I need different wording on some of my cards. Can you do that?
We certainly can. When ordering, select the number of different versions you have in the ‘types’ drop down menu, and choose the total number of cards you’d like in ‘quantity’.
For example, if you need 20 with the church address and 40 without, choose 2 types and 60 for quantity. You can split the quantity any way you like; just pop this in the order notes when completing the purchase or email/call us with your requirements.
What's the difference between 'wove' and 'laid' card?
Wove is a standard card finish. Largely smooth with just a slight texture to the surface to give it a classy feel. Laid is a lightly textured card with a traditional striped pattern.
