A die-cut card gets kept because it doesn't look like everyone else's. Cut your card into a circle, a rounded shape, or something that nods to your trade, and it stands out in the stack of rectangles on a homeowner's counter. For contractors trying to be the name that gets remembered, the shape does half the work.

We design special-shape cards that fit your trade and still hold the essentials: name, service, and a number sized to dial. Printed on heavy cover stock and cut to your shape, in gloss, matte, or a premium writable finish.

Often ordered with: Blank Letterheads, Business Card Magnets, and Business Cards.

Common questions

Are shaped cards worth the extra cost?
If being remembered is worth it, yes. A die-cut card survives the counter-pile cull because it looks different from every rectangle around it. For a card you hand out at estimates, standing out is the whole point.

Do shaped cards still fit in a wallet?
Most standard shapes stay close to 2 x 3.5 in so they tuck into a wallet or card slot. Larger circles and 4 x 6 shapes make more of a statement but won't fit a billfold.

What shape should I choose?
Pick one that fits your trade or logo and doesn't crowd out your number. A rounded or circle cut reads clean; leaf and half-circle shapes work when they tie to your brand.

Ordering print in Tampa Bay

Do you ship print orders to Tampa Bay?

Yes. Everything we print ships — to Tampa, St. Petersburg, Clearwater, Wesley Chapel, Brandon, or wherever your crew is working. Shipping time is on top of the print turnaround, and we confirm the total before you approve the proof.

How fast can I get signs or cards for a job starting this week?

Most orders proof within one business day and print in three to seven business days, plus shipping. Rush is available on yard signs, business cards and door hangers — put your date in the form below and we will tell you what is actually possible.

Will yard signs and banners hold up in Florida sun and humidity?

We spec UV inks and heavier stock on anything that lives outdoors in Florida. Tell us the sign is going in full sun or near salt air and we will recommend the material that lasts instead of the cheapest one.

Do I need artwork before I can order?

No. Design is included. Send a logo, a photo of your truck, or nothing at all, and our design team builds the artwork and sends you a proof before anything prints.

Ready to get it printed?

Send us your logo and we will handle artwork, proofing, and production. If you do not have artwork yet, our design team builds it for you.
