Common Issues We Solve
Flimsy, Forgettable Business Cards That Get Tossed
Thin, low-quality business cards often end up in the trash because they don't feel worth keeping. Graphic Works offers premium card stocks and specialty finishes that give your cards a substantial, professional feel — the kind that people actually hold onto and remember long after your initial meeting.
Inconsistent Branding Across Printed Materials
When your business cards, letterhead, and envelopes don't match, it undermines your brand's credibility. Our team ensures color consistency and design cohesion across your entire stationery suite so every printed piece works together to reinforce a single, professional brand identity.
Poor Print Quality from Online-Only Printers
Online print services often deliver inconsistent color accuracy and quality control issues that only become apparent when your order arrives. With Graphic Works, you work directly with a local Lake Charles print professional who reviews your files, corrects issues before printing, and stands behind the quality of every job we produce.
Premium Paper Stocks and Specialty Finishing Options
The tactile experience of your business card or stationery is just as important as the visual design. Graphic Works offers an extensive selection of paper stocks and finishing treatments that elevate your printed materials from ordinary to exceptional. Our premium stocks range from classic gloss and matte finishes to soft-touch coatings that feel luxurious in hand, as well as textured papers that add a distinctive character to letterhead and correspondence cards. For businesses that want to stand out even further, we offer specialty finishing options that add dimension, shine, and elegance to any printed piece. Our team will help you select the combination that best represents your brand and makes the impression you're looking for.
- Standard, thick, and ultra-thick card stock options available
- Matte, gloss, soft-touch, and textured paper finishes
- Specialty treatments including foil stamping, spot UV, embossing, and debossing
- Edge painting and colored core options for premium business cards
Custom Design Services for Business Cards and Stationery

Graphic Works has an experienced in-house design team ready to create or refresh your business card and stationery designs from the ground up. We start by understanding your brand — your logo, colors, fonts, tone, and industry — and translate that into polished, professional printed materials that make the right impression. If you already have existing brand guidelines or artwork, we can work within those parameters to ensure your printed pieces align perfectly with your other marketing materials. We provide digital proofs for your approval before any job goes to press, giving you full confidence in the final product.

Frequently Asked Questions
What file formats do you accept for business card and stationery printing?
We accept most standard graphic file formats including PDF, AI (Adobe Illustrator), EPS, PSD (Photoshop), and high-resolution JPG or PNG files. For best results, we recommend submitting print-ready PDF files with bleed and crop marks included, using CMYK color mode at a resolution of 300 DPI or higher. If you're unsure about your files, just bring them in or send them over and our team will review them and let you know if any adjustments are needed before printing.
What is the standard turnaround time for business cards?
Standard business card orders are typically completed within 3-5 business days after artwork approval for most stock options. Orders with specialty finishing treatments such as foil stamping, embossing, or spot UV may require additional production time, generally 5-7 business days. Rush turnaround is available in many cases — contact us as soon as possible if you have an urgent deadline and we'll do our best to accommodate you.
What is the minimum quantity for business card orders?
We typically offer business card printing in quantities starting at 250 cards, which is a great starting point for individuals and small businesses. We also offer larger quantities such as 500, 1,000, and beyond, which generally provide better per-unit value. For corporate accounts needing cards for multiple employees, we can manage bulk orders with varying name and contact information across the set. Ask us about our multi-employee business card programs.
Can you match the colors on my business cards to my existing brand colors?
Yes, color accuracy is a top priority for us. If you have specific Pantone (PMS) colors defined in your brand guidelines, we can use those as a reference during production. For CMYK printing, we do our best to match your brand colors as closely as possible and provide a digital proof before printing so you can review and approve the colors before the job goes to press. If you need an exact color match with no variation, ask us about our specialty printing options.
Do you offer design services if I don't have a business card design yet?
Absolutely. Our in-house design team can create a professional business card or complete stationery suite design for you from scratch. We'll work with you to understand your brand, industry, and preferences, then develop design concepts for your review and approval. Design fees are separate from printing costs and vary based on the scope of work — contact us for a design consultation and we'll provide a clear quote upfront.
