Foldable Birthday Card Template

If you want the look of a folded greeting card without wrestling with page layout, this is the shortcut. Foldy Cards positions your artwork and inside message across the sheet so everything lands right-side up after two folds.

You bring the design; the template handles the geometry and gives you a clean PDF to print.

How to print and fold

No special supplies — just your printer and about two minutes.

  1. Customize your cardAdd your photo or artwork and type your message in the Foldy Cards editor. It's free and there's no account to create.
  2. Download the PDFDownload the ready-to-print PDF to your phone or computer. You can email it to yourself and print from anywhere.
  3. Print on letter paperPrint the single page on standard 8.5 x 11 in letter paper. Regular printer paper works; slightly heavier paper makes a sturdier card.
  4. Fold in half twiceFold the sheet in half, then in half again, and the panels line up into a folded card. Start to finish takes about two minutes.

Frequently asked questions

How does the foldable template work?
It lays your artwork and message out on a single letter page so that when you fold the sheet in half, then in half again, every panel lands right-side up.
What size is the finished card?
A quarter of a letter sheet — roughly 4.25 x 5.5 in — the classic quarter-fold greeting card size, with no cutting required.
Do I need scissors or glue?
No. The card is made with two folds only — no cutting, taping, or gluing.
Can I change the artwork and text?
Yes, both. Swap in any image for the front and edit the inside message before you download the PDF.
