Custom Cardboard Cutouts Details
Customize a unique poster of yourself or someone you know to promote an event, reunion, celebrate a person of honor at a party, or to use as a stand-in for when someone can’t attend a function. All you need to do is upload a personal photo onto our site and we will do the rest. Select which height you want from several options for tabletop or floor display. The height can vary based on the photo submitted. We ship these life size cardboard cutouts with a protective framing around the standee that needs to be removed before setup. All orders also come with an easel, so your standee easily stands on its own. The cardboard is made from either an economical cardboard or a highly durable 4mm corrugated plastic material. We print on the cardboard standees using a modern digital printing technique that recreates your photos with vibrant colors that will not fade. Get the perfect, personalized gift, party decoration, or promotional material for your next big event with these high-quality custom cutouts.

Material Options
Our standees are offered with corrugated cardboard and 4mm corrugated plastic material options to accommodate different locations and uses. Think about where you will be placing your life size cardboard cutout and for how long when deciding which one to choose:
Cardboard
Our White B-Flute Corrugated Cardboard is an excellent choice for indoor displays, such as inside party venues and at store entrances. It comes at an inexpensive price, but the quality is not cheap. Our corrugated cardboard material is lightweight but more durable than your average store-bought cardboard. This is because the 1/8in thick material is not flimsy, offering you a longer life for your standee. Your photos will also show up well on the crisp white background so that your cardboard cutouts really stand out.Durable Corrugated Plastic
If you plan on moving your cardboard cutout around a lot or displaying it outdoors at a party, festival, or family gathering, we recommend choosing our 4mm corrugated plastic. This is our premium, ultra-durable material option. This material is tearproof, waterproof, and UV-protected, making your print and the material able to withstand a wide range of weather conditions for long-term use. Your custom photo will also show up nicely on the material that makes colors pop. This is the same kind of corrugated plastic that we use for some of our most popular outdoor products, like our yard signs.Photo Requirements

Choose Your Exact Size
Choose between getting small, tabletop sizes or life size cutouts. We have mini 6in-11in sizes that are perfect decorations for tabletops at weddings, trade show conferences, and store checkouts. If you are looking for life size versions, we also have larger 1ft-7ft height options, down to the exact inch. Get the actual size of a dog, a small child, a teenager, or a full-grown adult so that your cutouts can seem more lifelike. Usually, these large cardboard cutouts are displayed at the entrance of parties, weddings, and stores. Keep in mind that our large size options ship folded in half to save you money on shipping costs. All prints will arrive with a protective framing around the cut shape. Carefully remove the perforated framing from around the edges before setting up your personalized standees.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the turnaround time?
Our standard turnaround time is 3 business days. We offer rush production and expedited shipping options at checkout if you need your custom cardboard cutouts as soon as possible. To preview of estimated delivery dates, click the “Estimate Delivery” button at the top of the page.
How do I upload a photo?
Click the “Get Started” button above and upload your image. We will email you a free design proof of for your approval. Once approved, we will begin printing your lifesize cardboard cutouts.
How do these cardboard cutouts stand up?
All orders include easels so that they easily stand on flat surfaces. The easel is only visible on the non-printed side and is made from the same material as the cutouts. The standee comes with supports on the back that the easel fits into.
How are these printed?
Your photos are digitally printed onto the material, which offers sharp, vibrant colors that will not fade or peel, even when set up outdoors. As a premium cardboard cutout maker, we also use full CMYK color printing, which allows you to include as many colors as you want in your design without affecting the price, making it perfect for printing photos.
Can I use these cutouts outdoors?
Yes! Use our beefy stakes to install the custom cardboard cutouts in the ground. The bottom of the stakes pushes into the soil while the top inserts between the layers of the cardboard. Depending on the size of your standee, you may need several stakes to fully support the display.
How do I set them up?
These cutouts of people are easily set up without tools. They ship flat and are scored and folded in half for sizes 3’ and larger. Strong adhesive tabs are included for displaying your cardboard stand. A perforated frame is placed around the print for protection. When you are ready to use them, carefully remove the frame. The included easel fits into the supports on the back. Navigate to our “Assembly Instructions” tab above for a step-by-step guide on how to set up your custom cutouts.
