    horton, good call about trying to eliminate the spot color. my concern would be that if i printed in CMYK that the card background color would look all grainy/pixelated instead of a nice flat color. what are your thoughts?

    and if your worried about the background looking grainy, a 1C job is going to do exactly that!

    your background is going to be a screen (50%) of the dark color.. which will be grainy/ halftoned.

    do it 2C.. a dark for CAT and a mid for the background flood and from that screen out the light.
