Send a Card People Stand on the Shelf
A greeting card is the rare piece of print people prop up on a desk and keep for weeks. It folds and prints full color inside and out, so it can be handed over or dropped in the mail. It suits a holiday hello from the whole company, a thank-you to your best customers or an invitation that needs a real envelope.
A thank-you run to your best clients might be 50 cards, and a company holiday send several thousand.
What Are Custom Greeting Cards
Custom greeting cards here are scored, folded cards with a front, an inside and a back. The fold is what lets the card stand on a shelf with the weight a flat postcard does not have.
The Two Folded Greeting Card Sizes
Each size is quoted flat and folded, which is where the confusion usually starts.
- 8.5" x 5.5" folding to 4.25" x 5.5": the compact card, cheapest per piece and the easy one to send by the hundred. It drops straight into the A2 envelope.
- 10" x 7" folding to 5" x 7": the roomy one, with space for a photograph on the front and a full message inside.
Build the artwork on the flat size rather than the folded one, and keep anything that has to be read clear of the score down the middle.
What Stocks Can You Print Greeting Cards On
The stock sets the tone of the card before anyone opens it. A 14pt or 16pt Gloss Cover keeps colors punchy and the price down, the 100# Silk/Matte reads smooth, the 16pt Uncoated with Soft Touch reads velvety and premium, the 14pt and 18pt White Linen add a woven texture, and the Metallic Pearl range, Ice, Champagne and Gold at 15pt and Silver at 13pt, catches the light for a holiday or a wedding. A 13pt uncoated cover made from 100% recycled content is there too. Add a High Gloss UV Coating to make a photo or a foil-look design shine.
Start from a professionally built layout in our greeting card design templates, then change the colors, art, and copy in the online editor in minutes.
The blank greeting card template lays out the flat sheet with the bleed and safe margin drawn in, so the fold and the cut land clear of your design.

How Much Do Greeting Cards Cost
A set of 50 greeting cards costs $56.02, about $1.12 per card, and each step up in the run lowers that figure, to roughly 9 cents a card at 7,000 and under 5 cents at 100,000. Count your mailing list first, then set that number on the slider below.
Can You Ship Greeting Cards Ready to Mail
Yes. Turn folding on and the cards arrive folded to finished size, or leave it off and they ship scored and flat. Add the optional White Wove A2 envelopes and each card comes with its own, and optional bundling keeps sets grouped for handout.
How Do Greeting Cards Compare to the Rest of the Range
A flat card that mails without an envelope costs less: the Postcards start lower, and Invitation Cards are the flat option for events. The chart below sets the greeting card beside baptism, response and Christmas cards on price, stock and turnaround.
How Fast Can You Get Greeting Cards
Greeting cards print on a 5 business day standard turnaround, and when a date sneaks up you can move that to 4-day, 3-day, 2-day, Next-Day, or even Same-Day production. Each step buys back time for a set percentage on top of the base price, so you only pay for speed when you actually need it. Same-Day orders need to be approved by the cutoff to ship that day.
