How to Print Funny Anniversary Cards
Anniversary cards are a very personal expression: You want to show your love and appreciation for your special someone, but sometimes the store-bought cards just don't measure up. Funny cards that say the perfect thing are often are hard to find, but one solution is to print one for yourself at home. Design it yourself on the computer, or choose an existing card from online. This increases your chances of giving the perfect humorous anniversary card to the one you love.
Instructions

1
Open a word processing program or paint program on your computer and pull up an empty document. Change the document to 'landscape' format so that you can fold it in half for a good card size.
-
2
Compose a joke, saying or verse on the document. Use a font size a bit larger than normal, such as an 18-point font.

3
Place the text on the document with a consideration of where you'll fold the card. If you are doing one simple fold, place the text on the right side of the paper.
-
4
Add any pictures or clip art to your card. Position the pictures so that they fall on the correct section of the card depending on the fold.
-
5
Send your document to print. If you want writing on both sides of your card, the inside and the outside, make sure that it prints on both sides of the same page.
