Eco Friendly Greeting Cards

Eco Friendly Printer prints custom greeting cards, note cards and thank-you cards on recycled paper with matching recycled envelopes. Cards can be made in a range of shapes, sizes and colors, and we can print a recycled or certification emblem on the back of each card.

Sizes

• A2, 4.25 x 5.5 in
• A6, 4.5 x 6.25 in
• A7, 5 x 7 in
• Square, 5.25 x 5.25 in

Why we recommend A6

A6 is the most economical greeting card size we print. Four A6 cards fit on a standard 13 x 19 in sheet, compared with two A7 cards. You receive more cards for the same press time, which lowers the cost of each card.

Paper and finishes

Card stocks include 80lb and 100lb cover, 110lb cotton and Neenah Royal Sundance Felt. Recycled content ranges from 30% to 100% post-consumer waste depending on the stock, and the 100% post-consumer Neenah sheets are processed chlorine-free. Finishing options include letterpress, foil stamping, blind debossing, deckle edges and scoring.

How ordering works

Send your artwork, the card size and the quantity. We will confirm the paper, the envelopes and a price. Most greeting card orders are ready in one to two weeks from artwork approval. For event invitations, see invitation printing.
