Imported Blue Cards | Three Blue Stocks • Silver/Gold Ink • Hot Foil Stamping

Looking for name cards that are understated yet instantly memorable? Blue card uses the stock colour as the background, so there is no need to print large areas of dark colour. Pair it with silver or gold ink, or hot foil stamping, for a clean, timeless finish with naturally blue edges.

Finished size: 90×54mm 3 imported blue stocks (textured/fibrous/smooth) Recommended: silver ink / gold ink / hot foil stamping Advantage: use the stock colour as the background, avoiding the risks of large dark solid areas
Quick Selection (decide in 30 seconds)

1Corporate Style • Safest Choice: Blue Card + Double-sided Silver Ink

High contrast and easy to read; especially suitable for brands with a dark-blue identity, giving a clean, professional finish.

2Textured Style: Monteli Blue (fibrous) + Hot-foiled Logo

Use the stock texture to add depth and keep text and graphics simple; a small area of gold or silver foil adds a premium touch.

3Premium Minimalism: Smooth Blue + No Ink (Hot Foil Stamping Only)

Ideal for one logo and one line of text; generous negative space makes it look even more refined.

How to Choose from Three Paper Stocks (match the stock to its purpose)
Paper Stock Feel / Visual Features Best For...
360gsm Imported Monteli Blue Card
Strong fibre / paper texture
Subtle visible fibres and a natural paper feel give it the strongest artistic character. Design, art or brand identity cards; looks best with hot foil stamping or silver ink.
300gsm Imported Blue Linen Card
Crosshatched embossing
The surface has a crosshatched texture that catches the light and adds depth; avoid very small, ultra-thin text. For a textured but understated look; hot foil stamping the logo or name adds a premium touch.
300gsm Imported Blue Card (Smooth Blue Card)
Smooth surface
Clean and crisp, and best for sharp text; choose this for a minimalist, corporate look. Business name cards or high-volume distribution; silver or gold ink gives the clearest text.

Tip: If your design has a large dark background, using blue stock as the background is much more reliable. There is no need to print a large dark solid area, giving a cleaner result.

Printing / Hot Foil Stamping Tips (the best ways to use blue card)
✅ High-contrast colours look best
  • On blue stock, use silver / gold / white for information (clearest)
  • Colour printing requires a white ink underbase (print white first, then colour)
  • Avoid very thin text; at least a medium to semibold weight is safer
✅ Silver / Gold Ink: Clean and Practical
  • Double-sided silver ink: the most versatile and professional
  • Double-sided gold ink: warmer and more premium
  • Suitable for more detailed information (phone/address/QR code all remain clear)
✅ Hot Foil Stamping: Most Premium, but Use It Wisely
  • Gold/silver foil offers the strongest metallic finish: best for logos or names
  • Avoid large areas of full-coverage foil stamping (imperfections are more visible on textured stock)
  • For confidence, order a proof / small trial run before a full production run

Size & Bleed (use these specifications for reliable artwork submission)
Trim size: 90 × 54mm Bleed size: 96 × 60mm Safe area: 84 × 48mm Keep text at least 3mm from the edge
The strong visual presence of blue card works best with minimal text and plenty of negative space. If adding a QR code, remember to leave a quiet zone for reliable scanning.
Pre-press Notes (5 Quick Points)
1
Minor batch-to-batch colour variations: Imported paper may vary slightly in colour between batches, which is normal. For long-term consistency, produce the full quantity from the same batch.
2
Avoid direct colour printing on blue stock: Colours will be affected by the stock; accurate colour reproduction requires a white ink underbase.
3
Large solid areas are risky on textured stock: Whether ink or foil, large full-coverage areas are more likely to show gaps or mottling. Use the paper colour as the background and keep graphics simple.
4
Use heavier weights for small text: Linen or fibrous stock can lose fine details; avoid ultra-thin type and very fine lines.
5
Order a proof before full production: Especially with hot foil stamping or highly precise results, a trial run first is safest, as correction options later are limited.

FAQ
Q: How do I choose between the three blue stocks (Monteli/linen/smooth)?
Choose 360gsm Monteli Blue for an artistic, fibrous paper feel; choose 300gsm Linen Blue for a layered texture; choose 300gsm Smooth Blue Card for the clearest, most corporate look.
Q: What is the difference between silver/gold ink and silver/gold foil?
Silver / gold ink is a printed ink layer, delivering a clean, practical result that keeps detailed information clear; hot foil stamping transfers metallic foil for stronger reflection and a more premium finish. The safest approach is usually to use silver/gold ink for the content and foil on the logo or name as a focal point.
Q: Can blue card be printed in full colour (CMYK)?
Yes, but the blue background affects colour accuracy. Accurate full-colour reproduction requires a white ink underbase (print white first, then colour), increasing cost and production steps.
Q: Why do you recommend avoiding large solid areas?
Dark backgrounds combined with heavily textured or absorbent stock make large solid areas (ink or foil) more likely to show gaps, mottling or loss of detail. The best way to use blue card is to use the stock colour as the background, keep graphics simple and use silver/gold ink or foil as highlights.
Q: What is the estimated lead time?
Generally around 4 working days (depending on artwork/finishing/quantity). For urgent orders, WhatsApp us with your required delivery date and we will recommend the most reliable arrangement.
