Card with removable and reusable insert

Abstract

Abstract A printed card, tag or the like with a reuseable printed multicolored emblem forming a part thereof is provided. The card, tag or the like is provided with a sheet member which forms at least a part of the card, tag or the like. A face of the sheet member is printed with a design. The printed face is provided with a reduced adhesive bonding ability surface, which may be provided by a silicone coating. A multicolored embroidered emblem is releasable attached to the face of the sheet. The design of the multicolored embroidered emblem forms an integral part of the pattern printed on the face. The multicolored embroidered emblem is constructed of embroidery threads of a single color to form a pattern having a sculptured effect on the face thereof created at least in part by varying the direction and number of thread stitches in various locations of the embroidered emblem. The multicolor pattern is printed on the embroidered emblem with different colors of the pattern being in registry with selected portions of the sculptured pattern. A layer of thermoplastic adhesive is provided on the back side of the embroidered emblem. In practice, a sheet member with the multicolored embroidered emblem thereon may be transferred to a recipient, such as in the form of a greeting card or a tag on a toy, and the recipient may remove the multicolored embroidered emblem and apply it to an article of clothing or the like by means of the layer of thermoplastic adhesive by the application of heat and/or pressure.
