Description

Raised spot uv business cards are printed in full color with spot gloss accents applied to any text or design element of your choosing.

These are printed on a matte 20 pt suede / soft / velvet laminated paper stock which gives a perfect contrast to the raised spot gloss.

These are a great alternative to thermography, which is traditionally used to create a raised ink effect.
