Custom Metallic Foil Greeting Cards (Specialty Greeting Cards)
Custom Metallic Foil Greeting Cards
Metallic foil greeting cards combine full-colour printing, matte lamination and raised gold or silver foil for a distinctive premium finish. The metallic details add both visual contrast and texture, making these cards especially well suited to festive, elegant and high-impact designs.
These custom foil greeting cards begin with 14pt C2S gloss stock, followed by a 2pt matte lamination layer, then raised metallic foil is applied to selected areas of the artwork.
14pt Stock + 2pt Lamination
Metallic foil greeting cards start with 14pt C2S gloss stock. After the CMYK artwork is printed, a matte lamination layer is applied, increasing the finished thickness of the card before the foil is added.
The matte laminated surface provides a smooth background that contrasts with the reflective metallic foil details.
Gold or Silver Foil
Metallic foil is available in gold or silver, allowing selected elements of the artwork to stand out with a reflective finish.
Foil works particularly well for logos, typography, borders, decorative details and other design elements that benefit from added contrast and shine.
Raised Foil Detail
The metallic foil is slightly raised from the laminated surface, adding a tactile element as well as reflective colour.
This raised finish gives selected design elements a more dimensional appearance and makes the foil noticeable both visually and by touch.
Why Choose Metallic Foil Greeting Cards?
Foil greeting cards are a strong choice when the design needs a premium accent beyond standard CMYK printing. The combination of matte lamination and reflective raised foil creates a clear contrast between soft and metallic surfaces.
With gold or silver foil, substantial laminated stock and tactile raised details, these greeting cards work especially well for holiday cards, invitations, announcements, thank-you cards and other designs where a more distinctive finish is desired.
