Personalize a City Limits Card for Any Occasion

Quick answer

Start by choosing a city or state that has meaning for the recipient, then write the exact name in your order notes. The card's outside says "Someone in [City] misses you" and the inside reads "It's me," so the personalization is in the location and your handwritten note.

How to personalize your City Limits card

1. Choose the location: Pick a city or state that connects to the recipient—where they live, grew up, or a place you share. Write the name exactly as you want it printed (e.g., “Portland, Oregon” not “PDX”). Common mistake: abbreviating or using a nickname that won’t make sense on the card. If you’re unsure, use the full city name. It reads better than a postal abbreviation.
2. Add the location in your order notes: At checkout, type the city or state name in the order notes field. The printer will set it exactly as you write it, including punctuation or capitalization. Common mistake: forgetting to add the note at all, which delays production. Review the note before submitting. One extra second prevents a reprint.
3. Write a complementary inside message: The card’s inside already says “It’s me.” That’s enough for a short, sweet note. For longer messages, add a handwritten line on the inside left panel—something like “Thinking of you” or “Wish you were here.” Common mistake: overwriting the printed message or leaving it blank when a personal touch would help. Keep the inside brief. The location does the heavy lifting.
