Turn your products into showstoppers with premium soft touch hang tags from Clubcard Vancouver. Printed on thick 22pt stock and finished with a smooth, velvety matte lamination, these hang tags feel as good as they look. One touch says quality, craftsmanship, and care.
At Clubcard Vancouver, we love making hang tags that go beyond basic. Our luxury hang tag printing includes a full lineup of eye-catching finishing options so you can create something truly unforgettable. Add foil stamping for sparkle, gilded foil edges for extra drama, embossing or debossing for texture, custom shape die cutting for personality, UV spot gloss for contrast, or painted edges for that final pop of colour.
Every hang tag is printed in full colour on an offset printing press using UV inks to deliver rich colour, crisp detail, and beautiful consistency. This premium process ensures your artwork looks sharp and polished from edge to edge.
Production Time Heads Up
Great things take time. Production timelines vary based on selected finishes and current schedules, so these hang tags are not recommended for rush or deadline sensitive projects. Once production begins, orders cannot be changed, sped up, or cancelled. If timing is critical, reach out before ordering!
Embossing and Debossing Notes
Embossed elements will create a matching debossed impression on the back of the hang tag. Debossed elements may show a subtle impression on the reverse side. Gilded foil edges are not available on hang tags that include embossed elements.
Please supply your die line file in Vector format. If you need help preparing your die line watch the tutorial video or select the option to have us create your die line for you.
The prices listed are for cards cut to simple custom shapes. If your cards require intricate cutting, we will need to provide a custom estimate. We will let you know if your die line requires a custom estimate during the file check process.
Foil is based on an estimated foil size of around 1" x 2". Full foil coverage, or borders that go around the edge of the card require a larger die and would need to be custom quoted for the additional die size.
With the foil stamping, you can expect some slight shifting throughout the print run between the CMYK and foil layers -- there may be up to 1/16" shift on the placement of the foil. Keep this in mind if you are trying to align foil with other printed artwork on the card. The areas where there is tight registration between the CMYK elements and foil elements may not turn out as expected.
Fine detail in foil stamped elements can fill in (the center of an "e" or "a" in small type, or fine detail in an image or complex logo).
During the die-cutting process, there will be a degree of shifting of the cut. A good design leaves a 1/8" critical margin inside the trim line to compensate for this shifting. Art that extends to the edge of the card requires a 1/8" bleed.
Any hole or interior shape that will die cut needs to be at least 1/8" in diameter. Say you were die cutting a letter U shape, the aperture in the U (the space between the two stems) must be at least 1/8". Small cut like this may not be strip away during cutting but a gentle tap will knock it out!
The upside of club-run printing is the shared savings, the downside is that we adjust colour globally to get the best overall colour for shared jobs. This means the colour of club-run printed items will vary through the run and will not match exactly on re-prints. Our Indigo printing service is better suited to colour critical work.
CMYK Process colours in the grey range and de-saturated images can shift in colour throughout the print run and may cause the greys to appear either cooler or warmer. For a neutral grey, we recommend converting all grey values and de-saturated images to true greyscale consisting of K (black) only values.
Due to the nature of club-run printing, you may experience colour variation in solid fills of blue. For great blue results, we recommend a 30% difference between your Cyan and Magenta levels to ensure a nice rich dark blue, rather than purple.
The die line must fit within the size ordered; for example if you order a 4" x 6" die cut card, your shape must fit within a 4" x 6" boundary.
Die Line: Supply a file that includes a vector path outline indicating the shape and size of your die cut card. Pricing is based on simple shape, so your die line should be as simple as possible or the order may be placed on hold to quote the complex die.
Foil Stamping | Embossing | Debossing | Spot UV Gloss: Include a separate file/artboard with these elements coloured in 100% black or a custom spot colour to denote each element. Alternatively, if you would like to include these elements in the same file, place each element on a separate layer in 100% black or a custom spot colour.
Emboss/Deboss: Include a separate file/artboard with these elements coloured with Pantone Black to denote the special finishing. Alternatively, if you would like to include these elements in the same file, place these elements on a separate layer and coloured with a Pantone colour (typically Pantone Black) that denotes the Foil Stamping.
Spot Gloss: Include a separate file/artboard with these elements coloured with Pantone Black to denote the special finishing.
