As we celebrate the 50th anniversary year of Embossed Graphics, it’s a fitting time to reflect on enduring designs that have stood the test of time. Stationery still has a hold on people, even during the last 20 years of the new digital age. Let’s take a closer look at several designs that have proven their lasting appeal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Colonial Card<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

One of EG’s most iconic stationery designs is the Colonial Card \u2013 Raised Ink<\/a>. With its simple, two-lined border, elegant top-line personalization, and choice of 10 exclusive lettering styles, the Colonial Card has become synonymous with classic stationery. For decades, our customers have favored its timeless design. The high-quality paper and precision thermography are certainly part of it success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Banner Card<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Another enduring correspondence card is the Banner Card – Embossed<\/a>, offering minimalist design and crisp embossing. Its top-line personalization in an all-capital, serif font, and upper\/lower horizontal lines make it instantly recognizable. The Banner Card’s combination of style and classic functionality has made it a favorite among customers seeking timeless design that harks to the heyday of personalized stationery. Love a sans-serif font? Explore the Banner Card’s close cousin, the Corridor Card – Embossed<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Casual Card<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Casual Card \u2013 Raised Ink<\/a>, with its distinctive two-line personalization, is another stationery classic. Known for its thoughtful design–the bottom line personalization is slightly smaller than the top line — the Casual Card has been a staple in Embossed Graphics’ portfolio for decades. Many customers personalize the bottom line with an address; others with a quote or motto. Either way, there’s nothing flippant about this card. It’s functional, straightforward and adaptable. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Featuring impeccable embossing, this monogrammed design exudes luxury and sophistication. With 5 timeless monogram choices, this folded note is a preferred choice for thank-you notes, personal letters and much more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
