Custom Shape Bookmarks That Stand Out From The Rest
When it comes to designing your die cut bookmarks, we have an array of high-quality paper stocks, ranging from silk to gloss, recycled to uncoated. We guarantee we have a paper stock that’ll bring your custom shape bookmarks to life. Are you looking for something a little thicker? Paper thickness will add depth and richness to your die cut bookmarks, giving them that luxurious premium feel. If you’d rather see the options in real life before making your choice, you can order one of our sample packs. This makes it easier to perfectly match your vision by seeing different shades, textures, and finishes for each paper stock for your die-cut bookmarks.
We also offer several stunning finishes for your custom shape bookmarks. Go double-sided, add a touch of shiny metallic foil, or even include a little drill hole, which is perfect for leveling up your custom shape bookmarks. If you decide to create foiled die cut bookmarks, we’ll add a soft touch lamination as standard to preserve the longevity of your bookmark. But you can opt for a gloss or matt lamination if you prefer.

FAQS
What Shape Can My Die Cut Bookmark Be?
Any shape you would be liking! Well, almost. From sword-shaped bookmarks for your historical fiction to planet-shaped bookmarks for your epic sci-fi, we can cut your bookmarks to the custom shape you want. Our team will let you know whether the shape you have chosen will work, and if not, will provide suggestions on how to make it more suitable.
What paper type would you suggest for custom foil wedding invitations?
Now that’s a question we simply can’t answer! We have an enormous amount of paper types to choose from, all recommended for different themes, styles, and wedding aesthetics. So, if you’re going for understated, you might want to consider a crisp white stock such as G.F.Smith White Frost or Uncoated, however if you’ve got a botanical theme, you may want to check out our G.F.Smith Forest cardstock. If you’re struggling to decide, we recommend ordering a sample pack, crammed full of all our favorites.
How Do I Supply My Artwork For Die Cut Bookmarks?
With our die cut bookmarks, we require both your artwork files and the shape you would be liking your bookmarks to be. The shape needs to be supplied as a 1pt stroke, separate from your printed artwork. There are a couple of things to keep in mind with your artwork. The first is to make sure that the cutline isn’t touching (or almost touching) anything important on your artwork. The second is to edit your artwork to have bleed.
Can I Print Both Sides Of My Die Cut Bookmark?
Yes, you can. Simply choose the double-sided option in the menu above. Remember, the shape for the front of your bookmark will be mirrored for the reverse, so make sure to design your artwork to match.
Which Paper Is Best For Die Cut Bookmarks?
In the paper options above, we have chosen the paper stocks that we believe are best for die cut bookmarks. This hand-selected range includes the majority of our lovely paper stocks, as well as the paper thicknesses that we think will give you the best printed results.
Can I Print Multiple Different Bookmark Designs?
We’ve given you the choice to split your order across multiple different designs. Make sure that each of your different designs are the same shape, paper type, and size. If you would be liking different shapes, each bookmark would need to be ordered separately.
Do My Die Cut Bookmarks Need To Be Laminated?
In most circumstances, your die cut bookmarks don’t need to be laminated if you don’t want them to be. We’ve provided you with the option to choose between our three laminate options, as well as the option to have no laminate at all. With our thickest papers, our team may advise for you to have a laminate to help protect your bookmarks within the production process. In these cases, we will be in touch during the digital proofing stage to advise accordingly.
