Design Notes:

Envelopments® C2 Cardstocks are available as Pocket Folds™, Envelopments®, Portable Pockets™, and any style of folded, Z, Gate, or flat cards. Please use Envelopments® names/colors when specifying your paper selections. Paper stocks are available in cut sizes. If you are not sure about a color or have something different in mind, you may contact us to inquire about additional paper selections we carry for custom cards from other manufacters that work well with Envelopments® products. See the styles & sizes chart for available cuts and exact sizing.

Textured Metallic cardstocks are not recommended for most inkjet printers. However, some may work with laser printers (such as those rated for cardstock--best with a straight-through path), as well as for offset and thermography printing, letterpress, engraving, and foil. Groove Cardstocks in particular have a ribbed texture and are not recommended for printing with a laser printer (although we have had limited success printing on the smooth side). Light inks printed on darker stocks by laser, inkjet or thermography are not recommended (either C1 or C2); opt instead for flat offset, foil, engraving, or letterpress printing to achieve optimal results using light ink on dark stock.We recommend that you test any cardstock with your printer to ensure printability prior to placing a large order. Samples cardstocks are available with our sample swatchbook.

^ This symbol indicates that the texture is also visible (although to a lesser degree) on the back side. Other textured metallics are smooth on the reverse. Most of the C3 stocks are 90 lb cover to 105 lb cover.

Envelope Icon represents cardstock colors that also have envelopes in a matching stock.

*Note on Jupiter and Garnet Cardstocks from the paper manufacturer: "It has been brought to our attention that Garnet and Jupiter colors can rub off on lighter colors under certain conditions and uses. We are not entirely sure why some colors are doing this while others are not. Though the problem is limited at this point we would caution you to be careful when using these colors. In being made aware of this, we have also noticed the phenomenon potentially with Lapis, Pennyite, and Antique Gold." -- From EnvelopMe.com: We believe the problem to be more prevalent during the hot, humid summer months, and recommend that you take extra care during these times with any of the darker/intense colors. You may request tissues to use with your invitation, and also remember to have the post-office hand-cancel your envelopes.

A note on color: The colors shown above will vary by monitor and are not intended to be an exact representation of the actual paper color.
For Designers: We have attempted to provide you with the closest color match using the Pantone Color Bridge™ Coated (remember, this may not be exact, and these cardstocks are metallic). The spot color is used unless specified as CMYK. Please order a sample if in doubt.

A note on color names: Please note that different retail establishments may use different color names for the same or comparable colors, and others may use the same name for an entirely different color or product. If you have seen a color elsewhere, please be sure that the product name was from the official Envelopments product line, and not from another brand. We cannot guarantee that one of our products will match another line purchased elsewhere, nor can we guess the color that will coordinate with another brand that we have not seen. The color names used on this site are the official Envelopments® brand names, and many of these colors are exclusive to the Envelopments® product line.

If you are unsure, please order a sample and see our return policy before ordering.
