Silk business cards are relatively new and have been quite expensive in the resent past
. Now you can find them on select websites for as low as $79 for 1000 cards. They're well worth it too. You can also add a spot gloss uv finish to it as well, also known as a spot varnish. What this does is place a high gloss finish directly on top of only selected areas you choose on the card. This can be something like your logo or a word or image you want to highlight. With double sided, full color printing and the advantage of a fine, silk laminated business card, a spot gloss would simply take your card right over the top. Silk laminated business cards are the perfect, affordable upgrade for 2010. In comparison to the standard 12pt, 14pt and 16pt card stocks used for the business cards of today, silk laminated business cards feel more like the 18pt silky smooth business cards of tomorrow.
With today's growing technology market some say that the business card will come to an end. Using smart phones to exchange information instead of handing out a card doesn't have that personal touch nor the physical connection of who the person is. With the look and feel of all the new card stocks and finishes available on the market, bumping phones just doesn't seem to be such a great idea. A flimsy business card is like a flimsy handshake. What's there to say about someone who doesn't even have a business card?
