Postcard Care

Caring for your postcards

Avoid bending or creasing of postcards by storing them in a sturdy container. If cards come in contact with liquid, immediately wipe all surface liquid with a cloth or napkin for each individual card. Allow affected cards to air dry and make sure not to bend or crease cards while drying. When storing cards for a long period of time, do so in a way that prevents the corners of the postcards from being bent. We recommend storing them in sturdy box to keep them safe from bending and creases.

Q:
How easy do the postcards tear?
Asked a year ago by Signs
A:
The thickness of 16pt cardstock is resistant to tearing when handled properly. Cardstock is a paper product, meaning that tearing is possible when enough pressure is applied. Frequent bending or creasing of a postcard will weaken the durability of the card. Thus, assuming there is no intentional effort to tear the cards nor is there misuse or improper storage, the postcards should not tear during regular use.
Q:
Are your postcards waterproof?
Asked a year ago by Signs
A:
The cardstock used to produce our postcards is not waterproof. The glossy coating will add a minimal water resistance to the surface of the postcard. A matte postcard’s coating will allow for brief contact with moisture, but will not make it waterproof. We recommend avoiding contact with liquid by storing in a sealed container or plastic bag when travelling in wet conditions.
Q:
How small or big can my postcards be?
Asked a year ago by Signs
A:
We offer postcards in two sizes: a 4 inch tall by 6 inch wide card, and a 5 inch tall by 7 inch wide card. These dimensions are sometimes referred to as 6”x4” and 7”x5” sizes. Whichever you use, the standard orientation of our postcards is horizontal but one can easily design them in a way that they could be used in a vertical orientation.
Q:
Will larger postcards cost more?
Asked a year ago by Signs
A:
Yes. Larger sized postcards will cost more than smaller postcards. Prices will also vary depending on order size and whether you choose a matte or gloss finish.
Q:
Do you offer rounded edges on your postcards?
Asked a year ago by Signs
A:
We do not currently offer rounded edges on our postcards. If you’re looking for cards with rounded edges, please contact us for assistance.
Q:
Do you offer custom shapes for your postcards?
Asked a year ago by Signs
A:
We only provide the listed sizes of postcards at this time. We are unable to offer custom shaped postcards. However, we do offer cut to shape posters, which could work as a good substitute.
Q:
How about raised or embossed ink, do you offer that?
Asked a year ago by Signs
A:
We do not offer raised or embossed ink at this time.
Q:
If I print my postcards in more than one color am I charged more?
Asked a year ago by Signs
A:
No. All of our postcards and signs are printed using full color, so you will not be charged extra for additional colors used.
Q:
Are your postcards a matte or gloss finish?
Asked a year ago by Signs
A:
We offer our postcards in either a matte or gloss finish, depending on your design preferences. The default option will be a matte finish. If you prefer your postcards to be glossy in nature please select this on the Design Tool or change this option in your shopping cart before proceeding to the checkout.
Q:
What’s the difference between a matte and glossy finish?
Asked a year ago by Signs
A:
A matte finish has a dull, non-shiny appearance. A glossy finish will leave your postcards with a smooth, shiny finish.
