Frequently asked questions
Letterpress is a time-honoured printing technique where metal plates with various text and designs are inked and then stamped onto paper. This creates a deep impression in the paper and a beautiful, antique look.
We’ve made it easy. Start by selecting a paper option from the dropdown menu and then head to our gallery to select a card template. After selecting, you’ll be taken to the design studio. Here, you can pick your ink colour and customize your template with a business logo, message and any other details you’d like. Finalize your design, place your order and you’re done. (And to think, once upon a time you’d have to find yourself a printing press.)
We offer 3 different paper stocks, which vary in colour, thickness and material.

Due to letterpress’ unique printing methods, letterpress cards have a distinct texture and feel that many other Christmas cards don’t. Between this and their beautiful vintage look, letterpress cards can leave a lovely impression on recipients.
With the time and technology required to create letterpress, letterpress holiday cards can also be a bit more costly compared to other holiday cards. However, here at VistaPrint we are proud to offer you this beloved stationery at an accessible price.
