Frequently Asked Questions

What makes Brown Kraft Announcement Cards different from regular announcement cards?
Brown Kraft Announcement Cards use naturally colored 18pt kraft cardstock instead of traditional white paper. The visible fibers, subtle flecks, and warm brown background give them a distinctive rustic appearance.

What is white ink used for?
White ink can create white lettering and graphics or be printed beneath other colors to improve their visibility against the brown paper.
