Free e-cards and free Printable cards


I am always looking for fun e-cards to send to loved ones and quite often, when I need a “real” paper card, I end up looking online for one I can print at the last minute before running out the door. Even with these “needs”, I have not been able to justify the cost of joining one of the online card companies. I guess I am just too cheap, plus I am not one who likes to give all my personal information to a website in order to print or send a card.

Then it happened, I discovered a new website called Got-free-ecards where they offerFree ecards and Free Printable Cards. Imagine how thrilled I was when Free ecards and momdot decided to sponsor a Jump Start Your Blog Contest and all I had to do was blog about this great website I had already found. So here it is, my review of this fun, new site.

Aside from Free Birthday Ecards, Got-free-ecards offers a wide variety of e-cards including love, sorry, miss you, friendship, thank you and congratulations, as well as seasonal holiday cards. The cards are cute and family friendly. You can even add your own photo and voice to the card.

For those times when you find yourself needing a paper card, they also offer Free Printable Cards in the same categories as the e-cards. You can also create your own cards with your uploaded pictures and their template (there is also an e-card using this option). They also have color your own printable cards like the one below that would be great for including in homeschool lessons.


The best part of all is that it is all FREE, no strings attached. No forms to fill out at all, not even your name or e-mail address. There is an optional spot to enter comments, but it is just that, optional. There is also no advertising on the site, so I can truly say these are free cards.

I know that I will be sending lots of these cards as birthdays approach and I am sure to print many as well. I am also looking forward to using some of the color-your-own cards as special projects for the kids. I hope you all enjoy this site as much as I do. Let me know what you think.

Disclosure: I just want to repeat that I am participating in the Jump Start Your Blog Contest” sponsored by got-free-ecards and momdot.
