Color Core Uncoated Cards 37pt - Clubcard Printing USA

Triple-layered Color core cards are super thick and rigid cards measuring in at a colossal 37pt total thickness. These eye-catching cards are printed in full color on uncoated card stock and that is applied to a middle creating a dramatic stripe of color in red, orange, yellow, green, blue or black on each side of your card. 

Customize your cards to engage even more sensory appeal with optional debossed or embossed elements, die-cutting to a custom shape and foil stamping to enhance your designs with a selection of shiny or matte foils. 

Uncoated 37pt Color Core cards are priced out in several standard sizes including business cards, square cards, trading cards and 4" x 6" postcards. If you don't see the card size you're looking for, click on the custom quote tab and we'll send you a custom size estimate pronto!

This product has an estimated production time that will vary based on a variety of factors including additional custom finishes and current production schedules and is not meant for projects with critical deadlines.  We cannot change, speed up or cancel orders that are in production. Contact us BEFORE placing an order if you have a critical deadline. 

Supply Die Lines As Vector Files

Please supply your die line file in Vector format. If you need help preparing your die line, watch the tutorial video or select the option to have us create your die line for you.

Simple Shapes Save Money

The prices listed are for cards cut to simple custom shapes. If your cards require intricate cutting, we will need to provide a custom estimate. We will let you know if your die line requires a custom estimate during the file check process.

Foil Area Should Be Less than 2 Square Inches

Foil is based on an estimated foil size of around 1" x 2". Full foil coverage, or borders that go around the edge of the card require a larger die and would need to be custom quoted for the additional die size.

Foil Can Fluctuate

With the foil stamping, you can expect some slight shifting throughout the print run between the CMYK and foil layers -- there may be up to 1/16" shift on the placement of the foil. Keep this in mind if you are trying to align foil with other printed artwork on the card. The areas where there is tight registration between the CMYK elements and foil elements may not turn out as expected.

Fine Detail / Small Text Does Not Translate Well To Foil

Fine detail in foil stamped elements can fill in (the centre of an "e" or "a" in small type, or fine detail in an image or complex logo).

Leave Wiggle Room for Cutting

During the die-cutting process, there will be a degree of shifting of the cut. A good design leaves a 1/8" critical margin inside the trim line to compensate for this shifting. Art that extends to the edge of the card requires a 1/8" bleed.

Die Cut Holes or Space Between Die Cut Elements Need to Be 1/8"

Any hole or interior shape that will die cut needs to be at least 1/8" in diameter. Say you were die cutting a letter U shape, the aperture in the U (the space between the two stems) must be at least 1/8". Small cut like this may not be strip away during cutting but a gentle tap will knock it out!

Subdued Color

Uncoated stocks produce subdued, muted colors that may appear dull compared to coated stocks with low lustre aqueous or high gloss UV coatings.

These Cards Are Perfect For Writing On

Write up a storm! Unlike our coated options, these cards work perfect as stamp cards, appointment cards, or a business card that you can scrawl a note across the back. You've found a match.

Not The Best Stock For Small Text

Uncoated stocks are more grainy and fibrous than other stocks, so if you are looking for really sharp lines or micro text a coated stock will be up to that challenge.

Color Will Vary

The upside of club-run printing is the shared savings, the downside is that we adjust color globally to get the best overall color for shared jobs. This means the color of club-run printed items will vary through the run and will not match exactly on re-prints. Our Indigo printing service is better suited to color critical work.

Greys Can Shift

CMYK Process colors in the grey range and de-saturated images can shift in color throughout the print run and may cause the greys to appear either cooler or warmer. For a neutral grey, we recommend converting all grey values and de-saturated images to true greyscale consisting of K (black) only values.

Your Blue Might Not Really Be Blue

Due to the nature of club-run printing, you may experience color variation in solid fills of blue. For great blue results, we recommend a 30% difference between your Cyan and Magenta levels to ensure a nice rich dark blue, rather than purple.

Die Size Matters

The die-line must fit within the size ordered; for example if you order a 4" x 6" die cut card, your shape must fit within a 4" x 6" boundary.

Technical Specifications + Templates

Alternatively, if you would like to include these elements in the same file, place these elements on a separate layer and colored with a Pantone color (typically Pantone Black) that denotes the Foil Stamping.
Embossing / Debossing: Include a separate file/artboard with these elements colored with Pantone Black to denote the debossing or embossing. Alternatively, if you would like to include these elements in the same file, place these elements on a separate layer and colored with a Pantone color (typically Pantone Black) that denotes the Foil Stamping.
