The paper is glossy on the outside and matte on the inside and appears to be very durable. It has a good feel in my hand and looks of great quality. Since I created this card I had very high expectations in terms of printing quality and I have to say that Zazzle met and exceeded them. The outside print is glossy and crisp and tack sharp. The inside is a matte print but nonetheless both sharpness and colors are spot on.

I was searching high and low for an invitation that went with a fire theme (account my mom wants 70 real live burning candles on the cake) surprise birthday party. I found these and couldn’t buy them quick enough! They far exceeded my expectations! One word of caution is that they default to matte so if you want glossy finish you have to manually select it. I only changed where the 2 clip art pics were located to make space for the text. I even used the default font for the design. Comes with nice white envelopes that don’t need the upgrade. The feedback from the invitees has been amazing. Thanks Cathy for an amazing product!! *please note I redacted sensitive information on the pictures with black mark out. .

I have ordered many cards from Zazzle and the quality is outstanding. They design and deliver expeditiously. I highly recommend them. The printing was beautiful.
