Help - I need expert knowledge about card?

28 replies

I want a fairly cheap (but expensive looking) card - hopefully with an oatmeally look or preferably texture

Sort of with a fleck in it

Does that make sense

I need to be able to but it on-line - but I'm a bit stumped as to what to search for on google

Any ideas?

I think a stiff paper with a texture would be fine if the finish was perfect - ie crisp printing, crisp and exact fold, perfect layout and font etc. Are you printing/folding it yourself? I think you might find it difficult to accurately fold card (although some of the card makers do it with some special board and a paper folder tool)

From what you say, a readily available source is definitely what you need.

Also, colour matching envelopes can be tricky if you need to do that as well. You need a paper/card that offers envelopes too.

Thanks Soupy - that's a really important point

I really need to go mainstream
