How will my design look on a pearl business card?

This paper works best with lighter-colored designs. Rich pops of a darker accent color print beautifully, but if your design is mostly black or dark grey, you’re less likely to see the full shimmer effect. And if your design uses photographs, you may want to consider a different paper stock.

How thick is pearl paper?

Out pearl business cards are made using a 16pt premium paper. Each point (pt) is equal to .001 of an inch, to give you a frame of reference.
