Abstract:
The present invention relates to an announcement device that incorporates a set of indicia that incorporates raised, custom graphics and text having a generally metallic appearance with a satin, a polished, or a highly polished surface finish. The set of indicia includes an adhesive backing for mounting onto paper, cardstock, and solid materials like Plexiglas, wood, stone, and metal. The raised, metallic graphics provide a vivid visual image of reflected metal, and the difference in height between the raised metallic graphics and the mounting surface provide a unique tactile characteristic without the use of typical embossing, debossing, or foil application techniques. The set of indicia can include pictorial graphics, text, images, communicating marks, or illustrative marks that communicate information related to events like weddings, social events, religious events, business applications, or family events.
