Postcards, Notecards and Greeting Cards

Whether you want to send a card in memory of a life lost in service or an invitation to a Memorial Day event, there are Microsoft Word patriotic templates to make it easy.

Hand Over Heart Card

This template produces a single half-folding notecard. The front of the template features a silhouette of a person standing in front of a large American flag, with the right hand placed over the heart of the person. The inside of the card is blank, but you can add another page to the template and type a personal message before you print. You can then use your printer’s duplex setting, if it has one, or print the first side of the card, turn the paper around and replace it in the printer to print the inside of the card.
