How to make a business card mockup
- Export both sides as flat images at the card's shape (for 85 × 55 mm, about 1004 × 650 px at 300 dpi). Leave out bleed and crop marks.
- Upload front and back. The front sits on top; the back is shown on the second card in the Front + back layout and in the Back view.
- Choose the stock. Standard is a normal 350 gsm card. Luxe gives a thick, painted-edge card in any colour.
- Pick a layout and download a PNG for your portfolio, or record a short video for Instagram.

Frequently asked questions
What does "Luxe edge" mean?
It shows a thick, multi-layer card with a painted edge, popular for premium visiting cards. Pick any edge colour to match your brand.
Do I need a back design?
No. Without one the back shows a simple dark design. Upload your real back to show both sides.
Should I include bleed in my upload?
No. Upload the trimmed card only. If your file has 3 mm bleed, crop it off so the edges line up.
Can I download a transparent PNG?
Yes. Keep the background on Transparent, pick PNG and click Download. The soft shadow stays in the file.
Is my card design uploaded?
No. Everything is rendered in your browser, so client details on a card never leave your device.
