Question
What paper stock works best for greeting cards?
Answer
For most greeting cards, a sturdy card stock in the 14pt to 16pt range gives a professional feel without being bulky. For a more luxurious card, thicker stocks make a stronger impression.
| Stock | Feel |
|---|---|
| 14pt | Solid, everyday greeting card weight |
| 16pt | About the thickness of a credit card, sturdy and premium |
| 32pt | Ultra-thick, luxury feel for high-end cards |
Finish matters too. Matte, gloss, and uncoated each change the look, while specialty finishes like soft-touch and linen add texture that feels warm and personal.
