Choosing Some Meaningful Masonic Greeting Cards

By Alta Alexander


Special occasion deserves some good words. May it be for congratulations or for gratitude, saying it directly to the person who is the subject of the event is important. If you are someone who is attending a gathering conducted for another person, then thinking of some greetings that you can give is vital.

Aside from the verbal manner, you can send your greetings by writing them down. In fact, this is preferred by many knowing that they can express what they want to say better when they write it down. Masonic greeting cards are among those uniquely designed items that you can give to the person who is the subject for an important event.

There are many custom ones available in the market so looking for some great designs should not be that difficult. You can browse through online options to see what will fit your message best. When giving this to someone who is a mason, be sure to look into the following.

Official symbol of the masons. What sets this type of card from the rest is the official symbol of masonry that it has. The compass and the ruler is a very important symbolism to the members and if you want to highlight the respect or recognition to the group, then you should make sure that the item has this on board.

Text. This refers to the font style and at the same time the content of the message. There is no rule as to how you would like to say what you mean. You can write whatever you mean. There are cards however that already have a custom phrase or sentence included in the piece, one that serves as the motto of the group. If its written in foreign language, ask what it means and its significance to the masons.

Size. There are different sizes that are available for you to choose. You can have the one that will fit your needs best. If you want a longer message, then you can always go for those with bigger sizes. The smaller ones are favorite picks to accompany gifts and packages.

Related symbols. These may or may not be directly related to masonry. There are masons who are also active to other organizations like the academic field or charity works. You can include the logos of their other affiliation on the card. Some of those that are sold out online already have logos in them. Symbols of popular organizations are likely to be included in some items.

Type of paper. There are different types of paper that can be categorized according to their thickness and finish. Some of them are glossy while others are not. When you choose one, consider its compatibility in terms of the ink that you will be using when writing something. There are kinds which do not take commercial ink well.

You can always make some greeting cards by yourself. But if you want to find a good one faster, then selecting from the custom designs available online is a good way to start. Think of the design that you want and see if any of the available ones are there.
