Description
Upload your custom laser cut shape and we will cut it from the paper of your choice. Choose from over 170 colors of specialty cardstock and text weight paper in two size options. This is laser cutting only. If you also need printing on your shape, see our Printed Custom Laser Cut Paper Shape instead.
Processing time: 1 to 4 business days.
Common Uses
Custom laser cut shapes are popular for invitations, menus, programs, place cards, favor tags, monograms, and decorative layers. If you can design the shape, we can cut it.
File Requirements
Upload a vector PDF containing only the cut line. Your file should use strokes only (no fills) with the stroke weight set to 0.01 points. The artboard should be 1 inch larger than your shape on all sides, with the shape centered. For shapes with intricate details or thin areas, keep at least 1/8 inch of space between lines. For full details, read our Print/Laser Shape Guide.
Size Options
Choose from two size tiers: Small (5.25" x 7.25" or smaller) or Large (up to 9" x 10.75"). Larger shapes are priced higher.
Paper Thickness
You can choose between cover weight cardstock and text weight paper. Cardstock is the most common choice for invitations, menus, and programs. Text weight paper is thinner and works well for liners, belly bands, and overlay pieces.
Order a Proof First
We recommend ordering a proof before placing a bulk order to make sure the cut, paper, and detail level meet your expectations. Proofs for this product are ordered separately. Order a Single Proof Here.
Visible Hazing
Laser cutting can leave a light brown haze near the cut edges, which is especially visible on lighter colored papers. This is a normal part of the laser cutting process. Learn more about laser hazing here.
