Raised Foil Cards 19pt - Clubcard Printing Canada

Pump it up until you can feel it! Raised foil business cards and postcards at Clubcard are printed on suede laminated card stock with your choice of metallic silver, gold or iridescent foil that is plumped up to create a 3D effect.

Your raised foil cards provide stimulation of sight and touch, ensuring full sensory engagement during the very important ritual of the business card exchange.

WE NOW OFFER FREE UPS GROUND SHIPPING ON THESE CARDS

The process of creating your raised foil cards begins with printing your full colour art on 16pt card stock that is covered on both sides with 1.5mil scuff-resistant soft velvet lamination to create a substantial 19pt thick card. The last step in the process is adding the raised foil elements to your cards, which is a great way to highlight your logo and vital elements or abstract patterns.

Coatings Make The Colour Vary

Colours under suede lamination will appear slightly muted and may alter the final result. (Even 100% K will appear somewhat charcoal in colour.) Colour matching of artwork is not suited to this product.

What is the difference between Foil Stamping and Raised Foil

Foil Stamping has a flat finish foil whereas Raised Foil has a raised foil finish. If you run your fingers over the card you will feel the foil. Ask us for a sample to see and feel the difference for yourself!

Fine Details Don't Translate Well To Raised Foil

Due to the nature of the raised foil application fine details may expand and fill in unexpectedly. If the foil layer includes a lot of fine detail, tight corners, etc., the foil will result in some filling in, especially at smaller sizes. We do not recommend having fonts smaller than 10pt on the Raised Foil Artwork. If you use fonts with thicker strokes or bold fonts, we do not recommend having fonts smaller than 12pt. Make sure that raised foil designs are as simple and large as possible.

Not For Large Areas Of Foil Coverage

For best results, please make sure that foil coverage is less than 50%. Otherwise, the foil will be wavy and won’t look good. The only time a 50-75% coverage is acceptable is with patterns, thin strokes or small shapes.

Can I have any printing under the raised foil?

We highly recommend having a solid colour behind the foil mask. Elements under the foil mask might be visible through the foil after application.

Knockouts Are Not Recommended

Knockouts are not recommended since there may be a shift (up to 1/16”) when the foil is applied.

Foil Layer Must Be Supplied As Vector

For this finishing method, the mask file must be a vector file created in vector-based programs such as Illustrator.
