Cold foil is one of our most unique card stocks! All colors printed on Cold Foil have a metallic sheen and all white areas on the card will print silver.
- Cold foil printing adds a vibrant metallic finish to your business cards that will be sure to impress others. This shiny option combines silk lamination and metallic ink effects to create an artistic masterpiece with fine detail.
Cold foil stamping is a modern method that can be used to add custom holographic patterns onto the surface of cold foil cards. Foil decorating with a cold foil stamping process is a surefire way to differentiate your business cards and shine through the competition.
The cold foil process can be enhanced with Spot UV, Raised UV inks, embossing, or custom die cutting to create a custom business card that is truly memorable.
Notes about cold foiling business cards:
- 28pt card stock thickness
- Colors will be metallic and any white areas will be silver, unless specifically "white blocked" in the proof.
- "White Blocking" does not completely block out the foil. White areas will be slightly Ivory in color.
- Black Flood Backgrounds will not completely cover the foil paper and will have "silver specks" upon closer inspection that will be further mitigated by "white blocking". This is not very noticeable, as such does not usually affect the overall effect.
Important Note: These cards are not ideal for rush orders. If you need speedy business cards, please refer to "Express Business Cards".
Debossing is texture add on, created by pressing IN a portion of your design.
Embossing is texture add on, created by pressing OUT a portion of your design.
Laser Engraving is cutting a portion of your card out using laser technology to create intricate designs on a layer of your card, anywhere on your card.
Die Cutting is precision cutting to allow your card to be any shape you can think of.
Spot UV is a gloss type coating that is applied to only specific areas of your card to give it shine. Raised UV means it is raised in those specific areas, to give it a more obvious look and feel.
Colored edge is paint or foil that is added to the edges of your cards to give it a unique colored edge on all 4 sides.

Because these stocks are more absorbent, pen stays on the stock, but markers such as sharpies can bleed. Our coated paper stocks can also be written on with a few limitations. This includes our silk and suede stocks. These can be written on in a ballpoint pen or sharpie if given a few seconds to dry.
