Embossed

If you just tapped a card to get here, the thing in your hand is 400gsm card stock run through the press, so the design stands up out of the surface, or sinks into it, your choice. A microchip with an antenna is laminated inside, same as the flat card.

How it gets made

Pressed on my Cricut. The machine pushes your design into the card in relief, raised or sunk, and it works with no ink at all if you want it quiet.

Price

20

Canadian dollars, plus HST. Made to order, two weeks from the day you approve the artwork.

What the price includes

The embossing or debossing, printing if you want ink as well, every tag encoded, and the link set up. Artwork comes from your logo file if you have one. If you do not, I set it from scratch and you approve a proof before anything gets pressed.

If your number changes

The link inside the card can be changed later, at no cost. New phone number, new menu, new Instagram; I re-point the link and every card you have already handed out follows it. Nothing gets repressed.

Designs

Starting points, shown with my own name on them. Yours carries your name, your logo, your colours.

Embossed design: black card, kanji raised in blind relief, a red hanko seal in the corner
Embossed design: white card, name printed in indigo with the kanji pressed in relief Embossed design: indigo card, kanji raised tone on tone Embossed design: cream card, nothing but the name pressed in relief

Blind embossing uses no ink at all. The card reads by fingertip, even in the dark.
