DEbossed business cards?
« on: September 18, 2013, 01:03:15 PM »
Any sources? Looking for a matte business card (thin stock) with debossing. I am finding embossed cards but not the other way.

The keyword is "letterpress" when looking for guys who do this sort of thing.  Most shops that focus on stuff like invitations will have the proper equipment.  It's kind of a trendy thing here in Austin these days to buy up old letterpress stuff.

Yea, it can be.  That's why it is usually reserved for invitations and the like, not business cards.  Great effect though.
