Don’t be a square! We can cut your cards to any shape using a custom die! We made these promotional cards for Richard’s Rainwater during SXSW, and it was the perfect way to set them apart from all the other people handing out cheapo rectangle flyers. Corners are so dumb, right?

Richard’s Rainwater is an awesome local company based out of Dripping Springs, TX

We’ll tell you right now, the setup for die-cutting is a little bit pricey, so it’s best suited for larger orders (250+ pieces) so you can get plenty of shapely bang for your buck. Got questions? Shoot us a message and let’s see if die-cutting is right for your next project!

Did you know we can print AND mail your items for you? We offer a range of mailing services, including:
– Custom Address Labels
Data Merging recipient addresses for envelopes and postcards
– Custom envelope designs with your return address
– Full service EDDM (Every Door Direct Mail Campaigns)
– Stuffing, Stamping, and Post Office Dropoffs

EDDMs are usually large postcards like this one. You can choose routes in your target zip codes, and every house on that route will receive a postcard.

Whether you are mailing an elegant invitation suite, or a simple postcard, let us do the work! All you need to do is send your mailing list, and we’ll do the rest! We do also sell targeted mailing lists, so if you’re interested in doing a mailing campaign to drum up some new business, drop us a line with a little info about your ideal customer and we’ll get you an estimate!

One of the best upgrades to make your items feel high end is raised metallic foil. It automatically comes with a special suede lamination that gives a unique and memorable feel, and is surprisingly affordable compared to traditional foil and embossing techniques. And the best part? The minimum order is only 100 pieces!

Our pop up banners come in two stand styles: Standard ($189) and Deluxe ($225). Both are 33″ x 81,” the only difference is the deluxe stand is a little more smooth and shiny, and takes 5-7 business days, and the standard has perpendicular feet and can be ready in just 2-3 business days.

This raised metallic look is created by lining up embossing and red hot foil.

There are so many options for customizing your business cards that there’s just no excuse for handing over something bland and generic. Here’s some tips to make sure your design looks awesome:

These super cool cards feature both embossing and spot UV treatment.
  1. Be consistent with your branding; your business cards, stationery, brochures, and website should all use the same 2-3 fonts and colors.
  2. Don’t use COMIC SANS or PAPYRUS 😀
  3. Try unexpected type direction or card orientation, or maybe even a custom shape
  4. The things that should sing the loudest are your company name, then your name, then all your contact information
  5. Don’t clutter up your card with excessive information or qualifications. Your card should answer the questions 1) Who Are You? 2) What do you do? 3) How can I reach you? Conversation and a brief perusal of your flyer or website can do the rest.
  6. Take advantage of the many customization options offered at Global:
  • Rounded Corners
  • Extra thickkk stock
  • Plastic or Metal cards
  • Embossing/Debossing
  • Custom Shapes
  • Spot UV coating (makes only certain areas shiny)
  • Raised Spot UV coating
  • Metallic Foil (any color)
  • Raised Metallic Foil (Gold, Silver, Copper, or Holographic)
  • Special Cutouts
  • Painted Edges
  • and most importantly custom design!
