Share a celebration, opening or important date with Suede Announcement Cards. Suede lamination adds a soft-touch finish to the 16pt card stock for a tactile feel. Give the event details a clear hierarchy and include the response information readers need. Check the finished size and any available envelope options before ordering.

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

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 announcement cards water resistant or waterproof?
Suede announcement 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.
Can suede announcement cards be written on?
Yes, you can write on suede announcement cards but the ink can easily smear if it doesn’t dry completely.
Are envelopes available for suede announcement cards?
Yes, we do offer a combination of standard envelopes (A2, A6, A7, A9, and 6.5" square) with suede announcement cards.
Can you mail suede announcement cards with round corners?
Suede announcement cards can be mailed with 1/8" (0.125") radius corners only, but KB Print Lab mailing services are not available for these products. Cards with 1/4" (0.25") radius corners can be mailed in an envelope. See USPS regulations, here.
