Add an unexpected pop of colour.

  • Thick 32pt paper with a coloured edge
  • 6 edge colours available
  • Smooth, matte laminate

Painted edge business cards (also known as coloured edge business cards) add a surprising appeal to your card. When you add one of 6 bold colours to the sides of your card, it’s easier to get noticed. And with paper that’s about twice as thick as standard cards, the flash of colour sticks out even more. Painted edge business cards add dimension to your design and help you make a memorable first impression.

VistaPrint offers Painted Edge Business Cards design templates in assorted styles.

I try to make my cards pieces of art that people won't throw away after they get the info. So many people appreciate my art on the other side of the card, and many keep these on their desks or even at home.

Frequently asked questions

Sure! When you select an edge colour, you’ll see a HEX code by the name. This is a universal identifier that you can use to match other elements of your design to the edge colour. Just copy the code and add it to the colour panel in our studio or any other design software.

Please note: Our gold-edge business cards feature a metallic finish. You can match the gold colour on the front or back design, but the shiny effect is only available for the edge.

Our painted edge cards have colour on the sides, top and bottom – all the “thin” dimensions that normally don’t have customizable colours.

Right now, you can pick from red, gold, black, blue, yellow and teal.

The HEX codes for these colours are the following: Blue - #0083CA
Teal - #0099B1 Black - #231F20 Gold - #C48A10 Red - #ED1B2F Yellow - #FFF200

These cards are 32pt (equal to .032 of an inch). To give you a frame of reference, each point (pt) is equal to .001 of an inch.

Sorry, but those options aren’t available with these cards. The special way they’re made doesn’t allow for those custom shapes.

Yes, the matte laminate makes them fairly easy to write on with any pencil, pen or marker.
