✨ Design Details

A Life From a Simpler Time Memorial Thank You Card Template — Mid-Century Modern Retro Nature

Deep teal, terracotta, and warm gold carry the same mid-century spirit as the companion funeral program, guest book, and prayer card. The front features the mountain and pine tree landscape, atomic starburst accents, circular photo placeholder, and a script tagline area. The back holds a fully editable thank you message — swap in your own words, a verse, or leave the sample text as a starting point. Coordinates beautifully with the full A Life From a Simpler Time memorial suite.

✨ Printing Tips

• Paper stock: Use 80–110 lb white cardstock. Avoid standard copy paper — it will feel flimsy and colors may bleed through on double-sided prints.
• Scale setting: Set scale to 100% or Actual Size. Do not use "Fit to Page" — it will shrink your cards.
• Double-sided flip setting: 2-Up Letter sheet (Pages 3–4): select Flip on Short Edge. 4-Up Tabloid sheet (Pages 5–6): select Flip on Long Edge.
• Home printing: Inkjet printers work well with coated matte or semi-gloss cardstock at your printer's highest quality setting. Print a test page first.
• Print shop: Email your downloaded PDF to Staples, FedEx Office, or Office Depot and ask for double-sided printing on 80–110 lb cardstock.
• Cutting: Use a paper trimmer and cut along the corner crop marks for clean, perfectly sized 4" × 6" cards.
