We’re pretty sure your friends and family value your support -- during good times and bad. Our online encouragement cards offer a few heartening words during life’s challenges, both small and large, and they’re a cheer of support when something good is on the horizon.

Encouraging card messages

When it comes to encouragement, online cards can help you say exactly what’s needed. Our collection of virtual encouragement cards ranges from warm to cheesy (and every sincere sentiment in between). Puns and wordplay abound with funny encouragement cards from HelloLucky, Derek Blasberg, and more. For example, a collection of beets and other garden pals put a humorous spin on “rooting” for a friend, and even doodles of strange monsters add levity to telling your friend you’ll be by their side through the “nightmares.” Still, among the quirky designs, you can find cards that allow for more seriousness. These cards of encouragement support your friend or family member when they need a shoulder to lean on. Of course, while we get you started with ideas, adding a personal message is always a plus. Simply speak from the heart and let them know you’re there for whatever they need.

Make encouragement cards online

Once you’ve found a unique design that fits your sentiments, customize your card of encouragement with the online design tool. You can pick out new fonts and text colors for the personal message you’ll craft and accompany your card’s online delivery with a matching envelope liner or backdrop. After your design has been perfected, sending your card is as simple as finding your friend’s email address. If you’re a regular user, it’s likely saved in the online address book, but you can also import their contact info from your own webmail accounts. If you’re wishing a friend luck, don’t forget to follow up with a congratulations card and remind them you had their back all along.
