Abstract
The present invention relates to an assembly which includes a display card-forming section and an identification card-forming section. The identification card-forming section includes a first backing sheet and contains an identification card backing region. Further included is a first adhesive layer, a first release layer joined to the first side of the backing sheet and to the first adhesive layer except at the identification card backing region where there is an opening in the first release layer, and a transparent lamination sheet. The transparent lamination sheet has a first side, joined to the first adhesive layer. The transparent lamination sheet includes an identification card back covering portion aligned with the opening and an identification card front covering portion adjacent to and substantially similar in size to the identification card back covering portion, where the identification card front and back covering portions are separable from the transparent lamination sheet and joined at a location substantially aligned with a side edge of the identification card backing region. Further, the present invention relates to methods of creating a laminated card.
