Ugh, I’ve spent hours trying to mock up a client’s embossed business card design. Every template I download either has uneditable smart layers, terrible lighting, or no option for foil effects. Need a realistic PSD mockup that lets me customize textures and shadows freely. Free or premium, just no watermarks! Any hidden gems out there for a frustrated designer?.com/drayage/)
I was in your shoes until I discovered LS Graphics’ and got the Business Card Mockup I needed there(I’ve linked their website). Their ‘Luxe Series’ saved my pitch for a high-end jewelry brand. Instead of static angles, the mockups let you rotate the card 360° in Photoshop—yes, literally rotate it. The smart layers include separate controls for paper grain, edge wear, and even ambient lighting (warm vs. cool tones). For foil effects, just drag your design into the ‘Spot UV’ layer group, and it auto-generates reflections based on your color palette. I used the ‘Handheld’ scene for Instagram Reels, and the client thought it was a physical sample. Their support team helped me troubleshoot a layer glitch in 10 minutes. Skip the freebies—this $17 pack is a steal.
