The Foldpic collection / Card
Photo thank-you cards you print and fold at home.
Make a thank-you card with the photo that shows what you are grateful for, write a real note inside, and print it at home on one sheet. Two folds later it is a proper card, and you can print a whole stack in one run.

The card is a quarter of the sheet: A6 from A4 on any home printer, A5 from A3 if your printer takes it. An A4 card would need A2 paper, which means a copy shop.
Why make a card at home
Thank You Kindly is a clean white design that lets one full-bleed photo carry the card, with a polaroid frame inside and a message block that reads like a letter rather than a verse. It works for wedding gifts, baby showers, teachers at the end of term and the neighbour who fed the cat.
If you need to thank a lot of people at once, the postcard format puts four thank-you postcards on one sheet and needs no envelope. For a single heartfelt thank-you, the folded card is the more personal choice.
A real note, not a verse
The inside is a message area and a signature line set in a quiet font, so your own words read like a letter.
Print the whole stack
Every copy folds the same way. Print ten for the wedding guests in one run and fold them in front of the TV.
Matching envelopes
Add envelopes, tags or a sleeve from the gift kit, sized to the card and in the card's colours.
Works on any printer
One side of one sheet, so no duplex setting to get wrong. Print at 100%, fold, done.
A few folds from finished
4 steps, printed on one side. The full instruction sheet with checks and a common-mistakes box comes with your PDF.
1Print the sheet. One page, portrait, 100% scale, one side.
2Fold the top half behind. Keep the print on the outside.
3Fold left behind right. Fold the left half back behind the right half so the front ends up on top.
4Press it flat. Put the card under a heavy book for a few minutes so it stays closed.

Card questions
Can I make wedding thank-you cards with a photo from the day?
Yes. Put your favourite photo on the front and a second one inside. If the photographer has not delivered yet, a phone photo from a guest works well.
What should I write in a thank-you card?
Name the gift or the help, say how you will use it or what it meant, and add one personal line. The story prompts in the editor can get you started.
How many cards come from one sheet?
One card per sheet. The quarter fold uses the whole sheet so the front, inside and back all get printed at once.
