About painted edge invitations

Before guests read a single word, they'll feel the difference: 32 pt of extra thick card with color painted on the edges: gold, silver, black, teal, and more. It's the artisan touch that makes an invitation feel like an object, not just paper. Print on both sides, write notes on the matte finish, and watch people stack them on the mantle instead of the fridge.

Good to know

Let the edge color be the star: keep the front design clean so the colored edges get their moment when the card is stacked or held. Choose an edge color that echoes your palette's accent color. If adding handwritten notes, test your pen on a sample first.

What exactly is a painted edge?

The color is applied to the card's edges (sides, top, and bottom), so a flash of color shows when the card is held or stacked. Standard cards just have plain white edges.

How thick are these cards?

32 pt (0.032 inch): noticeably thicker and more substantial than a standard invitation.

Which edge color should I choose?

Gold and silver for weddings and formal events; black for modern drama; blue, teal, red, green, or yellow for themed parties. Match it to your palette.

Can I write on them?

Yes. The matte laminate finish takes pencil, pen, or marker, so you can add a handwritten note to select guests.

Are they only for weddings?

Not at all: birthdays, graduations, special announcements, any event that deserves an upgrade.
