Velvet Laminated Greeting Cards: Luxurious Feel, Unforgettable Look
๐ฅ Soft to the Touch, Easy on the Eyes
Our Velvet Laminated Greeting Cards are the epitome of elegance. Starting with a sturdy 16pt stock base, we apply a 1.5mil soft velvet, scuff-resistant laminate to both sides, giving these cards a total thickness of 19pt. The result? A rich, velvety texture that softens colors, reduces contrast, and creates a muted, elegant appearance that’s as smooth as it is sophisticated.
๐ฅ Durable, Elegant, and Ready to Impress
These cards don’t just look good—they feel incredible. The velvet lamination adds a supple, luxurious touch while protecting your cards from scuffs and scratches. Whether you’re sending holiday wishes, wedding invitations, or heartfelt thank-yous, these cards exude sophistication and ensure your message is delivered in style.
๐ฅ Perfect for Special Occasions
The muted, softened colors of these velvet laminated cards make them ideal for any special occasion. The fold over design gives you plenty of space for your heartfelt message, while the velvety finish ensures your card will stand out from the rest—whether it’s on a mantel, a desk, or proudly displayed on the fridge.
