About Suede Greeting Cards

Send a personal message or a business thank-you with Suede Greeting Cards. Suede lamination adds a soft-touch finish to the 16pt card stock for a tactile feel. Plan the cover and inside message around the selected fold, and review the available print sides and envelope options before preparing your artwork.

Soft-touch, suede greeting cards feature a 1.5mil scuff-resistant, soft velvet laminate applied on each side of 16pt C2S stock after printing.

Frequently asked questions

Can suede greeting cards be written on?
Yes, you may be able to write on suede greeting cards; however, the ink can easily smear if not let to dry
Are envelopes available for suede greeting cards?
Yes, we do offer a combination of standard envelopes with suede greeting cards.
What are suede cards and how thick are they?
We start with 16pt stock as a base and apply 1.5mil soft velvet, scuff resistant laminate to both sides of the sheet for a total thickness of 19pt. The soft velvet lamination adds a soft, supple look and feel, which softens colors, reduces contrast, and gives an overall lighter, muted appearance.
Are suede cards water resistant or waterproof?
Suede cards are water resistant, but not waterproof. This means the cards stand up well when they come in contact with a small amount of water, but cannot be submerged in water without water seeping into the card and causing damage. Please test your specific application to ensure the cards are appropriate for that use.
Is suede a coating or a laminate?
The term “suede” refers to the soft, supple texture of the cards, not the actual materials used. A soft velvet laminate is applied to both sides of the card to achieve a luxurious, suede-like look and feel.
