly proud of.

Congratulations Suzanne!
