Before you start (2 minutes)
Have these handy so your card comes together smoothly:
- Recipient name (and email if you’ll send directly from the card)
- Card title (e.g., We’ll Miss You, Priya!)
- Target send date/time (if you’ll schedule)
- Contributors (coworkers, classmates, friends) and where you’ll share the invite link (email/Slack/Teams/WhatsApp)
- Optional media: 1–3 photos, a few GIFs, and a favorite inside joke or two
Step-by-Step: Make a Group Farewell Ecard
Step 1 — Start on the Homepage
From the LovingEcards homepage (Screenshot A), click Group Card Categories to open the full list of occasions. This is the fastest path to the Farewell section without hunting.
Why it matters: Starting here ensures your card inherits the right occasion tag and surfaces farewell-specific templates later.
Step 2 — Open “Farewell Cards”
On the Categories grid (Screenshot B), select Farewell Cards. You’ll land on the Farewell category page (Screenshot C) showing a wide mix of designs—from Minimalist and Office Humor to Cute, Funny, and Animal-Themed.
Pro tip: If you’re unsure of tone, choose Staff Picks first; these are versatile, office-safe starters.
Step 3 — Filter by Design Theme and pick your cover
Use the Design Theme filter (left panel on the Farewell page) to narrow options by vibe:
- Minimalist: clean, modern, subtle color
- Cute: warmth and charm (great for close teams)
- Funny: lighthearted send-offs; keep it office-safe
- Animal-Themed: playful and universally friendly
- Office Humor: inside-baseball jokes that land in work contexts
Click the card you like to open the Create Card screen.
Step 4 — Create Card: fill details, schedule, and add special touches
On Create Card (Screenshot D), fill out the simple form:
1) Who’s Receiving the Card?
- Recipient Name (required)
- Recipient Email (if you plan to send it directly from the card)
About the Card & You
- Card Title (what signers and recipient will see)
- Sender Name (e.g., “Marketing Team” or “Class of 2025”)
2) Schedule Delivery (optional)
- Check “Schedule this card for a later date” and select the send date/time.
Benefit: Your card will auto-deliver on time—even if you’re busy on the day.
3) Add a Special Touch (optional)
- Add confetti to this card for a celebratory pop
- Add Music to this card for a warm, cinematic reveal
You can also Upload a different cover if you have a branded or team photo you’d like to feature. When you’re set, click Create Card.
Step 5 — Invite people to sign (Share link)
Your new card opens in preview (Screenshot E) with controls at the top: Sign card, Share, Edit, and Send Now. Click Share to get the invite link. Paste that link into email, Slack, Teams, or WhatsApp—whatever your group uses.
Best practices for invites
- Add a deadline in your invite message (e.g., “Please sign by Thursday 4 p.m.”)
- Pin the link at the top of your chat channel so latecomers can find it
- For big teams, re-post the link once or twice as the deadline approaches
Step 6 — Add messages, photos, and GIFs
Encourage signers to:
- Write a personal note (1–3 lines is perfect)
- Include one specific memory (“Your calm during the Q2 incident saved us.”)
- Add a GIF or photo to create a lively, scroll-worthy card
- Use emojis or a quick reaction to second others’ messages
As signatures come in, you can switch between Slide Show and Board View (controls beneath the card) to review the layout.
Step 7 — Send Now or Let the Schedule Deliver Automatically
When everyone’s signed:
- Click Send Now to deliver immediately, or
- If you set a schedule in Step 4, do nothing—the card will auto-deliver at your chosen time
Presentation tip: If you’re celebrating on a live call, open Slide Show and screen-share the card as you read a few messages out loud.
