Frequently Asked Questions

The minimum order is 10 cards per design.

Multi-Design Volume Pricing

More significantly, our multi-design pricing means you can order different designs in the same size and paper stock, with discounts calculated on your total quantity across all designs.

For example, order 10 each of 5 different designs (50 cards total) and you'll receive the 50-card price on every design.

What This Means for Your Business

  • Build a diverse collection that appeals to a broader customer base
  • Benefit from volume pricing without committing to large quantities of single designs
  • Test new work affordably whilst expanding your range
  • Offer greater choice, which naturally increases sales opportunities

Whether you're starting with a handful of designs or curating a comprehensive collection, the pricing structure works in your favour from the outset.

We offer five premium FSC-certified paper stocks:

  • Ultra White 300gsm - Satin finish, ideal for photography and vibrant art
  • Bright 350gsm - Smooth matte, perfect for illustrations and bold graphics
  • Recycled 350gsm - 100% recycled with natural texture and eco-conscious aesthetic
  • Textured 280gsm - Distinctive feel, perfect for watercolours and illustrations
  • Warm Cotton 320gsm - Luxurious cotton-blend with soft white tone and premium feel

All papers are carbon-captured and FSC-certified.

Absolutely! You can order multiple different designs in a single order. We offer multi-design discounts based on your total quantity when ordering the same size and paper stock. This allows you to expand your product range while still benefiting from volume pricing.

We offer 6 standard sizes (all dimensions shown are finished size when folded):

  • 7×5 inches - Popular landscape format
  • A5 (148×210mm) - Large portrait format

Cards are professionally creased and supplied flat. Templates are available for all sizes in Photoshop, InDesign, and PDF formats.
