BUSINESS CARD SHEET CONSTRUCTION AND METHODS OF MAKING AND USING SAME

摘要

Ultraremovable adhesive is applied to a paper sheet to form therewith a liner sheet, and the liner sheet (844) is laminated to a cardstock sheet (836) to form a laminate cardstock. The cardstock sheet is then die cut therethrough (840), but not through the liner sheet, to form cardstock cut lines that define at least in part perimeters of business cards (or other printable media). The outer face of the liner sheet is then die cut therethrough, but not through the cardstock sheet, to form liner sheet strips on a back side of the cardstock sheet. Some of the strips define cover strips covering some of the cardstock cut lines, and others of the strips define waste strips. The waste strips are then matrix removed from the back of the cardstock sheet. According to a preferred (dry laminate) embodiment the only liner sheet die cut is parallel to the leading edge of the sheet and forms a narrow leading edge liner strip (864) which is removed. The resulting business card sheet construction is then fed through a printer or copier by the user and the desired indicia printed on the front sides of the business cards, while the cover strips hold the cards together as a unit sheet construction. After this printing operation, the printed cards are easily peeled off of the cover strips, ready for use. By designing the sheet construction to form the printed media with different sizes and shapes and by including optional scored fold lines, and/or additional flexibility cut lines or flexibility perforation lines, media aside from business cards, such as post cards and greeting cards, can be constructed.
