When browsing invitation designs, you will probably notice that most are available in a standard 5″x7″ size (also know as “A7” size). Although other sizes are certainly available, Banter & Charm follows tradition and offers all invitations and save the dates in the standard A7 size. Why? Well, there are a few reasons but the main one is envelopes.
While paper is easy to trim to different shapes and sizes, envelopes come in specific sizes. In order to offer a wide variety of colored envelopes and the pretty envelope liners that go along with them, it’s best to stick to the standard sizes available.
Our 4bar response card fits inside the 4bar size envelope (5.125″x3.625″).
Additional sizes are available for items that aren’t mailed individually: Insert cards are offered in A6 size, A2 size, 4bar size, and Mini size (business card sized). We also offer a 2″ square size that can be used as a seal or favor tag, and a 3.875″x 9.25″ size for programs and menus.
DIE CUT SHAPES
You can add a unique finish to your stationery without changing the size by choosing a die cut shape!
A custom die is used to trim the paper into various shapes. Standard options are shown below, but custom shapes are available.
