What kind of paper do you use?

Most items offer a choice of paper types, which you can select while personalizing your design.

Our products typically default to Silk Cardstock, a great choice for photo cards! This smooth paper prints vibrant true-to-color photos, without looking glossy or cheap. 

If you prefer a classic matte finish, we recommend choosing Matte Cardstock. Please note that Matte paper prints non-photo product beautifully! It is also a great choice for light, bright, high quality photos. 

Note: All Thank You Cards default to Matte Cardstock, as this paper is ideal for handwritten notes.
