I wanted to create a multi layered Vid Phon Card as close to the original as I could which would be hard wearing and one where the gold would not wear off as the gold foil is under the top layer, I think I have succeeded and I'm pleased with the end result!

The original card




The 3 parts of my card



Applied gold foil to the centre of the red circle



Applied thick top vinyl positive print



Trimmed edges with sharp blade



Pleased Very Happy

Hi TheTimeRanger

I re-created the artwork myself, the card is printed with a card printer.

I could probably make you one if you wanted? I just have a slight printer problem at the moment though, in the process of fixing it.

Nice job! Smile I tried this once and it turned out pretty good. I think I still have some spare reflective gold foil laying around.

Oh Wow! Thank you so much, would you do that? How much do you want for it? I'm amazed, it looks really really good Smile

Another questions though, after browsing around here, I see a lot of people making the different cards and ID badges, where are they all finding the right font, high-resolution logos etc? Does it even exist?
