Custom Greeting Cards

We can create Christmas/Greeting cards customized to your business. Stay in touch with your current and prospective customers this season with a high quality greeting card tailored to you and your client. We can even personalize each card with the name of your recipient and even a personal message if you want.

Most greeting cards are A6 size (148x105mm), but A5 or DL size is also possible.  We can print the outside in full colour.  Most people print the inside in black only to keep costs down, but we can leave the inside blank or go to full colour – whatever suits your need and budget.

The process is really simple. If you have your own designer then you can simply send us the files ready to print (high-quality PDF is preferred, 3mm bleeds, with crop marks). Or we can help you with our pre-designed templates.

Here are the simple steps:

1. Choose your cover image

We have a range of good Christmas images, or can give you a selection of images to suit your theme and business.  You can always supply your own.

2. Write your cover text and inside text

It can be as simple as “Merry Christmas” or as elaborate as you like. You can put some brief text on the front cover (needs to be fitted to the chosen image), inside pages (usually in black only unless you ask otherwise; you can use both flaps if you want to) and the back panel (you’ve paid for colour on this side of the card, so you might as well use it—we can put your logo or a friendly photo as well as your contact information here).

3. Choose your fonts

Scripted fonts usually work really well for greeting cards.

4. Choose the layout

We can fold along the long edge or the short edge although the most common is the long edge. Cards can be supplied creased or folded.

5. Give us your database of names

We’ll integrate the names right into the card, print address labels, and even get them in the mail for you—if you want us to!

 

That’s it! Send it through to us and we will put it together and send you a proof within two working days. Printing takes a further three working days from the time you have approved the final artwork.

Card Personalisation

Creating a custom card for your business is great, but wouldn’t it be even better if you were to integrate the person’s name and their business into the card itself.  We can personalise your greeting cards with any manner of variable text to gran the attention of your recipient.
