Raised Foil Postcards – Metallic Shine with Dimensional Impact
Raised foil postcards combine the brilliance of metallic foil with a tactile, three-dimensional finish you can see and feel. Unlike traditional flat foil stamping, raised foil sits above the surface of the paper, creating depth, texture, and a bold visual presence that immediately elevates your design.
If you want maximum impact with a luxury feel, raised foil delivers shine and dimension in one striking finish.
What Are Raised Foil Postcards?
Raised foil postcards are produced using a specialty process that applies metallic foil in a raised layer on top of the printed surface. The foil is not pressed into the paper like traditional foil stamping; instead, it creates a smooth, elevated texture that adds both shine and physical depth.
This technique allows foil elements to stand out dramatically while maintaining crisp edges and clean detail.

- Dimensional metallic effect: Raised foil adds depth you can feel.
- High visual impact: Reflective foil catches light from every angle.

Raised Foil vs. Standard Foil Stamping
Standard foil stamping presses foil into the paper, creating a flat metallic impression. Raised foil sits on top of the paper, creating a smooth, elevated surface with more depth and texture.
For projects that need both shine and physical dimension, raised foil is the more dramatic upgrade.
Design Tips for Raised Foil
- Use raised foil on logos, headlines, or key accents
