Can I add foil accents or embossed gloss to these cards?

Unfortunately, you can’t add special finishes to the special material we use for soft touch finish business cards.

What’s a good comparison for the way soft touch feels?

Most customers say the card surface feels like velvet or suede. It also has a smooth, matte finish.

Can you write notes on velvet business cards?

Yes, but a regular ballpoint pen won’t work very well. We recommend using a permanent marker pen for the best results.
