Question
What size should I make my greeting cards?
Answer
5x7 inches is the most popular greeting card size and the safest default - it is the standard used by major card companies, fits standard A7 envelopes (5.25" x 7.25"), ships with regular first-class postage, and leaves plenty of room for artwork and a message. Smaller formats work well when the message is short.
| Size | Dimensions | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| A2 | 4.25" x 5.5" | Short thank-you notes, quick messages |
| A7 | 5" x 7" | The all-purpose standard for most occasions |
Match your card to an envelope that already exists in that size, so you are not stuck hunting for a custom fit later.
