printing your gift card
How you print your gift card depends on what type of gift card
you have created.
• For our example, we created a two-sided gift card. For two-
sided cards, you print the front and back of the card on one
side of the paper. Then you put that paper back into the printer
to print the message on the inside of the card.
• One-sided gift cards are printed on the front and back only,
with one pass through the printer. The inside is left blank,
allowing you to write your personal message.
step 1: printing the front and back of your gift card
Note: Follow these instructions even if your printer has a duplex
(2-sided) printing option. Before printing, review the detailed tips
and instructions in the online topic called “printing your designs.”
Exactly how you make selections for printing depends on your
printer and the type of media you are printing on. Refer to your
printer’s help for more information.

1. Click the Phrases tab.

the card until you see a green highlight. Then release the
mouse button.

• Size: 36
• Align: Center
• Click the (bold) and (italics) buttons.

tip:
To learn how to feed paper in your printer so it
prints on the correct side and with the correct ori-
entation, use a blank sheet of plain paper and
write, “Top” and “Front” on it as shown here:
Now place this sheet into the printer paper tray and print
the outside of the card. Note the locations of your writing
relative to the printed output. Then, insert the sheet into the
paper tray again and print on the inside of the card.
