Travel Tags Brings Home the ICMA Elan Award for Best Gift Card of 2011

Wal-Mart Stained Glass CardMIAMI, FL – Travel Tags, Inc and Wal-Mart were honored at the 2012 ICMA Elan Awards for winning the award for “Best Gift Card of 2011” with the submission of their Stained Glass Manger gift card, at the ICMA EXPO in Miami, Florida on April 17, 2012.

The gift card was designed and printed for Wal-Mart for the 2011 Holiday season. It was a very successful attempt to replicate a stained glass window featuring the Nativity. The translucent ink effect used for the glass and raised black silkscreen layer between the window elements really helped to give the card a sense of depth and separation.

“Our team worked hard up front to come up with a manufacturing process that would make the Stained Glass Nativity card looks as much like stained glass as possible. It was fulfilling to not only see that the finished product looked better than expected, but that others in the industry felt the same by awarding it the Elan Award For Best Gift Card of 2011,” said Ryan Schreier, sales rep of Travel Tags.

The ICMA or International Card Manufacturers Association is a non-profit association of plastic card manufacturers and card services providers. They serve and promote the plastic card industry and its products.
