Printed business cards remain one of the simplest ways to share your contact details and reinforce your brand. They are useful at meetings, events, trade counters, exhibitions, appointments, networking sessions, deliveries, packaging inserts and reception areas.
A good business card should be clear, readable and easy to keep. It should include the key contact details customers need, while using your brand colours, logo and design style consistently.

Makers, Artists and Online Sellers
Business cards can be included with parcels, art prints, handmade products, Etsy orders, gift packaging and customer thank-you messages.
Business Card Artwork Tips
Business cards are small, so the artwork must be clear and well spaced. Avoid overcrowding the design and make sure the most important contact details are easy to read.
| Element | Recommendation |
|---|---|
| Logo | Use a high-resolution or vector logo where possible |
| Name and role | Keep clear and easy to read |
| Phone and email | Check carefully before printing |
| Website | Use a short, correct web address |
| Social handles | Include only the platforms you actively use |
| QR code | Test at final printed size before ordering |
| Writable areas | Choose uncoated stock if the card needs to be written on |
| Margins | Keep important text away from trim edges |

Business Card Printing FAQs
What size are standard business cards?
Our standard business cards measure 85 × 55mm. Allow 3mm bleed on every edge when preparing your artwork, giving a total artwork size of 91 × 61mm. Keep important text and logos safely inside the trimming area.
What is the difference between silk and uncoated business cards?
Silk business cards have a smooth coated surface that gives printed colours a clean, professional appearance. Uncoated business cards have a more natural paper feel and are better suited to writing appointment details, notes or loyalty stamps.
Which laminated finish should I choose?
Matt lamination offers a subtle, professional finish with reduced shine. Gloss lamination creates a brighter, reflective appearance, while soft-touch lamination provides a smooth, premium feel. The best choice depends on your design, branding and how the cards will be used.
What size are square business cards?
Our square business cards measure 65 × 65mm, giving your design a distinctive alternative to traditional rectangular cards. With 3mm bleed on every edge, the required artwork dimensions are 71 × 71mm.
Can I order eco-friendly business cards?
Yes. Fantasy Prints offers eco-friendly business cards using 350gsm Nautilus uncoated paper. These cards have a natural, uncoated finish and are suitable for businesses looking for an alternative to conventional coated business cards. Check the product listing for the current paper specification and availability.
What artwork do I need for business card printing?
We recommend supplying print-ready PDF artwork in CMYK colour mode, with 3mm bleed on all sides. Keep text, logos and other important elements within a safe margin from the trimmed edges. Use high-resolution images and check all contact details before ordering. If you're unsure about your artwork, Fantasy Prints can help review the file before printing.
