Raised Above the Rest

Though it may not be apparent at first glance, once you feel the unique texture of raised print it is sure to make any card stand out from the rest.

Raised print has a matte finish that adds a new tactile/sensory aspect to your cards while keeping the visual effect minimal. Encourage further engagement with recipients to not just see— but feel the words and artwork on your card.

Subtly emphasize one element of your design or try on the whole thing. And it’s not just for business cards, try raised printing on invitations and postcards too!

• Matte finish with distinct raised texture
• Print in full color, white ink, or both!
