Your artwork is in safe hands with us.
As specialist event stationery printers, we'll always keep an eye out for obvious artwork problems before printing. For extra peace of mind, our optional artwork checks take a closer look at the important technical details — helping identify issues with bleed, sizing, resolution, colour setup and print quality, with options to have our team resolve issues before production.

Frequently Asked Questions

How should I supply my artwork?

To ensure the best print results, please check:

  • Supplied as a print-ready PDF
  • Set in a CMYK colour profile
  • Resolution of 300 DPI
  • Includes 3mm bleed on all sides
  • All fonts embedded or converted to outlines

What is bleed and why is it important?

Bleed is the extra artwork area added around the edge of your design. We ask for 3mm bleed on each side so that when your stationery is trimmed, the colour or background runs cleanly to the edge without any white borders.

Your artwork should be supplied at the final print size plus bleed. For example, if your finished card size is 148 × 105mm, your file should be set up at 154 × 111mm.

How do I set up cut lines for custom shapes?

If your design needs a custom shape, please include a cut line in your artwork. A cut line is a vector path that shows exactly where the item should be cut.

Place the cut line on its own layer, set it to stroke only with no fill, and position it exactly where you want the final shape to be cut.

This makes our service particularly suitable if you've designed your invitations using:

  • Canva

  • Another graphic design application
  • Artwork supplied by your own designer

Once your artwork is ready, choose your printing options and upload the file when ordering.

Premium Birthday Invitation Printing

The difference between printing invitations at home and having them professionally printed can be huge.

Professional printing gives your birthday invitations sharper text, stronger colour reproduction and a much more substantial finish.

Choose from our available card and paper options to find the finish that works best with your design.

Whether you've created a colourful children's birthday invitation, a sophisticated 40th birthday design or an elegant invitation for a milestone birthday dinner, you can select the stock that complements your artwork.

Choose Your Birthday Invitation Size

Choose from our available invitation sizes to suit your artwork.

Popular birthday invitation sizes include:

5 × 7 Inch Birthday Invitations

A classic invitation format with plenty of room for your design and party information.

A6 Birthday Invitations

A compact and popular invitation size, ideal for straightforward birthday party invitations.

A5 Birthday Invitations

A larger format for designs containing photographs, detailed illustrations or additional party information.

Square Birthday Invitations

Perfect for modern invitation designs and layouts created specifically in a square format.

Always create your artwork to the finished size selected when ordering and include the required bleed where applicable.

Birthday Invitations Printed From Your Own Artwork

Our Birthday Invitation Printing service is perfect if you've bought a digital invitation design online or commissioned somebody to create your artwork.

Simply download the print-ready file supplied by the designer and upload it when placing your order.

It's also a great option for Canva birthday invitations. Once your design is complete, export your artwork using the highest-quality print settings available and upload the finished file.

What Should I Put on a Birthday Invitation?

Most birthday invitations should include:

  • Name of the person celebrating
  • Age or milestone birthday, if relevant
  • Date of the celebration
  • Start time
  • Finish time, where appropriate
  • Venue
  • Full address
  • Dress code, if applicable
  • RSVP details
  • RSVP deadline
  • Any special instructions

You might also include information about food, parking, accommodation, gifts, children or whether the party is a surprise.

Printing Birthday Invitations Designed in Canva

Canva is one of the easiest ways to create your own birthday invitations.

Before uploading your artwork for printing, check:

  • Your document is the correct finished size.
  • Important text isn't positioned too close to the edge.
  • Images are high enough quality for printing.
  • Any backgrounds extending to the edge include sufficient bleed.
  • Your spelling, dates, times and contact details are correct.
  • The finished file has been exported at high quality.

For the best result, download a PDF Print file from Canva where possible.

Artwork Bleed

If your birthday invitation contains a background colour, photograph or graphic that reaches the edge of the finished invitation, your artwork should extend beyond the cutting line.

This additional area is called bleed.

We recommend providing 3mm bleed on each edge where required.

For example, artwork for a finished 5 × 7 inch invitation should include the additional bleed around the outside of the document.

Keep important wording and design elements safely away from the trim edge.

Need Your Artwork Checked? Not sure about bleed?

If you're unsure whether your birthday invitation artwork is ready to print, choose one of our available Artwork Check options when ordering.

An artwork check can provide additional reassurance before your invitations enter production.

Please remember that artwork checking does not replace proofreading. Names, dates, addresses, telephone numbers, spelling and all other supplied wording should always be checked carefully before submitting your order.

Why Professionally Print Your Birthday Invitations?

You've already spent time creating the perfect design. Professional printing gives it the finish it deserves.

Our birthday invitation printing service lets you:

  • Upload your own finished artwork
  • Choose your preferred invitation size
  • Choose from available card and paper stocks
  • Select the quantity you need
  • Print colourful or photographic designs
  • Order invitations for almost any birthday celebration
  • Have everything printed professionally rather than using a home printer

From a child's first birthday to a huge 50th celebration, simply supply the artwork and we'll handle the printing.

Paper & Card Stocks

Choosing the right paper can completely change the look and feel of your wedding invitations.

We offer a carefully selected range of smooth, textured, recycled and luxury wedding invitation card stocks, from affordable 300gsm Signature White through to premium Natural Fibre and Glacier White.

Stack of white card

STANDARD

Signature White 300gsm

Best for: Colourful designs, modern invitations, photographs and everyday wedding stationery.

Our Signature White 300gsm card is a smooth, bright white stock that gives wedding invitations a clean, crisp and professional finish. Its smooth surface produces sharp text and vibrant colours, making it a versatile choice for everything from minimalist designs to detailed illustrations and photography.

A great all-round wedding invitation paper, Signature White offers excellent print quality at an affordable price and works particularly well when your design relies on accurate, bright colour reproduction.

Stack of naturally white paper on a beige surface

PREMIUM

Natural Fibre 300gsm

Best for: Elegant, minimalist, botanical and contemporary wedding invitations.

Our Natural Fibre 300gsm card has a beautifully tactile, subtly textured surface that adds a premium feel without distracting from your design. Its natural character works particularly well with soft colours, delicate typography, line drawings and botanical artwork.

Choose Natural Fibre if you'd like your printed wedding invitations to feel a little more luxurious and tactile while retaining a clean, sophisticated appearance.

Hammer Texture Card

Premium

Heritage Hammer 280gsm

Best for: Traditional, romantic, vintage and classic wedding invitations.

Our Heritage Hammer 280gsm card features a distinctive hammered texture that gives wedding invitations a traditional, handcrafted appearance. The textured surface catches the light beautifully and adds character to simple typography, monograms, floral designs and classic wedding artwork.

It's an excellent choice if you're looking for a textured wedding invitation card with a timeless feel, particularly for traditional, country-house and romantic wedding styles.

Stack of brown kraft paper sheets on a white background

Creative

Rustic Grain 280gsm

Best for: Rustic, woodland, autumnal, boho and countryside weddings.

Our Rustic Grain 280gsm recycled kraft card has a warm, natural brown tone and visible character that creates a relaxed, organic finish. It's particularly suited to simple designs, bold typography and darker artwork where the natural kraft colour can become part of the overall design.

Because this is a coloured recycled stock, printed colours will appear differently than they do on white card. Choose Rustic Grain when you want the paper itself to make a statement and complement a natural or rustic wedding theme.

Please kindly note, we cannot print white onto this card.

Luxury

Glacier White 300gsm

Best for: Luxury, minimalist, monochrome and sophisticated wedding invitations.

Our Glacier White 300gsm card is a premium bright-white stock chosen for wedding invitations that call for a refined, high-quality finish. Its substantial feel and elegant surface give simple designs, fine typography and carefully considered artwork a particularly polished appearance.

Glacier White is an excellent choice for couples looking for a more luxurious wedding invitation paper, especially where understated design and premium presentation are the priority.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I print birthday invitations I've designed myself?

Yes. Our professional printing service is designed for customers who already have their own artwork. Simply choose your paper, size, quantity and print options, then upload your finished design when ordering. We'll professionally print and finish your birthday invitations here in the UK.

Can you print birthday invitations designed in Canva?

Absolutely. If you've created your birthday invitations in Canva, you can upload your finished design for professional printing.

For the best print quality, download your finished Canva design as PDF Print and include 3mm bleed where your design runs to the edge.

If you're unsure whether your artwork is set up correctly, choose one of our Artwork Check options when ordering.

Printing Birthday Invitations from Canva

Designed your birthday invitations in Canva? You can upload your finished design directly for professional printing.

For the best results, download your file from Canva as PDF Print, include 3mm bleed and make sure any background colours, photographs or artwork extend fully into the bleed area.

Once downloaded, choose the corresponding finished size, select your printing options and upload your PDF. If you're unsure whether the file is print-ready, select one of our Artwork Check options and we'll check the technical setup before production.

What file format should I upload?

We recommend supplying your birthday invitations artwork as a print-ready PDF wherever possible.

For the best results, artwork should be high resolution, ideally 300dpi, and include 3mm bleed where the design runs to the edge. Please ensure fonts are embedded or outlined before uploading your file.

What is the best paper for birthday invitations?

It depends on the look and feel you'd like to achieve. Signature White is an excellent all-round choice for crisp text and vibrant colours, while Natural Fibre and Heritage Hammer add more texture and character.

Rustic Grain works beautifully for natural and rustic designs, while Glacier White is ideal when you're looking for a more premium finish.

What sizes do you print birthday invitations?

We offer a range of popular print sizes including A7, A6, A5, 148 × 148mm square, 5 × 7" and DL where available for this product.

The best size depends on your design and the amount of information you need to include. Please refer to the size options shown above when configuring your order.

How many birthday invitations should I order?

You usually won't need one invitation for every guest. Start by counting the couples, families and households on your guest list, then add invitations for anyone receiving their own.

We recommend ordering around 10–15% extra for late additions, replacements, keepsakes and photography. Ordering a few spares with your main print run is usually more economical than placing a small additional order later.

Can you check my birthday invitations artwork before printing?

Yes. We offer optional Artwork Check services for additional reassurance before your order enters production.

Depending on the option selected, we can check areas such as sizing, bleed, resolution, colour setup, margins and other common print-production issues.

Can you print birthday invitations double-sided?

Yes, where double-sided printing is available for the product you can select it when setting up your order.

Double-sided printing is ideal when you'd like to include additional information on the reverse while keeping the front of your design clean and uncluttered.

How quickly will my birthday invitations be printed?

Our standard production turnaround is typically within 48 working hours once we have received suitable print-ready artwork.

Delivery time is additional and may vary depending on the delivery service selected. Artwork requiring amendments or additional checks may take a little longer before entering production.
