Question

Can I add foil stamping or spot UV to a soft touch card?

Answer

You can add foil stamping to a soft touch card with excellent results, since the contrast between metallic foil and velvety matte paper is genuinely striking. Spot UV is a bit more nuanced because the soft touch surface is uncoated.

  • Foil stamping - works beautifully, the metallic shine pops against the matte texture
  • Spot UV - possible but trickier, since adhesion differs on an uncoated surface
  • Stock thickness - available finish combinations can vary with the card's weight

For your specific stock and finish pairing, check with the support team through the Help Center to confirm what is available before you finalize the design.
