At You Said It, we’re all about helping you design cards that stand out, resonate with customers, and bring smiles to faces. We’re excited to announce a brand-new feature for our designers: personalised text cards! This exciting addition allows customers to add their own personal touch to your designs by customising the text elements. Whether it’s a heartfelt message for Mum and Dad or a cheeky joke for a mate, personalised text cards open up endless possibilities for creativity and connection.

Why personalise? Personalisation adds a layer of uniqueness that customers love. A card isn’t just a card anymore — it becomes a keepsake, a treasured memory, or the perfect expression of a moment. By offering personalised options, you’re not just showcasing your artistic flair; you’re creating meaningful products that your audience can’t resist. So, if you’ve been waiting for an opportunity to take your designs to the next level, this is your moment!

What are personalised text cards?

Personalised text cards are designs that allow customers to customise specific text elements. As the designer, you have complete control over where these text elements are placed, how many there are, and their visual style. You can choose the size, colour, font, and even adjust letter spacing to ensure your design maintains its original aesthetic.

How do I create personalised text cards?

Creating personalised text cards is easy with our step-by-step process. Lindsay has also put together a short video tutorial to guide you through:

Here’s a quick breakdown:

1. Log in to your designer dashboard.
2. Click ‘Add new product’.
3. Select ‘Personalised text card’.
4. Upload your file, ensuring you leave space for personalised text.
5. Click ‘Add text’ and select the edit button.
6. Adjust the position of the personalised text using the preview image (measured in millimetres).
7. Enter placeholder text for the mock-up example.
8. Specify the maximum text length to ensure your design looks polished.
9. Choose text options such as font, size, colour, etc.
10. Click confirm, and your personalised card design is ready!

Can I use my own fonts?

Absolutely! As long as your font has the appropriate usage rights (free to use or commercial), you can upload it to our system. Simply go to the designer portal, click ‘Fonts’ in the top navigation, and then select ‘Add new font’.
