Say Thank You on a Card People Hold Onto
A letterpress thank you card prints on 16-point laminated stock, heavy enough that the client notices the weight when it slides out of the envelope. Add foil to your logo, emboss a monogram or paint the edges, and a set of 100 starts at $220.20, rated 4.8 out of 5 across 16 reviews. Send one to a client after a project closes, to a guest after a wedding, or in the box with a customer's order.
A printed thank you costs about $2.20 a card at 100, and a client remembers the note long after the project invoice. To compare these cards with the rest of the range, browse every style on thank you cards, or build yours from the choices below.
A set of 100 costs $220.20, and a shop that tucks a card into every order climbs the same 9 tiers toward 5,000, where each card costs far less. Bigger orders unlock real bulk discounts, for a launch or a holiday season. Each tier below shows the live set total and what the step up saves.
What Are Letterpress Thank You Cards
Letterpress thank you cards are premium thank you cards printed full color on heavy 16-point laminated stock and built to be finished with pressed and metallic detail. Businesses order them when a plain card would feel thin: client thank yous, wedding and event thanks, and repeat-order inserts for online shops that want the unboxing to end on a considered note. The weight and a finish you can feel make it a card people keep on a desk or pin to a board. For a lighter, everyday thanks the Flat Thank You Cards cover the same job on thinner stock, and the Velvet Thank You Cards run a soft suede laminate across the whole card.
What Size Should a Letterpress Thank You Card Be
Pick the size by the message. The 4" x 6" default is the note that tucks into a shipped order or sits on a place setting. A 5" x 7" fits a logo and a longer handwritten line, and the 6" x 9" reads like a slim card that stands out on a desk. The 8.5" x 11" and 11" x 17" sizes turn the card into a full sheet for a menu, a program, or an announcement that doubles as thanks, and you can set a custom size anywhere up to 11" x 17". The specs panel below lists all 5 sizes, both ink options and the full finishing list. For a card that opens to more room inside, the Folded Thank You Cards score and fold.
Stock, finishing and file prep decide how a letterpress thank you card turns out.
Pick a stock that feels like more
All 3 stocks share the same heavy 16-point weight, so the difference is the surface. The 16pt Silk Laminated reads smooth with a muted sheen, the 16pt Gloss Laminated gives a bright, reflective face that makes color pop, and the 16pt Velvet Laminated feels soft and suede-like and resists fingerprints. Lamination is included on all three, so the card is sealed and durable out of the box.
Choose the finishing
Add foil stamping to a logo for a metallic shine, emboss a monogram so the detail rises off the surface, or lay a spot UV gloss over one element against the laminated base. You can apply foil, embossing, or spot UV to the front or the back, die cut the card to a basic or complex shape, round the corners at a 1/8" or 1/4" radius, and even paint the edges a solid color that frames the stock.
Start from a press-ready blank
If you already have artwork, download a press-ready blank so your design sits at the real trim size with the bleed and safe margin already drawn in, and your foil and embossing never crowd the cut. Grab the letterpress thank you card blank template that matches your order below, drop your art in, and upload.

How Much Do Letterpress Thank You Cards Cost

Wally presses thank you into something they keep
Why a foil and embossed thank you card outlasts a plain one.
A set of 100 letterpress thank you cards starts at $220.20 on heavy 16-point laminated stock, and the foil, embossing, and painted edges make each one feel considered. Print full color, add the finishing that fits, and Wally turns them around in 10 business days. Pick a size, set your run, and say thank you on a card people hold onto.
Can You Print a Name or Code on Each Card
Yes. Turn on variable data and you can drop a unique name, a number, or a one-off code onto every single card in the run, so each one ships personalized instead of identical. A shop can print each card with the buyer's first name and a one-time reorder code, and a firm can address each note to the client by name. Print 4/4 to put the thank you on the front and the code on the back.
How Do Letterpress Thank You Cards Compare
If you are weighing letterpress thank you cards against a flat everyday card, a folded card with room inside or a full-velvet laminate, the chart below lines up the closest siblings with the starting price of each.
How Fast Can You Get Letterpress Thank You Cards
Standard production for these cards runs 10 business days, which gives the specialty finishing the time it needs to come out clean. Before anything prints, you choose how careful to be with the file: send it straight to production to save a step, or request a free online proof and sign off on the exact layout, color, and finish placement first. A proof is the cheapest insurance on a premium card, since foil and embossing register exactly where your art tells them to. Upload a print-ready PDF, JPG, or PNG and you are set.

Letterpress Thank You Card Sizes and What They Suit
Five sizes run on this card, plus a custom size anywhere up to 11" x 17". The size decides how much the card can say and where it ends up, so it is worth settling before the finishing.
| Size | What it suits |
|---|---|
| 4" x 6" | The default note, sized to tuck into a shipped order or sit on a place setting |
| 5" x 7" | Room for a logo and a longer message without crowding either |
| 6" x 9" | A slim card that stands up on a desk rather than lying flat on it |
| 8.5" x 11" | A full sheet for a menu or a program that doubles as thanks |
| 11" x 17" | The largest sheet here, for an announcement carrying photographs and detail |
| Custom | Any size you set, up to 11" x 17" |
All of them print on the same heavy 16-point laminated stock, in 16pt Silk, 16pt Gloss or 16pt Velvet, and foil, embossing, spot UV, die cutting, edge painting and rounded corners are added to the front or the back whichever size you pick.
Letterpress Thank You Cards: Frequently Asked Questions
What is the minimum order and what does it cost?
The smallest run is 100 cards at $220.20, which works out to about $2.20 per card. The per-card price drops across 9 quantity tiers up to 5,000, so a larger client or wedding list costs noticeably less each.
What paper stocks are available?
Three laminated stocks are offered: 16pt Silk, 16pt Gloss, and 16pt Velvet. All three are a heavy 16-point weight with lamination included, which is what gives the card its weight in the hand and its finished surface.
What finishing effects can I add?
Foil, embossing, spot UV, die cutting, edge painting, and rounded corners are all available, applied on the front or the back. Foil setup is configured by the number of foil colors on the front, with a color chosen for each.
How many foil colors can go on the front?
The builder lets you set the number of front foil colors and then choose Foil Color 1 and Foil Color 2, so up to two foil colors can run on the front. Two colors let you separate a monogram from a line of type without adding a second print pass to your artwork.
What sizes are available?
Five sizes run from a 4 by 6 inch card up to an 11 by 17 inch sheet, plus a custom size up to 11 by 17. The small sizes suit a mailed thank you note, while the larger ones work for a presentation piece that goes inside a package.
How long does production take?
Standard production is 10 business days, and a free online proof is part of the order so you approve the layout before anything runs. Plan backwards from your event date and leave room for shipping transit on top of the production window.
