  • Publication number: 20170368868
    Abstract: The card comprises a first translucent or transparent substrate layer, preferably in PVC, and a second substrate layer, and a cracked layer of ink between the two substrate layers so as to allow the second substrate layer to show through the cracks of the layer of ink. The cracked layer of printing ink comprises mirror-effect ink, that reflects light through the first translucent or transparent substrate layer. The cracking of the layer of ink is achieved when the card is manufactured by laminating it.
