FAQs
Are these cards pre-folded?
No, the cards come flat so you can easily run them through a printer or lay them out for calligraphy before folding.
Can I print on these using a standard inkjet printer?
Yes, provided your printer settings are adjusted for cardstock, though you should verify your printer can handle the 7 x 14cm dimensions.
What is the material made of?
The cards are made of high-quality, durable kraft cardstock suitable for writing and light embellishment.
Can I use glue or stickers on these?
Absolutely. The natural kraft surface acts as an excellent adhesive base for decorative stickers, lace, or dried florals.
How many cards are in one package?
Each package contains 30 individual cards.
Troubleshooting
Ink bleeding on the paper
Use a pen with a finer tip or a pigment-based ink that is less likely to absorb into the natural fibers of the kraft cardstock.
Card not standing up straight
Use a bone folder or a straight edge to create a sharper crease along the center fold, which helps the card maintain its tent shape.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up your display, fold each card crisply along the center line to create a stable tent shape. If using calligraphy, it is recommended to test your ink on a small corner of the card to ensure the paper weight handles the saturation level of your specific pen. To maintain the integrity of the cards, store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the kraft color from fading over time. Avoid contact with liquids or moisture, as the raw paper texture may absorb spills and compromise the written text.
