Warm, brilliant and unmistakably luxurious, this Real Gold 12×12 double-sided shimmer card from GF Smith's Peregrina Majestic range carries a true metallic gold shimmer on both sides. At 290gsm it has the weight and rigidity for premium card making, die cutting, and statement stationery — while the intense pearlescent finish catches the light beautifully and elevates any project it touches. The generous 12″ × 12″ (305mm × 305mm) format gives you significantly more working space than standard A4, making it a favourite for wedding stationers, scrapbookers, and designers who want real metallic impact.

Printer Compatibility

This card is printable at 290gsm on inkjet and laser printers that support heavyweight card. The 12″ × 12″ format requires a wide-format or A3+ printer that accepts 305mm-wide media — standard A4-only printers cannot accommodate this width. Always check your printer's maximum supported paper weight before ordering. Dark inks print with excellent contrast against the gold shimmer. For best results, use a manual or rear feed tray, select a Heavyweight Card or Photo Paper setting at Best/High Quality, and allow inkjet ink to dry fully before handling.
