CREATING PRINTABLE PHOTO GREETING CARDS
STAY CONNECTED WITH FAMILY AND FRIENDS.
Making your own digital photo cards and personalized holiday
photo cards is a lot easier than you think. All you need is your
favorite photo or photos to get started. Soon you will have your
own customized set of digital photo cards to send off to your
family and friends for Valentine’s Day, Easter, birthdays and
more.
Printable greeting cards are a great way to keep in touch with
family and friends and show off your digital photos. Most online
digital photos services offer customized photo cards, allowing
you to create your own photo greeting cards for holidays, birth
or wedding announcements, birthdays, invitations, thank-you
notes, and more.
Creating Printable Photo Greeting Cards: Photo cards are simple
and fun to create. Online photo services such as Shutterfly and
Ofoto make it easy to design high-quality customized photo cards
using your own digital photos and personal message inside.
Typically, photo greeting cards are printed on 5×7 card stock
and you can choose from a matte or glossy finish. You just need
to upload your digital photo (or photos) to the photo service,
choose from a selection of layouts and greetings, and add your
personal message. Photo cards usually come in sets of 20 with
envelopes for mailing.
Shutterfly even let you import your addresses from Outlook or
your Palm device and they’ll send your photo greeting cards for
you. Now isn’t that a great way to take care of mailing your
photo cards!
Software for Photo Greeting Cards: You can also make your own
printable greeting cards using digital photo software. There are
several great programs with photo card templates for a variety
of occasions. They make it easy to design your own customized
Valentine Day and Easter photo cards or other holiday photo
cards. Our two favorite programs for making our own printable
greeting cards are FotoFinish and Adobe Photoshop Album. They
both have templates for a variety of photo greeting cards
including Valentine and Easter photo cards and other holiday
photo cards.
There are many fun ways to use your digital camera. Get creative
