Painted Edge Business Cards

Description

Painted Edge Business Cards

Out of the 10 billion+ business cards printed per year, 88% end up being hooped into garbage in less than a week. Out of these, potential clients hold on to a color card 10 times longer than a standard white card.

Do you want your card to end up in that 88%, or do you want your potential clients to hold on to your card even longer than 10 times?

If you said yes to the second option, then work with us at Print Peppermint to pave the way to a winning business card design.

Why Hire Us?

Like everything else, the design of a stationary item is grounded in an idea. Fortunately, we know the tricks behind breathing life into an idea that turns heads. That’s what we call a ‘great design.’ 38% of people are drawn to brands that provide visually appealing marketing content. With only a small rectangular paper at your disposal to represent the entirety of your brand, there isn’t much space to go by. However, since our job is to turn your idea into a great one, we offer you colored-edge business cards which make a much bigger impact while respecting the laws of minimalism.

Painted Edges – The Halos around Your Cards

Hand out a business card with a painted edge and you’ll definitely turn glances twice—or even thrice—your card’s way. Imagine walking into an office and finding a stack of business cards forming a colored edge. THAT sort of wow you will feel is exactly the sort of reaction your potential clients will experience after being handed your colored-edge business card.

If your brand’s card is the body, its edges form its halo. And if halos come in colors, so should your card!

Design Specifications

39% of people choose not to do business with someone if they feel that their business’s card is ‘cheap looking.’ You can expect thin, ‘plastic-y’, and easily crushable business cards to come under the cheap category of business cards. That is why we print cards on colored-edge, 32pt, and double thick, silk matte laminated paper stock. This paper stock is ideal because it is thin enough to write on with a pen/pencil yet at the same time, thick enough to be twice the weight of a regular card.

For the color of your cards’ edges, you can select from an aesthetic range of more than 15 edge colors. They are: black, brown, metallic gold, metallic pink, metallic purple, pink, red, yellow, blue, metallic blue, metallic green, metallic orange, white, turquoise, orange and white. These colors are standard, but you can also choose from neon inks. If that does not suit your brand’s identity, we can help you find the right color from our custom PMS colors.

Furthermore, since the front and back of your card will be 4-color process printed, with the edges spot-colored PMS and hand-painted, the exact matching of colors between the front/back and edges isn’t ensured. However, you can use contrasting colors for your card and its edges. It’s all the more catchy.

You can also pick edge colors based on your brand’s logo color, the background color of your card, and/or typography color.
