Adding Spot UV and Foiling to Your Business Cards
Spot UV Guide
Spot UV allows you to add ultra high gloss to specific areas of your design, like your logo, giving your business cards a premium look and feel, and allowing you to get more creative with your design. We use spot UV on the colourful spots on our business card as well as our logo to really show it off!
If you’d like to add this effect for your own business card design, it’s very simple to do! Just follow our step-by-step guide here.
Free Spot UV Templates
Alternatively, you can use our free spot UV business card templates. Simply download the pattern you want to apply to your business card design and upload it, along with your design, at the basket. You can find all of our spot UV templates, and more info on how to use them, here.
Foiling Guide
The foiling finishing technique allows you to add gold, silver, copper, green or red metallic foil to specific areas of your business card, like your logo. Here’s an easy guide for setting up foiling business card artwork.
