Free Printable Anniversary Cards Funny Black and White Sexy

Whether the day marks your first year of dating, your engagement, the date you moved in together or your wedding anniversary — it's important and so fun to celebrate the milestones of your relationship. Time flies by when you're having fun so acknowledge the continuous love you're receiving from your partner by making them feel special with a handwritten card on your anniversary. Before your anniversary comes up, take some time and reflect on what your partner means to you. You'll want your written words to reflect these feelings so give yourself some time to collect your thoughts.

If your friends or family members are celebrating an anniversary and you want to send them your well wishes, consider sharing an anecdote about a cherished memory with the couple. Maybe it's a funny story from the first time you met the significant other, perhaps an awesome road trip you all took together or you can write about something that stuck out to you on their wedding day that you've never even mentioned before.

If you're looking for a personalized card to write your words of encouragement and congratulations in, you've come to the right place! We've created six cards for any kind of partner or couple that you can download for free. Just press the download button below the card you think fits the lucky couple best (or just print all six by clicking on the button at the end of this article) and print the card on US letter-sized paper (8 ½ inches wide and 11 inches long). Then cut and fold the card according to the indications on the paper (so it fits into an A7 envelope) and write your personal note inside. All cards are available as colorful or black and white versions in case you want to save on your printer's ink.

If you're not great with words, use the quotes and wishes below as inspiration. You can read through them all or use the jump to the menu for a specific person you have in mind. Surprise your partner or the couple who's celebrating with a bouquet of flowers and your home-printed, handwritten anniversary card that they'll cherish forever.

What to Write In An Anniversary Card

Every relationship is different so tailor your card specifically for the recipient. Speak from the heart and depending on your relationship, be as encouraging, funny or romantic as you can. As you write, follow these steps for the perfect anniversary card.

1. Greeting: Start your card the right way and address the recipient with an appropriate greeting. For friends or acquaintances, use their first names. A card for your other half can start with their special nickname or a term of endearment. Address your parents or grandparents with "Mom and Dad" or "My loving grandparents" to make them feel special right off the bat.
2. Meaningful Quote: Adding a quote or message at the beginning of your card is a great way to start. Pick a card that already has a quote on it or add one of the many quotes listed below yourself.
3. Personal Message: The most important part of any card is the thought behind it. Whether you choose to add a quote or not, make sure the words you write come from the heart. If you are writing to your significant other, use this opportunity to tell them what they mean to you and how thankful you are for your time together. If you are sending congratulations to another couple, let them know how their relationship has impacted you and wish them many more happy years together.
4. Mention Milestones: While every anniversary should be a huge celebration, it is always nice to pay special attention to milestone anniversaries such as the first, fifth, 10th, 25th, 30th, 40th, 50th, 60th and 75th year. If the recipient of your card is celebrating one of these milestones, make sure to congratulate them.
5. Specific Encouragement: Don't forget to add well wishes to your card. It's a great opportunity to encourage them and wish them a life full of laughter or strength during times of hardship.
6. Closing: Make sure you wrap up your card with a warm closing. Use something simple like "Congratulations" or something a little more personal such as, "With love."

Now that we've established how to write an anniversary card, feel free to draw inspiration on what to write in your printable anniversary card from the wishes and quotes below!
