1. A method of making an identification card with background and personalized information printed therein comprising the steps of:

  • printing personalized information on the exposed surface of a receiver sheet which is adhered to a support sheet on its opposite surface;

    lightly fusing the exposed surface of the receiver sheet to a surface of a further sheet of plastic material to create a bond of low bond strength to temporarily sandwich the receiver sheet between the support sheet and the further sheet surface;

    flexing the lightly fused together sandwich sufficiently to cause the adhesion of the support sheet to the receiver sheet to loosen;

    removing the loosened support sheet; and

    subjecting the remaining sandwiched together sheets to heat and pressure to effect further fusing for complete lamination of the receiver sheet to the further sheet material.
