When someone tells you business cards are outdated, it usually means they haven’t seen a Metro Nova Creative card.
We recently had the chance to design and print some standout Velvet Spot Gloss business cards for our friends at C&L Junk Removal—and they are absolutely killer.
Why Velvet Spot Gloss?
Let’s start with the feel. These cards are printed on 16pt premium cardstock with a silk velvet lamination that feels like soft lamb’s ear—yeah, really. It’s the kind of texture that instantly communicates quality. But then we added the spot gloss magic—strategically placing shine on parts of the logo to make certain design elements literally pop off the card.
It’s tactile. It’s visual. It’s memorable.
Why It Matters
A business card isn’t just a piece of paper—it’s a physical extension of your brand. When a card feels premium, the person receiving it feels the effort and investment behind your business. That cheap flimsy card you got from an online print house? It gets tossed. This one? It gets kept, talked about, and sometimes even shown to a friend.
We always tell clients: “Give three. One to keep, one to lose, one to give a friend.” Because that’s how real brand presence spreads—in the real world, hand to hand.
So no, business cards aren’t dead. Bad business cards are.
With a design and print partner who understands your brand, you can create something people want to hold onto—and remember.
