Christmas Card Printing
signature cardstock is one of the most common choices for Christmas cards for two reasons: photos print clearly and beautifully, and it’s easy to write on. Photo Paper: Photo paper is a more affordable alternative to cardstock.
Keeping this in view, what paper to use to print thank you cards?
Take a standard 8.5-x-11 Card Stock Paper, Portrait direction, print 2-up with no trimming, but cut in half = A9 FLAT CARD which will fit into an A9 Envelope.
Thereof, which paper is best for card making? The first type of paper you’ll want is a heavy-weight cardstock for the base of your card (ie. card base). The most common cardstock sizes are 8 ½” x 11″ (North America) and A4. I always choose white, and my cardstock of choice is Stampin’ Up!’s Whisper White Thick cardstock (100 lb).
Simply so, which side of cardstock do you print on?
The aim is to make the printing side as white as possible and if you compare both sides, one normally will be brighter and whiter than the other. On matt coated paper, the printing side is likely to be smoother and slightly chalkier than the uncoated side. It will also be a little whiter.
