Can I have a frame or border around my image?

YES. However, it is strongly suggested that you do not use a thin border around your product. If you are designing your file with a border around the edges, it must be a minimum of 1/4" wide, plus the 1/8" we need for bleed. Due to physical limitations of guillotine cutting, borders thinner than that will most likely appear uneven. Also, critical type or images in the design must be at least 1/8" from the edge of the card. 4OVER4.COM is not responsible for type, art or images that are cut off if these guidelines are not followed.
