Poly Graphics

When ordering invitations from Poly Graphics you have a choice of two different types of paper.

Our normal smooth paper or our linen paper.

These photos give you an idea of what the texture is like for each of these types of paper. These are zoomed-in photos – the smooth is much smoother to the touch than this photo looks. And the linen paper has the “woven” look that you see here, but the weave is not as big as it looks in this photo.

The linen paper is nice, has a nice feel, and comes with matching envelopes. Linen invitations and linen note cards cost 10% more than smooth invitations and smooth note cards. The linen paper and linen envelopes cost more to stock, that’s the reason for the 10% upcharge.

Each type of paper is also available in white or ivory (off-white, or natural) colors.

Let us know which you like best for your invitation order.

P.S. The linen paper works great for both formal invitations and informal invitations. We’ve done kids laser tag party invitations on linen paper and they look great.

We sell invitatons that look and act like Cell Phones. Just don’t try to text or make a call with them!

A party invitation that looks like a cell phone

These are a bit thinner than real cell phones. We can print any message on them that you like – in real english or in shortened texting words like “u r invitd” – make up what you want to say and we’ll draft them up for you.

These invitations are available in just about any color you want – see our cell phone invitation page for more details.

Cell Phone invitation in envelope

Our daughter picked these out for her birthday party invitations. One of her guests liked it so much that she kept it and played with it long after the party was over.

All text, graphics, and colors on this invitation, and all our invitations, can be changed to the way you like them. Try Poly Graphics – we’ll take care of you.

There are three different kinds of flaps on envelopes.

Business, Pointed and Square. Pointed and Square are also known as  “Baronial” and “A”

Pointed or "Baronial" (BAR) Envelope

Square, or "A"

Business Envelope

Envelopes are described by their size and flap.

For example, if you wanted to buy pointed flap envelopes for 5″ by 7″ invitations, you would request an “7 BAR” envelope.

If you wanted a square flap envelope instead, ask for an  “A-7″ envelope.

Poly Graphics uses a 7 BAR envelope for most orders. We also have an upgrade to an  A-7 lined envelope, with linings available in Gold, Silver, and Red.
