Designing Your A2 Folding Cards

The additional space provided by a folded A2 card makes it possible to include more information while maintaining a compact finished size. For Wedding Invitations, the inside can include ceremony and reception details, RSVP information, a wedding website or QR code, dress code, registry information, or other details your guests may need.

A2 Folding Cards can also be customized for graduations, baby showers, bridal showers, birthdays, anniversaries, corporate events, and other occasions. Use photographs, colors, typography, illustrations, logos, or other design elements to create an invitation that fits the style of your event.

For the best printing results, artwork should be supplied as a properly prepared, press-ready PDF at the appropriate opened-flat size with the recommended bleed.
