Trading cards for clothing and the like that include an integral removable
gemstone applique (tattoo), or an integral removable temporary printed
tattoo with gemstone adornments, both for body ornamentation purposes. The
gemstone tattoo is formed on a multi-layer-paper backing that is attached
to the trading card by special pressure sensitive adhesive. The tattoo
also includes a water soluble slip layer, a waterproof film coating, and a
plurality of gemstones bonded to the waterproof film and sandwiched
between the film and slip layer. The gemstone trading card is a
stimulating and eye-catching novelty that compels notice by potential
customers.
