Techniques
Pochoir registration drift
The colour fill sits a hair off the black key-line, mimicking hand-stencilled mis-registration.
.pochoir {
position: relative;
color: #1A1A17; /* the woodblock key-line */
background: #1F3A6B;
}
.pochoir::before {
content: "";
position: absolute;
inset: 0;
background: #C0392B; /* the flat stencil colour */
transform: translate(2px, 1.5px); /* the drift */
mix-blend-mode: multiply;
z-index: -1;
}
Woodblock key-line frame
A bold black outline with an inset double-rule, the card cartouche border.
.card-cartouche {
border: 2px solid #1A1A17;
box-shadow:
inset 0 0 0 3px #1F3A6B,
inset 0 0 0 4px #1A1A17, /* inner double rule */
4px 5px 0 rgba(26,26,23,0.55); /* hard ink offset */
background: #264785;
border-radius: 2px;
}
Flat stencil field
Strictly unshaded colour blocks — guards against gradients sneaking in.
.stencil-field {
background: #E1A95F; /* one flat ochre pass */
background-image: none; /* never a gradient */
color: #1A1A17;
border: 2px solid #1A1A17;
box-shadow: none; /* no soft shading */
}
