Free printable cards – 123printcards.com has moved to mescards.com

123 Print Cards has changed homes and you can now find all of the same cards, card makers and more at the new site MES Cards.com .  MES Cards has birthday cards to print , Christmas cards, Valentine’s Day cards, Mother’s Day cards, Father’s Day cards, Graduation cards, Thank you card templates and more!  There is a free online card maker that lets you make your own printable cards with personalized text, different card layouts, or you can delete all of the text and just make blank greeting cards to print.  Below are a couple previews of the card you can print:

There are cards with cute illustrations, cards with photo covers, funny cards, holiday cards, sports cards, nature and animal cards, as well as printable cards for kids.  Each section of the site has 8-20+ different templates and covers to choose from.  Some of the cards are good for children and there are plenty of printable cards for adults or teens as well.

When you click on a template, the card maker will open in a new window.  You’ll see options for adding your own message to different sections of the card.  you can add a title like “Happy Birthday!”, “Thank you!”, “I miss you!”, “Merry Christmas”, or any greeting you’d like.  You type a message right on the card or just leave it blank and write you wishes and thoughts in by hand for a more personal touch.  At the bottom, you choose the style of card you like and then hit the “make it” button.  You’ll see you card all ready to print out.  If everything looks the way you’d like, print the card just like you would print a page off the internet.  If you want to make any changes, just hit the back button and edit the template.  You can print as many copies of the card as you need or just hit back and make as many different versions as you need, personalizing each card for your friends and family.

If you haven’t already, please update any bookmarks or links to the site. www.123printcards.com has changed to www.mescards.com .  MES Cards has all of the same printable greeting card templates as before and a few new card templates as well.  I’m very excited about the new home and I will be adding more and more card template choices over the next year.  If you have any suggestions or questions, please post a comment below.  I’d love to hear from you!
