Color where you least expect it. A painted edge turns the side of your card into a brand moment.
What makes this a good choice?
The front and back do the talking. But the edge does the winking. Painted edge cards carry your brand color around all four sides, on a substantial 32pt card with a smooth matte laminate that's easy to write on. Pick from six colors (red, gold, black, blue, yellow, teal), match the HEX code in your design, and hand over a card people turn sideways to admire.

About previews & your artwork
Previews are not production proofs. Customizing creates a separate editable project; your original stays unchanged. Review both sides, bleed and image quality before printing. Product links open options without transferring artwork. Your logo, cart contents and typed request stay out of AI requests. Nothing is added to your cart automatically.

|---|---|---|
| Standard business cards | A straightforward starting point | Confirm paper, finish and printed sides. |
| Matte business cards | A low-sheen look | Compare the selected stock and finish before ordering. |

Your artwork, in three clear steps
- Start at the final size. Use the selected product template. Extend background artwork through the bleed; keep names, logos and contact details inside the safe area.
- Use your originals. Use the highest-resolution original images. Enlarging a screenshot does not restore detail. Review both sides, spelling, crop and any QR code at actual size.
- Review before ordering. Attach the final file to the selected product. For supported Studio formats, export the print PDF and review its report. The Studio uses RGB; specialty finishes, folds and dielines require product-specific instructions.
Good to know.
What edge colors are available?
Red, gold, black, blue, yellow and teal. Each shows a HEX code you can copy to match your design: Blue #0083CA, Teal #0099B1, Black #231F20, Gold #C48A10, Red #ED1B2F, Yellow #FFF200.
Is the gold edge metallic?
Yes. The gold edge has a metallic finish. The shine is only on the edge, but you can match the gold tone in your design.
How thick are painted edge cards?
32pt: that's 0.032 of an inch, a seriously substantial card.
Can I get painted edges with rounded corners or square shapes?
No: the way these cards are made doesn't allow custom shapes.
Can I write on them?
Yes. The matte laminate makes them easy to write on with pencil, pen or marker.

What does the price include?
The displayed item subtotal covers the selected quantity and options. Tax and delivery are calculated during secure checkout before you pay.
