Brown Kraft Bookmarks
For a homegrown, personalized touch! Brown Kraft paper is light brown with natural fibers and subtle visible flecks lending it a natural, organic look and feel. The uncoated smooth finish provides excellent print quality, while the colored stock adds warmth and a rustic appeal to images. Optional white ink can be applied in specific areas or all over giving you the flexibility to add contrast and brighten images. Brown Kraft is 100% recycled with a minimum of 30% post-consumer waste content.
Please be aware that recycled and colored stocks may have slight color variation due to the materials used to manufacture the paper. The flecks in the paper will also vary from sheet to sheet and press run to press run.
Brown Kraft has the option to add white ink as an overprint. The white will be a base for the CMYK providing a bright white surface which will allow for vibrant, crisp color. Areas without white ink will appear darker due to the color of the stock. Similar to Spot UV masks, White Mask files are separate from your artwork files. Black in the White Mask file indicates where white ink will be printed. Make sure to create your mask file the same size as your artwork file. This will prevent alignment issues during printing.
Note: White Masks must be made in vector format and be saved as EPS or PDF. You may use gradients in the white ink mask file. Please be aware that anything less than 100%K will be transparent and allow the brown stock to show through.
Use vector paths/shapes to create black color areas that will indicate where the white ink base will go. The rest of the areas will show the Brown Kraft stock.
Remember the following when creating a white mask for your white ink base:
White ink base will be printed behind any color that’s in your Artwork Layer.
Areas with color but without a White Mask will be printed with color directly on the material.
Areas with color and a White Mask will be printed as opaque or solid color.
Areas with a White Mask and no color will be printed as white.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I create bookmarks for special events – weddings, birthdays or something else?
Yes. You can upload any designs you’d like – bookmarks are a popular custom favor for special events.
How can personalized bookmarks help me and my business?
Bookmarks are especially strong marketing options for businesses or organizations with a literary focus – bookshops, libraries, schools and more – but can help boost business for other businesses, too. They’re easy to use and reuse, book after book – which means your business information could be visible for years at a time. If you know your audience includes people who like to read, they’re a budget-friendly option to consider – you can keep a stack of bookmarks on your shop countertop or give one away with every purchase.
What information should I include on custom business bookmarks?
We recommend you keep your message simple and clear – keeping the front of your design focused on your business name, logo and a key piece of information – your address, phone number or website URL. With our 2-sided design options, you’ll have plenty of room to include extra information on the back – upcoming event lists, customer testimonials or a special offer.
