example card

A lot of the work I do involves graphics and design, most of which ends up filtering over into my real, day-to-day life and its arrangements. That means I have all sorts of printed goodies laying around my flat, some of which is used (most of which is in the “really husband, I will do something with this stuff” pile). I made these free recipe card templates on a whim, thinking some of you might get a kick out of something bright, modern, and not a boring and typical 4×6 lined index card in your recipe catalogue. All of these cards are 4×6 inches, so will fit nicely in that aforementioned catalogue box thingie, or whatever it is you use (organised chaos, perhaps).

Now available in pdf format!

Based on feedback I wanted to both create a higher quality format and all the cards to be typed on for printing. The result is a pdf document, in which you can add your own text. Please be aware any text you type beyond the realm of the visible card will not show when printed. This seems like common sense but hey, you never know. You can type in and save this format to disk, too.

    I really liked these recipe card templates - they're pretty and easy to use. My only problem with them are the ruled lines. I guess if my type isn't going to print on them correctly, I'd just as soon have them blank, without the rule lines. Very fun cards though, thanks!

    Maybe I'm not seeing it, but I can't figure out to get the PDF form of this. Any help??? I was sent here by littenannygoat.blogspot.com

    Jacy,

    Thanks for commenting about this! Turns out I'd accidentally turned off some software which added a download link thingy (technical speak). It should be fixed now :) Thanks for letting me know.
  • Hi! I wanted to send you an email to tell you that I linked to your wonderful recipe card downloads on my blog, but when I click the Aout or Contact links I get an error. Anyway, I posted them on my blog simplyfunstuff.blogspot.com. Thanks for sharing!

    I love these cards but when I type it is just a plain font. I really like the font in your demo above. How do I change fonts? I cannot find an option for that?
  • Kip
    Hi Cheryl,

    Glad you like the cards! Unfortunately font licences come with all sorts of agreements, and most of them don't allow you to embed them in software without special permissions and/or extra payments (if at all). I respect any artist's work and always err on the side of caution, never embedding anything that isn't strictly mine.

    Hoping this will help someone...Just an update, I filled out the forms in pdf format and then did a print screen for each of the four cards. Then I pasted the print screen into Paint and cropped to 4x6 and printed one on a 4x6 photo card. The quality was perfect. Thank you so much for sharing these!
  • jennipenni
    These are absolutely beautiful. You are so talented!

    I'm wondering if there is an easy way to save each card as a jpg file after I fill it out? I have a huge credit at a photo center, but only for 4x6 pictures. I don't have Photoshop, so the only thing I've figured out so far is to copy your image here and past into paint and add a text box and save each one as a jpg file. Since you're obviously so super creative, I was thinking maybe there was an easier way?
  • Kip
    Hmm, good question... In order to save the images individually to take to a photo centre, your idea is probably as good as any other. Interesting idea, to get a photo place to print!
  • Thank you for sharing; these are wonderful =]

    I love these cards, they are just what I've been looking for...however, it makes it really hard that I can't save the PDF form after its been typed on. It is up to the author of the form to allow people to save the form....could you please consider it?

    Okay, I admit I am a computer idiot. Am trying to download to my iMac with no success. How do I 'right click and save' - is there some other command I should be using? Have tried to drag to desktop and open there, but comes over as a jpg file and won't let me type any info. Any suggestions?

    Hi Martha,

    I don't use a mac but it sounds like you're doing everything right. In order to type on the cards, however, you would need to open them in a program such as photoshop to edit (I originally made these cards to print and hand write on). Perhaps it would be better for you to download the pdf document in the post because you can type and print on the cards in there...
  • Martha
    I absolutely love your recipe cards and love the fact that there are different colors. I am planning to use the different colors for different food items like red-meat, green veggies,etc. Have you considered making a Vertical version?
  • They're lovely :) Thanks a lot!
