Small card. Big energy. Postcards put your message in hands, mailboxes, and coffee shop counters: fast.
Start with a templateWhy choose standard postcards
Eight sizes on one page
4 × 6 in is the classic. 5 × 7 in and 6 × 9 in give a photo more room, and 6 × 11 in is the largest, for a message that has to stand out in a stack of mail.
Papers to match the message
Glossy for photos, matte or uncoated for a handwritten note, and linen, kraft, cotton or soft touch when the card should feel special.
Foil and raised finishes
Foil Accent, Embossed Gloss and gold or silver raised foil are sold on the 4.2 × 5.5 in card, for announcements and thank you notes.
Before you order
- Will the post office take it at the postcard rate?
- Postage rates depend on the size, thickness and shape the post office measures, and they change. Check the current USPS rules for your size before you plan a mailing, and pick the size after that, not before.
- The address side layout might be wrong
- If you plan to mail the card, keep the right half of the back clear for the address and the stamp, and put your message and return address on the left. Design that side in the Studio on the Back face so you see it at real size.

How people use it
A just listed card for the neighborhood
A 6 × 9 in card gives the listing photo room and leaves the back for the price, the open house time and your face.
Appointment reminders
Print the clinic on the front and leave space on the back for the date in pen. Matte paper takes ink, and the 4 × 6 in size is easy to stick on a fridge.
A counter card with an offer
Print the offer on both sides so it reads whichever way it lands, with an end date to give people a reason to come back soon.
Plan a postcard that gets read
Pick the size and paper for how the card will travel, then write for the five seconds someone spends with it.
Pick the size for the journey
4 × 6 in is easy to handle and post. 6 × 9 in and 6 × 11 in stand out in a pile of mail but cost more to print and to post. Check postage for your size before you commit.
4 × 6 or 5 × 7 postcardsChoose paper for the back
If anyone will write on the card, choose glossy front only, matte or uncoated. If it is handed out and never written on, glossy front and back keeps both sides bright.
Writing surfaces for postcardsLay out the address side
For a mailed card, keep the right half of the back clear for the address and postage, and put the offer, the end date and the return address on the left.
Postcard address layoutCheck bleed and safe area
Run photos past the trim into the bleed and keep words inside the safe area on both faces. The Studio draws both lines at the size you chose.

Good to know
Glossy front only or glossy front and back?
Glossy front only coats the picture side and leaves the back writable, which suits a card you address or sign by hand. Glossy front and back suits a card that is handed out and never written on.
Coated or uncoated postcards: which should I pick?
Coated papers like glossy keep photos bright. Uncoated and matte papers take a pen and have no glare. If the card has a photo on the front and handwriting on the back, glossy front only gives you both.
What does Front and gray back mean on a postcard?
The front prints in full color and the back in black and gray only. It is the lower priced way to print an address side or a short message.
Can I order a small test batch?
Yes. The price ladder starts at 25 cards on the 4 × 6 in glossy card, which is enough to test an offer with your regular customers before a bigger run.
Corners will bend in the mail
A thicker card bends less. Premium and Premium Plus are both sold on postcards, and Premium Plus is the stiffest.
