What Is a Memorial Card?

A memorial card, also known as a prayer card or sympathy card, is a small, portable tribute that serves as a reminder of a loved one’s life. These cards are often given out at funerals, memorial services, or celebrations of life, and they usually feature a picture of the deceased, an inspirational quote, a favorite poem, or a religious verse.
At DisciplePress, we understand the importance of honoring your loved one’s memory. We offer Prayer Cards, Folded Memorial Cards and Sympathy Cards to help you create meaningful tributes.
At DisciplePress, our memorial cards are 2.5″x4.25″ and can be customized to reflect the unique personality of your loved one. You can choose from a matte or glossy card stock, with an option to have them laminated for added durability. The lamination does not extend beyond the edge of the card, providing a clean and professional look.
Our printing services also include same-day printing for orders placed before 12pm CST Monday-Friday, and free 2-day shipping for orders over $50. We understand that time is of the essence during these moments of grief, and we are committed to delivering your personalized memorial cards in a timely manner.
Customizing Your Memorial Card
One of the key features of DisciplePress Memorial Cards is the option to fully customize your card. You can add your own text and photos, move, rearrange, and format anything you want. This allows you to create a card that truly reflects the life and personality of your loved one.
If you choose to customize the card yourself, simply click on “Next: Customize online” after completing the drop-down menus below. You will then be directed to our online customization tool where you can edit the design by replacing the stock photos with your photos, and the placeholder text with your text.
We also offer a “Customize for me” option. If you select this, you will complete the drop-down menus below, add the product to your cart and checkout. Immediately after checkout, you will see a form to submit your text and photos. Alternatively, you can email your content to us. Our team will then set up your design and email you a proof, usually within a few hours, depending on the time of day you submit the content. Once you receive the proof, you can request as many changes as needed until you are completely satisfied.
Tips for Personalizing Your Memorial Card
Personalizing your memorial card can be a therapeutic process, allowing you to reflect on the special moments you shared with your loved one. Here are some tips to help you create a meaningful tribute:
Creating a meaningful tribute for your loved one is an important part of the healing process. Our selection of Sympathy Cards and Memorial Bookmarks, along with our Same-Day Printing, help families create meaningful tributes during difficult times.
1. Choose a photo that captures their spirit: The photo is often the focal point of the memorial card. Choose a photo that best represents your loved one – their smile, their eyes, or a photo of them doing something they loved.
2. Include a favorite quote or poem: If your loved one had a favorite quote or poem, include it on the card. This can add a personal touch and serve as a reminder of their values and beliefs.
3. Use meaningful symbols or motifs: If your loved one had a favorite flower, animal, or symbol, consider incorporating it into the design. These little details can make the card more personal and meaningful.
