Ok experts--here is a question for you!
How do I make holiday cards? A friend likes my photography and asked me to make her some cards.
Thank you! |

Hello
I use PrintMaster Deluxe greeting card.
I have it installed in my program for card making & so much more.
Hallmark is very nice too.
I have whole library of all my bootiful cards & handmade stationary to fit all my friends & famlies individual needs for all occasions.
It helps to be very creative in card making. If I can't find what I'm looking for I go to my home page to Images to download an Image to save to my computer to use that image to put in a greeting card.
Bing is a very good site for Images, just be careful what you open for thoses Images. I usually check with my Norton Security to see that green check mark for safe assurance.
Good luck Joane in choosing a Card program to suit your needs. some times you can get a rebate for the purchase price & get your money back.
When you get the program software, you simply insert the disc. in your pc & follow the steps to register your product. Their usually always a help & tutorial to guide you through.
You can make ready - made or create a new card or letter or any project you would like to make. Just last week I made a recipe card for a dear friend of mine for her Lithuanian Potato Latkes for her Christmas & birthday gift. Oh, did she love that!
Let me know if you need any help, I will do what I can. It's fun once you know how to use the Program a great relaxing project to work on & make a someone very happie!
Remember I made that bootiful get well card for
Hershey, the Persian cat that was stabbed, he was on the news. in Virginia Beach. God, I hope he's doing much betta!
Love Liz  |

Joane, I can't add much here. I have an old version of Hallmark Greetings cards which I downloaded a few years and it isn't much to brag about.
It seems like Liz has a fantastic program which I am going to check out. Thank you Liz for sharing it with us. |

Thank you ladies,
Actually my program is a bit old, butt I can be very creative working those online Images into my Save As computer USB removable flash drive stick.
Everybody loves my handmade work, it gives me so much pleasure to see their faces light up.
Last week & took a blank poster & made it into a very bootiful Golf setting stationary with a matching golf envelope for his birthday sent to in Florida.
Oh, he said Wow!
It does take a bit of time & a lot of practice, butt before long you'll have your very own photo shoppe.
Good luck ladies.
Let me know if you need any help I'll do my best.  |
