A method of personalization for at least two cards (), each card including a first side, a second side, and a peripheral surface, includes the following steps: forming a pile () of at least two cards by stacking the first side or the second side of an article (n) such that the first surface or the second surface of the following card (n+1) is in contact with the first side or the second side of the card (n); aligning, via an alignment device () at least one element of the peripheral surface of the card (n) with at least one element of the peripheral surface of the following card (n+1) such that at least one element of the set of peripheral surfaces of each card forms at least one uniform surface; applying, via an application device, at least one product on at least one element of the uniform surface.

A method of manufacturing a card () of small format () and small thickness (), detachable from a plate () of large thickness (), includes the following steps: providing in the plate () of large thickness () at least one hole () opposite with a cumulative depth () equal to the difference between the large thickness () and the small thickness (), pre-cutting of the card () of small format () in the at least one hole (). The product obtained by such a method is also described.

Method of manufacturing a card of small thickness detachable from a plate of large thickness

A support that includes a detachable element which has one border, of which at least a portion is attached to the support, with the border portions attached to the support all being so attached by weakened attachment seams, where the support also includes at least two lines of weakness that allow the support to be separated into at least two portions connected by a weakened attachment seam to the detachable element, with each of the lines of weakness being such that, when the support is bent along this line of weakness until it breaks, none of the weakened attachment seams breaks totally. Also disclosed is a method for the detachment of such a detachable element as well as a method for the manufacture of such a support.
