Your clients will take a second (or third) glance at your contact information when you hand them a painted edge business card from Silkcards.
The colored edge business card printing process involves applying color inks to the side edges of the cardstock. After choosing your desired card thickness, the cardstock surfaces are laminated together to create extremely sturdy cards with custom color edges.
The thicker the paper used, the more dramatic the edge color appears with your business card design and artwork. Use these colored edge business cards to contrast your branding and logo, highlight customization features, add a pop of color, or to compliment the solid background of your edge painted business cards.
Painted edges are perfect for making your cards stand out. We offer a wide range of customization options like metallic ink and foil business cards with gilded edges to add extra flair to your painted edge business cards.
These painted edge cards are colorful business cards made with heavy stock business cards.
