A color filter substrate for a liquid crystal display (LCD) includes a substrate having a non-pixel region and a pixel region, a black matrix and a light blocking color filter layered in the non-pixel region, and a color filter arranged in the pixel region. The light blocking color filter may be formed simultaneously with the color filter, and may include color filter material having light blocking properties at various wavelengths to supplement the light blocking properties of the black matrix. The light blocking color filter occupies a portion of the non-pixel region and has a thickness so that the black matrix in the non-pixel region may have a thickness that is less than a thickness of the color filter arranged in the pixel region.
