Question

What paper stock works best for thank you cards?

Answer

Thank you cards read best on warm, tactile stocks. The paper is part of the message, so it should feel personal the moment it is held.

ChoiceWhy it works
Uncoated or soft-touch matteFeels warm and personal in the hand
Thick stock (16pt or 32pt)Signals care and quality
Glossy finishBetter saved for marketing pieces, can feel impersonal here

For a heartfelt note, a matte or soft-touch heavyweight stock sets the right tone.
