Custom Shapes

You can make your cards stand out from the others with its own unique shape! Nothing stands out from the crowd more than a uniquely shaped card. Customising the shape of your card to match the industry or branding of your business reinforces your brand and services even more.

Whatever shape you can think of, be it a house, t-shirt, cloud, you name it, we can print it.

Embossed

Embossing is a special finish in which cards are pressed with plates to add an indent into the card. This creates a unique tactile element to a card that stimulates your clients and customers at the tips of their fingers. When paired with a high quality textured board such as Vellum, these cards will look and feel fantastic.

Foil

Foil stamping creates a luxurious metallic finish that makes your card eye catching and memorable. It’s made by using heat and pressure to stamp a fine foil layer onto the card to create a metallic finish that can’t be achieved with regular ink. When used with a matt celloglazed card, the shiny foil stands out from the smooth backing to create a flashy, stunning and attention-grabbing business card.

Rounded Corners

Our rounded corner cards, available in either 5mm or 8mm radius cuts, provide a softer and more inviting look as well as making the cards easier to fit into wallet and purse card slots.

Spot UV

Spot UV is a low height gloss finish that can be applied in any shape, size and position on your card, and can be utilised to emphasize your logo or create stunning gloss highlights on its own. When contrasted on top of a matt celloglazed card, the Spot UV really stands out.

Varnish

Gloss varnish can be applied to spots or over the entire card, and adds a glossy effect that reflects light and grabs attention. When added to any card it enhances the cards appearance, makes images vibrant and catches the eye.

A brief history of business cards.

The original concept of the business card is believed to have originated in China sometime in the 15th century. The first cards were used as visiting cards designed to be handed to the doorman upon arrival. This meant the visitor or his footman wasn’t required to list his full and often lengthy title. This visiting card custom eventually made it to Europe in the 1600’s. The concept quickly flowed to the British Isles and was an instant success.

The Brits however quickly pressed it into service as what we know as a business card.  Simply designed cards with text and directions to the merchants premises as street numbers were not in use as yet. Strict etiquette was soon to follow with two very distinct cards.  The visiting card and the business card. Handing over a business card while on a social call was an unforgivable social gaff as this was reserved for debt collection. 

Eventually the visiting card died and the Business card took over.  Business card design has become an art in itself.  Die cut cards, shaped cards, textured business cards and intricately printed full colour business cards are everywhere. Today it remains an integral part of a business identity and the simplest form of advertising at our disposal.  It’s hard to imagine doing business today without one.
