Soft touch matte, gold foil and a drawer box

Key takeaways

  • Oversized 9″ x 10″ trim gives interior layouts more room, at the cost of shipping weight.
  • Soft-touch matte lamination with gold foil accents is a high-perceived-value cover combination.
  • Premium bright white interior stock supports detailed layouts and colour.
  • A drawer box turns the planner into a keepsake gift rather than a shipped book.
Read the full breakdown

MCRL produced this wellness planner and drawer box for Jaclyn at Creekside Press. It is a self-care toolbox rather than a diary - praised for its content and detailed design, and packaged so it works as a gift to yourself or to someone else.

The specification is worth reading closely if you’re planning a premium product. The trim is an oversized 9″ wide by 10″ high, which gives the interior layouts room to breathe but pushes shipping weight up, so it’s a decision to make early. The cover is a buttery-soft matte hardcover with foil-stamped accents - soft-touch lamination over board, which reads as expensive in the hand and photographs well, with gold foil providing the contrast against a matte ground. Interior pages are premium bright white stock.

The packaging is a custom drawer box: the planner slides out of a printed sleeve, and the box survives as a keepsake rather than being thrown away. That format costs more than a mailer but changes how the product is perceived, and for planners sold at a premium price point it’s frequently what closes the gap between a book and a gift. Both planner and box came off the same order.

Common Questions

What is a soft-touch cover?
A matte lamination with a velvety, almost suede-like feel. It resists fingerprints better than gloss and provides strong contrast for foil stamping.
What is a drawer box?
A two-part rigid box where an inner tray slides out of a printed outer sleeve. It protects the product in transit and is substantial enough that customers keep it.
Can I print an oversized or non-standard trim size?
Yes - trim size is entirely up to you. We’ll flag the cost implications, since larger formats increase both paper usage and shipping weight.
Does gold foil work on a matte cover?
It works particularly well. The contrast between a flat matte ground and reflective foil is one of the most reliable ways to make cover branding stand out.
