Print recycled greeting cards fast on 15pt uncoated Mohawk 100% recycled card stock. This sustainable greeting card option is ideal for thank you cards, holiday cards, retail card collections, branded stationery, artist cards, event cards, invitations, announcements, customer appreciation cards, and promotional mailers.
Order as few as 10 greeting cards with same day, next day, or standard 2 to 3 business day production options. It is a flexible choice when you need a small quantity quickly, want to test different artwork, or need multiple versions for different occasions, designs, locations, customers, events, or campaigns.
These greeting cards are scored for easy folding and supplied flat. Scoring creates a clean fold line and helps reduce cracking, but the cards are not folded before pickup or delivery. They are shipped flat so you can fold them when needed.
Need more than one greeting card design? No problem. You can split your order across multiple versions of art, making it easy to print different illustrations, messages, seasonal designs, promotional offers, QR codes, or branded card layouts without committing to a large run of each design.
These greeting cards are printed digitally on uncoated recycled stock using a modern toner based printing process. The toner sits on top of the paper rather than absorbing into the fibres, which gives printed areas a slight sheen and a subtly coated feel.
For greeting card designs with heavy ink coverage, large solid colour areas, or when a completely matte finish is preferred, we recommend choosing one of our offset printed recycled greeting card options, including our 12pt and 24pt recycled stocks.
For best results, add a printed proof to your order so you can review the colour, finish, and stock before the full greeting card quantity is produced.

Heavy ink coverage can be problematic. When the cards rub together, the ink can rub off. Heavy coverage makes this more apparent. This can also be an issue for corner rounding, so we generally advise clients with heavy coverage not to round corners.
The minimum recommended text size is 6pt. With any small text, if grey use a black ink only version; if Black, use 100% K.
Anything thinner than a hairline stroke (0.25") - even at 100% K may look choppy when printed due to Indigo print resolution.
There is a screen to the Indigo print which customers should be aware of if they're comparing to traditional offset printing.
Try to keep all line weights for graphics over 0.5pt. Anything under that can break up in the texture of the stipple.
When working with small elements like lines or text, a simpler colour build is best to avoid misregistration. For example, 0/0/0/90 is a much better build than 20/20/20/40.
