Design Guidelines for Velvet + Raised Foil Cards
-
Include a Raised Foil Mask File – Use a vector mask with 100% black to mark where foil should appear. Avoid shadows or fades.
-
Limit Foil Coverage – Keep foil areas under 30% of the card to avoid wavy textures.
-
Maintain Clean Texture – Avoid placing images or fine text under foil due to potential registration shifts.
-
Use Bold Fonts Over 12pt – For foiled zones, ensure typography is bold and legible.
-
Contrast Colors Thoughtfully – Darker backgrounds enrich foil highlights; plan your color palette accordingly.
