Designing a 2.5 × 4 in oval label
A border that follows the oval looks classic, but keep it thick enough to hide a small shift in the cut. There is room for hierarchy here: one large element, one medium line and small supporting text.

How much do 2.5 × 4 in oval labels cost?+
Expect roughly $151.94 CAD for 1,000 matte roll labels at this size, which works out to $0.152 per label; 250 come to about $129.37. The table above lists more quantities. Your exact price, with standard shipping, appears in the quote builder as soon as you set the quantity.
How many labels per roll for 2.5 × 4 in oval labels?+
Typically about 770 to 1,200 per roll, based on one lane of labels on a 3 in core wound up to 6 in across. The range depends on whether the long or short side runs along the roll, which follows the unwind direction you choose. Bigger orders ship on more than one roll, and you can ask for a set count per roll in your order notes.
Is 2.5 × 4 in the same as 4 × 2.5 in?+
Yes. Enter the width and height the way your artwork reads; 2.5 × 4 and 4 × 2.5 in are the same price. For rolls, also pick the unwind direction so labels come off the roll the right way up for your product or applicator.
Oval or rectangle at 2.5 × 4 in?+
They are the same price on rolls. A 2.5 × 4 in oval has about 7.85 sq in of label compared with 10.00 sq in for the rectangle, so plan a centred badge layout and keep long lines away from the narrow ends.
