The Awards were    hosted by the Print Services and Distribution Association    (PSDA).  <\/p><p>    The card was printed for Nordstrom, and was designed by fashion    designer Ruben Toledo. Travel Tags' production experts came up    with a construction that made the artwork come to life. The    card was constructed in a unique manner using a right read,    wrong read technique with foil attached to the back. It allows    the card to have a 3D feel and a good sense of depth without    having to use a 3D lenticular lens. It also gives the    cardholder the illusion of blades of grass swaying in the wind.  <\/p><p>    \"When you're in this business, you see a lot of great-looking    cards ... but every now and then, there's one that really    stands out as 'special.' This was one of those cards. The    moment it came off press, we were all smiles and knew that the    Blades of Grass Gift Card was going to be a memorable design.    It was a lot of fun working through the design concepts with    our customer and creating a construction that would enhance    their design. We were all so pleased with how this one came    out,\" said Jodi Belden, Sales Representative at Travel Tags,    Inc.  <\/p><p>    Image: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ereleases.com\/pic\/2012-Blades-of-Grass-Gift-Card.jpg\" rel=\"nofollow\">http:\/\/www.ereleases.com\/pic\/2012-Blades-of-Grass-Gift-Card.jpg<\/a>  <\/p><p>    The PEAK Awards is a prestigious competition that honors the    work of print professionals who have met their customers'    printing needs by providing outstanding value-added products    and services through creativity in design, production,    fulfillment and other services while solving problems or    improving business functions.  <\/p><p>    ABOUT TRAVEL TAGS, INC.  <\/p><p>    Travel Tags, Inc. is a world leader in developing and    delivering unique and innovative solutions centered around card    printing, personalization and fulfillment, specialty and    dimensional printing.
