I took the same idea for my business cards last year and changed the colour scheme to my new palette. I wanted to emboss the logo on the other side due to the stock being a really nice texture and appearance. I wasn't sure how to do this as it wasn't majorly successful or consistent last year.
I went down to Vernon to speak to the tech team so I could do it properly. He suggested laser cutting it instead of copper plating due the fact I wanted the emboss to dent into the stock and not raise above it.
I therefore asked him how would be best to laser cut the sheet. He said a multiple of a few would be best on one spread to stop me from having to do each one individually. Then he told me I would have to raster away the space that wasn't the symbol so that the symbol would stay raised on the wood. He also said that if I didn't want and edge then I needed to create the raster space bigger than the card size.
Material wise he said no thicker than 3mm mdf and to raster 1mm into the wood.
