At Colourcraft, we find fulfilment in projects that extend beyond business, and Passion AKL's community event was a testament to the positive impact print materials can have. Organised by the dedicated team at Passion AKL, a church committed to connecting people with their community and faith, the one-day event aimed to support residents in an Auckland social housing community.

We were asked to print materials for the event, using designs crafted by Joyce from Wonder Studio, a studio recognised for empowering brands that, in turn, empower people.

Joyce's thoughtful design, coupled with our commitment to quality, resulted in materials that resonated with Passion AKL's mission. We take pride in contributing to initiatives that bring communities together and were grateful for the opportunity to support Passion AKL in their admirable endeavours.

Whether you're launching a branded game for an event, creating a training tool, or developing your own playable card deck, we help bring your idea to life — one card at a time. Our clients range from government departments and game designers to agencies building experiential campaigns for their clients.

All cards are printed and finished in-house at our Wellington facility and delivered NZ-wide. No minimum order — so whether you need one prototype or a full production run, we’ve got you covered.

Why choose Custom Playing Cards?

Cards are a uniquely interactive medium — tactile, visual, and built for engagement. Ours are printed on 0.36 mm stock (thicker than most commercial decks), laminated with a durable matt finish and precision cut with rounded corners.

Need custom shapes, sizes, or boxes? No problem. We use digital die-cutting — no tooling required — so your game can look exactly how you imagined it. We also produce tuck-in cartons, two-piece boxes and fully custom packaging.

From environmental education to kapa haka celebration to bespoke art — we’ve helped bring all kinds of custom card decks to life. For Wilderlab’s eRangers game, we printed a durable, high-quality deck used in schools to teach students about waterways and environmental monitoring. For the Ministry for Culture and Heritage, we produced 500 sets of custom 36-card decks for Te Matatini — a kapa haka celebration delivered as a tactile, take-home experience. And when Kingsley Attwood, a designer and photographer, created a full 52-card deck with unique illustrations on every face, we helped bring his vision to print with accuracy and premium finishing.

Each project had a different story — but they all needed the same thing: a print partner who could get the details right.

Here’s what one of our clients said:

"Used Colourcraft to print off the cards for a board game I created. They were brilliant — very patient with my lack of printing knowledge and explained all the options clearly. The final product was perfect, really professional and great quality. Very happy with the service. Highly recommend using them." – Josh Scoulding
