Soft Touch Lamination
A thin protective film adds a smooth, velvety feel and a matte surface that contrasts with the raised gloss.

Raised Gloss Emboss
Clear UV coating builds up over selected elements, giving the yellow lettering and wave pattern shine, depth and texture.

Gloss Emboss Business Card FAQs
What is gloss emboss?
Gloss emboss uses clear raised UV coating to build a glossy texture on selected areas of the card. It creates a raised effect without pressing the design into the paper.
How is raised UV different from regular spot UV?
Regular spot UV adds a glossy finish with little noticeable height. Raised UV builds up above the surface, creating a texture you can feel.
Can I add gloss emboss to both sides?
Yes. Select One Side or Both Sides in the Gloss Emboss dropdown. The quantity menu shows the price for your selected size and finish.
What should I highlight with raised gloss?
Logos, larger text and decorative patterns work well. Avoid relying on very small text or fine details for the raised effect. We can help review your artwork.
