Can You Help Me Choose the Right Paper for My Greeting Cards?
Absolutely. If you’re unsure which paper stock is right for your greeting cards, we’re happy to help you choose the best option based on your design, budget, and how the finished cards will be used.
For colourful artwork, photographs, and bold illustrations, silk paper is a popular choice because it delivers vibrant print and excellent image detail. If you’re looking for a more natural or premium feel, uncoated and textured papers offer a softer finish that’s ideal for artist-designed cards, luxury stationery, and handwritten messages. If your greeting cards are being sold in retail stores or online, choosing a heavier stock between 12pt and 18pt can also give them a sturdier, higher-quality feel.
If you’d like to learn more about the different paper options before ordering, our guide to gloss, silk, and uncoated paper explains how each stock affects the appearance, feel, and durability of your greeting cards.
What Greeting Card Sizes Do You Offer?
We print greeting cards in a range of popular sizes, including 6×4 in, 8×4 in, 5.5×4.25 in, 7×5 in, and 8.5×5.5 in, making it easy to find the right format for everything from personal greetings to retail collections and corporate stationery.
Our 5.5×4.25 in cards are a popular choice for everyday greetings, thank-you cards, and retail displays thanks to their compact, versatile size. If your design features detailed illustrations, photography, or longer messages, the 7×5 in and 8.5×5.5 in formats provide more space to showcase your artwork. For something a little different, our 8×4 in greeting cards are ideal for contemporary designs, invitations, and promotional mailers.
The right size ultimately depends on your design, the amount of content you want to include, and the impression you want your greeting cards to make. If you’re unsure which format is best, we’re always happy to help you choose the most suitable option for your project.
Can I Add Foil to Greeting Cards?
Yes. Metallic foil is a great way to add a premium finish to your greeting cards, drawing attention to important design elements with a brilliant reflective effect. It’s particularly effective for highlighting names, greetings, logos, borders, decorative illustrations, and other key features that deserve extra emphasis.
We offer a choice of 12 metallic foil colours, including classic Gold and Silver, alongside bold options such as Rose Gold, Copper, Holographic, and other vibrant finishes. Whether you’re creating luxury greeting cards, holiday collections, wedding stationery, or branded corporate cards, foil can help your designs leave a lasting impression.
To achieve the best results, your artwork should include a clearly defined foil layer. If you’re unsure whether your file is set up correctly, our prepress team will review your artwork and highlight any issues before production begins. If you’re preparing foil artwork yourself, our guide on how to check your foil printing proof explains what to look for before approving your files. You can also discover how premium finishes can add value in our guide to maximizing profits with luxury greeting cards.

Can I Turn My Artwork Into Greeting Cards to Sell?
Absolutely. If you’re an artist, illustrator, photographer, or designer, we can help transform your artwork into professionally printed greeting cards that are ready to sell online, at craft markets, in gift shops, or through retail stockists. Whether you’re launching your first collection or expanding an established range, we offer the flexibility to print high-quality greeting cards that showcase your work beautifully.
With minimum order quantities starting from 50 cards, it’s easy to test new designs before committing to larger print runs. Once you’ve found your best-selling artwork, you can quickly reorder additional quantities whenever you need them.
We’ll professionally print your greeting cards and deliver them ready for you to package, market, and sell under your own brand. If you’re planning to launch a greeting card collection, our guide on how to turn your artwork into greeting cards walks you through the process from artwork preparation to creating a successful retail product.
Will My Greeting Card Design Look Different Once Printed?
In most cases, yes. It’s completely normal for printed greeting cards to look slightly different from what you see on a computer monitor, tablet, or phone screen. That’s because screens display colour using light (RGB), while commercial printing reproduces colour with ink or toner (CMYK) on paper.
The paper you choose also influences the finished result. Silk and other coated stocks generally produce brighter colours and sharper images, while uncoated, textured, and recycled papers create a softer, more natural appearance. Very dark artwork, highly saturated colours, and files supplied in RGB are the most likely to show noticeable differences once printed.
To help you achieve the best possible results, we recommend supplying artwork in CMYK and reviewing your files carefully before production. If you’d like to understand the differences in more detail, our guide to print vs screen colours explains why colours can vary and how to prepare your artwork for print.
What Paper Thickness Should I Choose for Greeting Cards?
The ideal paper thickness depends on how your greeting cards will be used. Most professionally printed greeting cards are produced on premium stocks ranging from 12pt to 18pt, offering an excellent balance of durability, print quality, and a high-quality feel.
If you’re creating greeting cards for retail sale, artists’ collections, or special occasions, a thicker stock can give your cards a more substantial, premium feel that customers immediately notice. Lighter stocks may be suitable for postcards, promotional inserts, or direct mail, but folded greeting cards generally benefit from the extra rigidity of heavier papers, helping them feel more luxurious and stand proudly when displayed.
If you’re comparing different paper weights before ordering, our guide to paper thickness in pt explains how commercial paper thickness is measured and how to choose the right stock for your project.
Can You Help Me Make Sure My Greeting Card Design Is Print-Ready?
Absolutely. Whether you’re supplying your own artwork or asking us to create your greeting card design from scratch, we’ll help make sure everything is ready before production begins.
If you’re providing print-ready artwork, our prepress team will review your files before preparing your proof. We’ll check for any obvious issues that could affect the finished print, such as artwork positioning, bleed, resolution, or missing elements. If we spot anything that needs attention, we’ll let you know before your greeting cards go to print.
If you’d prefer us to design your greeting cards, simply select “Supply Brief & We Design” when placing your order. Once you’ve received your order confirmation, send us your design brief, wording, logos, images, and any other information you’d like to include. One of our in-house designers will create your artwork and work with you until you’re happy with the final proof.
If you’re preparing your own files, our guide to how to check your artwork for print is a great place to start before exporting your artwork.
Are Printed Greeting Cards Still Popular?
Yes. Printed greeting cards continue to be a popular way to celebrate special occasions, thank customers, and strengthen personal and professional relationships. While digital messages are quick and convenient, a thoughtfully designed greeting card offers a more personal experience that many people still appreciate and remember.
Whether it’s a birthday, holiday, wedding, new baby, or a simple thank-you, printed greeting cards create a lasting impression that’s difficult to replicate with an email or text message. They’re also a popular choice for artists, retailers, charities, and businesses looking to build stronger connections through meaningful, high-quality print.
Unlike digital messages that can quickly disappear in a busy inbox, greeting cards are often displayed on desks, shelves, mantels, and refrigerators, allowing your message to be seen and appreciated long after it’s been received.
Can I Print Eco-Friendly Greeting Cards?
Yes. We offer a wide range of recycled, FSC-certified, and specialty paper stocks that are ideal for creating more environmentally conscious greeting cards. Whether you’re producing artist collections, retail stationery, corporate greetings, or personal cards, there are plenty of sustainable options available without compromising on print quality.
Our range includes everything from bright white recycled papers to natural textured stocks made with alternative fibres, allowing you to choose a material that complements both your artwork and your environmental goals. The right paper can help reinforce your brand values while still delivering a premium finished product that customers will be proud to send and receive.
