Design Tips For 6” x 9” Envelopes
It’s not enough to just put your logo and company name on your 6” x 9” envelopes. If you want to make a big statement, you need to think out of the box.
Here’s how:
- Take inspiration from your company logo, fonts, colors and themes.
- Pick a layout for your printed envelopes that combines and showcases your visual elements and design direction.
- If you are starting from scratch, it’s a good idea to hire a graphic designer to help you put your ideas to paper.
A good design can help generate more business for you. Cohesively presenting your company solidifies your authority and legitimacy in your line of business. Sending out custom-printed envelopes to carry your important message helps you achieve that.
Q&A
What does “Printing Turnaround” mean?
“Printing turnaround” is the number of days it takes to produce your order. This starts once your print-ready artwork has been uploaded, and you’ve approved a hard copy or PDF proof. All turnaround days are based on working days and don’t include holidays, weekends, shipping time or direct mail processing time.
What is the difference between 1-color and full-color printing?
Full-color printing uses thick, heavy-duty 70 lb. opaque paper for its 6” x 9” envelopes. Your design can be printed on both the exterior front and back of these envelopes, but the envelope remains a crisp white.
1-color printing offers three ink color options: black, reflex blue, or standard red. Standard 24 lb. white paper is used for the envelopes, and your design can only be printed on the front. 1-color printing has a non-bleed print, so a thin white margin is retained on the edges.
What is a “gummed flap”?
A “gummed flap” refers to the sealing method of these 6” x 9” envelopes. The envelope flap features a thin layer of water-soluble gum that needs to be moistened to seal the envelope permanently.
Do you have 6x9 envelope templates?
Yes! We do have free-to-use envelope templates. Just go to the “Templates” section under the ”Select Print Options” section and pick a template. You can edit them according to your own design ideas.
