Research Of Business Card

For the business card I want it same theme with my portfolio, because of that I just come with the idea as painter card. The reason I choose that theme is, I want it look one family. And for the technique that I will apply on my business card is hot stamp and the paper that I will use is vein paper. The reason I choose the paper is I want have some texture on my business card and people can touch and feel it. On my business card i plan to play with different color but I can’t do that because I using hot stamping and it should be one color only, because it using block to do the hot stamping. Because of that, I choose brown color.

Below is my research for business card :-

A combination of heat, dwell time, pressure and stripping time control the quality of the stamp. It can apply many different colors of foil on the same cards. It also can combine an embossing and a hot stamping for a nice 3d metallic effect. Hot stamping Business Card offers unique & prestigious look that will make the card stand out among the competition.
