A memorial card is a small and elegant funeral programs that can be created and distributed at any funeral service. It is an excellent choice for those who wish to provide a printed memorial on a smaller scale. The folded card measures 4.25 inches by 5.5 inches and folds directly down the center. It can be printed on a thicker paper, such as cardstock or heavier text weight paper.


To create a memorial card, you have two options: creating it from scratch or using a memorial card template. While creating it from scratch is a cost-effective choice for cards and funeral programs, it requires more setup work before you can begin designing your program. Due to the smaller size, memorial cards are set up in a software document with two cards per sheet. You will need to determine the fold lines and set them within the software you are using. Additionally, since there are two cards on each sheet, you will need to duplicate all the elements.


To avoid any technical issues that may arise, it is crucial to be familiar with the software you are using before starting your layout. The setup process can be time-consuming and complicated. Alternatively, you can bypass these steps by utilizing a memorial card template. We highly recommend the Funeral Program Site, which offers ready-made memorial card templates available for immediate download. The technical setup and background design are already completed, so all you need to do is enter your text and photos.
