RIP Memorial Cards – A Lasting Tribute To Your Loved One

Sizes & Dimensions

Memorial Card Sizes

Knowing the actual dimensions helps when you are picturing how a card will look in the hand, in a missal or in a wallet. Here is exactly what we print, in millimetres.

At a glance

What size is each keepsake?

All four are printed full colour on both sides, on 350gsm board, and laminated for lasting use.

Folding memorial cards

105mm x 148mm folded (A6)

This is the traditional funeral card — it opens like a small greeting card, with the photograph and dates on the front and room inside for a full verse or prayer. It is the size most Irish families think of when they picture a memorial card.

Memorial bookmarks

55mm x 175mm

A tall, narrow strip that sits neatly inside a missal, prayer book or novel. Because it is single-sided in shape but printed both sides, there is enough room for a photograph, name, dates and a short verse without feeling cramped.

Wallet cards

85mm x 55mm, the same as a credit card

Small enough to carry every day. Families often order a handful of these for people who want to keep a photograph close, in a wallet or purse, rather than a full card.

Acknowledgement (thank you) cards

105mm x 148mm (A6)

The same folded size as the memorial card, so it can be designed to match. Used after the funeral to thank people who called, sent flowers or Mass cards, or helped the family in the days around the death.

Which size should we order?

Most families start with folding memorial cards, printed for the funeral or the Month's Mind, and then decide whether bookmarks or wallet cards are worth adding for close family. There is no wrong choice — it depends on how the card is likely to be kept. A bookmark suits someone who reads a missal every week; a wallet card suits someone who wants a photograph to hand.

Questions about sizes

What size is a standard Irish memorial card?
The traditional folding memorial card measures 105mm x 148mm folded, which is A6 — roughly the size of a small greeting card. It opens to show a verse or prayer alongside the photograph and dates on the front.
What size is a memorial bookmark?
Our memorial bookmarks are 55mm x 175mm, a slim shape designed to sit inside a missal or prayer book without sticking out awkwardly.
Are wallet cards really wallet sized?
Yes — at 85mm x 55mm they are the same size as a credit card or driving licence, so they fit into any wallet or purse card slot.
Can I mix sizes in the one order?
Yes. Many families order folding cards for most people and a smaller run of wallet cards or bookmarks for close family. We can carry the same photograph and wording across every size.
Does a bigger card cost much more?
Not hugely — the folding card and wallet card are priced similarly, with bookmarks usually a little dearer because of the different cutting. See our full price list for exact figures at each quantity.
