Metallic Cards, Labels, Postcards and Tags
This collection gathers 23 products that get a metallic look in one of four ways: a metallic foil accent on the front, silver or gold metallic ink, a stamped metallic foil, or 26pt Metallic Pearl Ice stock. Formats run from 2 by 3.5 inch business cards and 2 by 6 inch bookmarks to postcards up to 6 by 11 inches, 2.125 by 5 inch bottle neck tags, labels, stickers, rack cards, sales sheets, invitations and greeting cards.
Four Ways to Get a Metallic Look
Foil accent. Metallic Business Cards, Postcards, Flyers, Labels, Stickers, Bookmarks, Hangtags and the other "Metallic" products print in full color on 16pt gloss cover or semi-gloss label stock and add a metallic foil accent on the front, with High Gloss UV coating.
Metallic ink. Metallic Ink Business Cards, Postcards, Hangtags and Stickers print PMS 877 silver or PMS 872 gold on its own or with full color, so the shine sits exactly where the artwork puts it.
Foil stamp. Metallic Foil Business Cards, Metallic Foil Postcards and Metallic Foil Hangtags stamp gold, silver, copper, rose gold and other foil colors onto the front, the back or both.
Pearl stock. Ultra Thick Metallic Pearl Business Cards, Invitations and Postcards print on 26pt Metallic Pearl Ice, a sheet with the shimmer in the paper itself.

Leaving Room for the Metal
Use the metallic element on a logo, a border or one line of type rather than the whole surface, and pick dark, saturated colors such as black, navy or burgundy around it for contrast. Thin, delicate fonts can get lost in a reflective area, so go bolder where the metal sits.

Metallic Printing FAQ
What is the difference between a foil accent and metallic ink?
A foil accent is a metallic foil layer added to the front of the printed piece. Metallic ink is a silver or gold PMS ink printed like any other color, which gives a softer sheen than foil.
Which metallic product suits a wine label?
Metallic Labels on semi-gloss label stock with a foil accent, or Metallic Bottle Neck Hang Tags at 2.125 by 5 inches for the neck of the bottle.
How to make metallic prints at home?
A desktop printer cannot lay metallic ink or foil. The closest home route is pearlescent paper printed normally, which shimmers wherever the sheet is left bare; for an even finish across a run, a commercial press is the practical answer.
