Free printable retirement card

What to say on retirement cards

I created this cute hummingbird retirement card that you can download for free. I think it would make a good graduation card as well.

How to download the retirement card

Enter your name and email in the box below and we’ll send this free printable retirement card straight to your inbox!

This card is for personal use only.  You can print as many as you want to give to your loved ones but under no circumstances should you resell or distribute the file as your own design

You can print the card on standard 8.5″ x 11″ paper or cardstock. It will print with two cards on the page so you’ll need to cut the sheet in half after you print and then fold the two cards down the center.

The link below is an affiliate link, meaning, at no additional cost to you, I will make a commission if you click through and make a purchase.

The cards print on a standard 8.5″ x 11″ sheet of paper with two cards per sheet.  You’ll just need to cut the card sheet down the center and then fold the cards in half.  I would recommend using a cardstock to give the card some weight.

When printed on 8.5″ x 11″ cardstock, each card will be 4.25″ x 5.5″. This is the perfect size to fit in standard A2 envelopes!
