Custom matt laminated cards combine personalized artwork with a matt laminated finish, making them a practical choice when the printed design matters. Instead of a standard card with a basic printed surface, lamination adds another finishing element to the finished piece.

The product is especially useful for projects where the card itself forms part of the presentation. Businesses, organizations, event teams, schools, clubs, and promotional campaigns can prepare artwork containing the information and visual elements required for their specific application.

RAFFLESTAG provides two card stock choices—260 GSM and 310 GSM—so buyers can select between the available paper weights when configuring an order.

Choose Between 260 GSM and 310 GSM

Card stock weight is one of the main choices available for this product. The ordering page provides 260 GSM and 310 GSM options, with 260 GSM shown as the selected option.

This choice lets buyers match available stock to the type of card they are creating. When preparing an order, consider how you'll handle, distribute, display, or include the finished cards with other printed materials.

For projects that require a different card format altogether, RAFFLESTAG also offers custom PVC cards. PVC cards are a separate product with multiple size and finishing choices, making them worth considering when a plastic card format better matches the application. Raffle Stag

Build the Card Around Your Own Artwork

The matte laminated card is designed around customer-supplied artwork. Rather than limiting the order to a fixed template shown in the gallery, you can upload artwork for your particular project.

This makes the product adaptable to different visual identities and purposes. You can prepare your artwork around your company branding, campaign theme, event graphics, product information, or another card design appropriate to the project.

The page provides a dedicated Upload Artwork area, simplifying the transition from card selection to customization.

Artwork Uploads Up to 10 MB

Uploaded artwork may be up to 10 MB. Keep this limit in mind when preparing the design to prevent unnecessary file-size issues during ordering.

Before uploading, review the artwork content carefully. Check names, dates, contact information, promotional messages, logos, spelling, and other important details included in the design. This is particularly useful when one design will be reproduced across an entire quantity of cards.

The order page also includes an order notes field. Buyers can use this area to provide relevant instructions associated with their order.

A Useful Format for Branded and Promotional Designs

The gallery demonstrates how a matt laminated card can carry colorful custom artwork, including designs with illustrations and typography. This flexibility makes the format useful when the printed piece needs to communicate both visual branding and information.

Depending on your artwork, a card can incorporate elements such as a logo, campaign identity, headline, supporting text, illustrations, or other graphics.

For buyers developing a coordinated print campaign, RAFFLESTAG's custom sticker collection provides another way to reproduce branded artwork in formats such as kiss-cut, die-cut, multiple-design sheet, laptop, and transparent vinyl stickers.

Selecting the Card Stock for Your Project

Because both 260 GSM and 310 GSM are available, you can consider stock early in the artwork and ordering process.

Think about how the cards will be used. A card handed directly to recipients may have different requirements from one inserted into another package or included with event materials. The available stock options give buyers a straightforward choice without changing the fundamental custom design process.

Treat card weight as part of the overall presentation rather than an isolated specification.

Plan the Design for the Finished Card

Matt lamination is part of the finished visual presentation, so evaluate artwork as a complete composition rather than uploading individual graphics.

Keep the most important information easy to identify. Logos, headlines, illustrations, and supporting text should have a clear hierarchy so recipients can quickly understand the card's purpose.

If you include several different pieces of information, avoid making every element compete for equal attention. A well-organized design usually makes the finished custom card easier to use.

Coordinate Cards With Other Printed Materials

Matt laminated cards can also form part of a broader set of printed materials for a campaign, organization, or event.

For example, an event may require cards alongside stickers, identification products, tickets, or informational materials. Keeping logos, typography, and core graphics consistent across these pieces can help create a more unified presentation.

Organizations running prize draws or fundraising activities can pair supporting printed pieces with RAFFLESTAG's custom raffle tickets, which are designed specifically for raffle applications. 

For identification-focused projects, the lanyard and card collection includes related card and ID-display products for offices, schools, events, and other organizations. 

A Straightforward Custom Ordering Process

The visible customization process keeps the main choices focused. Enter the required quantity, select either 260 GSM or 310 GSM, upload your artwork, and provide any relevant order notes.

This setup is particularly convenient for buyers who already have finished artwork prepared and want to submit it directly rather than rebuilding the design during product configuration.

Before completing the customization, review the selected card stock and uploaded artwork together. Checking these elements together helps ensure the submitted order reflects the intended card configuration.
