2. Metallic Foil Stamp
Need more shine? Go for metallic foil stamping. It is one of the most popular if not a must for certificate printing. Highlight certain parts on your certificate with foil stamping to add the necessary shine to make it look expensive and outstanding.
Foil stamping gives a more pronounced sheen compared to metallic ink that makes it glimmer even from a distance. You can’t miss out on this one because it truly upgrades the look of your certificate.
3. Metallic Ink
Metallic ink is not much different from the foil stamping in terms of results. However, the metallic ink does not give much of a luster compared to foil stamping. Still, it gets you the appearance that you want and the look resulted by metallic ink printing definitely creates an expensive and proper impression. Also, cost wise, the metallic ink is cheaper than the foil stamping method.
4. Paper
Definitely don’t skimp on the paper. Because a certificate needs to look expensive and proper, of course, you need to go for premium paper with high durability. Of course, it costs higher than the regular paper, but it is very important that you use one of the premium papers that are proper for certificate printing.
