A few simple tips for picture-perfect prints.
Your printable greeting and note cards are thoughtfully designed for beautiful results, whether printing at home or through your favorite print shop.
✨ Paper Choice Matters
All designs are formatted for standard 8.5" × 11" paper. We recommend bright white cardstock (approximately 65–110 lb) for vibrant colors, crisp details, and a sturdy, professional finish.
For interior message inserts, smooth writing paper (approximately 24–32 lb) provides an elegant finish that's easy to write on.
✨ Printer Settings
Select Actual Size or 100% Scale in your printer settings to maintain the correct card dimensions. Choose Best or High Quality printing for vibrant colors and crisp details.
For designs featuring artwork on both sides, follow the file instructions for double-sided printing and paper orientation.
✨ Cutting & Folding
Carefully trim your printed card along the indicated cutting guides using sharp scissors or a paper trimmer.
Fold along the designated center line to create your finished A2, A7, or Square card. A scoring tool or bone folder can help create a crisp, professional fold, especially when using heavier cardstock.
✨ Interior Inserts & Envelope Liners
If your design includes coordinating message inserts, blank writing pages, or envelope liners, print and trim these separately according to the provided guides.
Interior inserts can be placed inside your folded card, while envelope liners add a beautiful finishing touch to your presentation.
✨ Professional Printing
Prefer to leave the printing to someone else? Your files can also be printed at a local copy shop or office supply store. Request quality cardstock suitable for folding and ask about double-sided printing if your design requires it.
