A carrier sheet comprising a printed paper sheet having an integrated detachable
card with a magnetic backing and method of manufacturing same is described. The
carrier sheet is comprised of a printed paper sheet having printed matter on at
least a front face thereof. The printed matter contains card information printed
in a card area. A polyfilm patch is adhered over the card area and over the card
information printed thereon. A thin flexible patch of magnet material is adhesively
secured on a rear face of the paper sheet and extends over the card area. A die-cut
is made in the sheet and delineates the contour of the card area and extends through
the polyfilm patch, the paper sheet and partly into the patch of magnet material
to form a burstable region along said die-cut to hold the card in the carrier sheet.
The die-cut can have any ornamental shape.
