2D and 3D religious postcards: what's the difference and what are the customization options?

Religious postcards, considered by some to be a true form of sacred art, are available in two formats, 2D and 3D, and offer numerous customization options.

2D  postcards are flat and two-dimensional, while 3D postcards have a three-dimensional effect thanks to the use of techniques such as pop-up. Religious postcards for special occasions are particularly appreciated at particular times such as baptisms and communions, as they lend themselves well to representing religious motifs to be shared with the recipient.

Also a great advantage is that they can be customized with images and texts that reflect the taste and preferences of the sender. For example, you can add the recipient's name or a meaningful religious quote. In this way they become a unique and personal gift.

The various types of paper used for religious postcards: advantages and characteristics

Sacred postcards can be made with various types of paper, each with its own characteristics and advantages.

  • Coated paper is one of the most used, thanks to its smooth and glossy surface that allows you to obtain sharp and brilliant images.
  • Cardboard, on the other hand, is a thicker and more resistant paper, ideal for creating postcards with a 3D effect
  • Canvas paper is characterized by the presence of a visible texture on the surface, which gives the paper a rustic and artisanal effect. Watermark is a paper decorated with floral or geometric patterns, which gives postcards an elegant and refined effect.
