03 / Personalized notecards
For the thank-you, the thinking-of-you and the note with no occasion at all. Personalized notecards begin with your name and leave room for your voice.
A full name, initials or a short line of wording: note exactly what you would like personalized. Check spelling and punctuation, including any accents that matter to you.
Think about how prominent that detail should feel. A small introduction and a bold statement leave different impressions.
Do you tend to write a few lines or fill the page? Describe the way you expect to use your notecards so the balance between personalization and open space is part of the brief.
The point of the card is the message you add. Start with that habit, then consider the design around it.
A starting sentence
“I’d like notecards for ___,
personalized with ___,
with a feeling of ___.”
Fill in those three blanks for yourself. They are enough to begin organizing a custom notecard idea.
