05 / The guide

Cardstock for printing your own card designs.

How core and foil cardstock work, and what to check before you print.

What core cardstock is

Core cardstock has an opaque layer through the middle of the sheet. It stops light coming through, so the back of a printed card does not ghost through the front when you hold it up to a lamp.

Holographic and foil cardstock

Foil cardstock carries a holographic film on the face of the sheet, so a printed card catches the light. The finishes run from rainbow holo and surge foil to twill, halo, fractured, facet, galaxy and gold mirror.

Inkjet printing on thick sheets

Check the printable side of each paper first. Black Core prints on both sides, and Rainbow Holo is for printing on its matte side. Thick sheets feed best one at a time through a straight or rear paper path.

How many cards fit on an A4 sheet

An A4 sheet gives nine cards at card size 63 × 88 mm, three across and three down. A 60-card deck takes seven sheets. Work out your paper cost.

06 / Questions

Before you order.

Will it feed through my printer?

These are thick sheets. Use a printer with a straight or rear feed path rated for heavy media, one sheet at a time. Check your printer's maximum media thickness against the spec of the paper you pick. Tested on an Epson ET-8550. We are not affiliated with Epson. Not sure? Email us and we will help.

Which sides can I print on?

Each paper lists it. Black core prints on both sides. Rainbow holo is foil on one side and matte on the other; we only promise the matte side for inkjet.

Are the moving sheets photos?

No, they are 3D previews of how each finish catches the light. Some finishes also have a Photo view.

Where do you ship?

To France, Monaco, the Netherlands, Poland, Slovakia, Austria and Belgium. Preorders are dispatched by the date shown on the product. Postage is calculated at checkout by weight and zone. Not in the list? Message us and we'll see what we can do.

Can I return it?

Yes. You have 14 days from delivery to withdraw, and we refund within 14 days of your request. Return postage is paid by you; we may wait until the sheets or proof of return reach us before refunding.

How many cards can I print on an A4 sheet?

Nine cards at card size 63 × 88 mm, three across and three down.

Is the cardstock blank?

Yes. Every sheet is blank, and the artwork you print is your own.
