A reflective printed article includes a substrate having a top surface and
a bottom surface with a graphic image printed thereon. A reflective or
glossy ink layer is printed over the entire top surface of the substrate.
A graphic image is printed over the reflective ink layer. The image may
cover the entire portion of the reflective layer or only selected
portions thereof. The graphic image includes hidden or latent images
printed within the graphic image layers. An optional glossy layer of
transparent ink may be printed over the graphic image. A textured pattern
of lines is printed or applied in sections over the optional glossy layer
or graphical image, with each line in the section printed at the same
angle or orientation, with the lines of adjacent sections printed at
different angles in order to reflect light in different directions to
create the illusion of depth, three-dimensionality, hidden images and
motion.
