✨ Design Details

Steel & Gold Memorial Prayer Card Template — Industrial / Dark / Gold / Masculine

The front carries the same dark, smoky atmosphere as the companion funeral program — bold gold "In Loving Memory" header, the welder's image, and the name set large and proud beneath it. The back holds the 23rd Psalm against the welder background, fully editable if your family prefers a different scripture or poem. Coordinates beautifully with the Steel & Gold funeral program, guest book, bookmark, and thank you card.

✨ 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:
  • 4-Up Letter sheet (Pages 3–4): select Flip on Short Edge
  • 9-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 2.75" × 4.5" cards.
