On the phone customers often ask what is StarMarque. This is the name we give to a gloss varnish that we can apply to our business cards, flyers, booklets and presentation folders. This type of finish is also known as Spot UV or UV Coating. It's basically a way to add an extra finish to your marketing material to make it really stand out. It can be applied in a variety of ways, just like a colour, and we've got tuns of examples in the studio to get your ideas flowing.
The above example is a business card we did for the award winning Southampton author Ali Sparkes. The design is the cover of her book "Dark Summer". We added a StarMarque finish to emphasise the rays of light emanating from the crystal. This added a real impact to Ali's card, but I'm not sure my two photos show how good it really looks!
Ali says "The cards cause murmurs of awe every time I hand one over!"
