How To Make Easy Christmas Cards

I want a card with his picture and I want to be able to add a Santa Claus hat image to the picture. It would be so easy if he would just leave the mini Santa hat on that I have for him but sadly he will not cooperate... as is usual for a cat. Anyway, I need directions on how to do this. I would like it to be an actual folded card so I can write on the inside or possibly print a message on the inside.

Since you don't say where you are it is difficult to give you a less generic store. So I know that Walmart is everywhere and they do photo christmas cards. Look online to see if they can add a hat to your cat. If not you could use a clip-art on your computer and add it first then upload the edited photo to order the cards.

How can I make my own Christmas cards that look good and professional? I would like to send a Christmas card to a friend in Italy, and it is not easy to find Italian language cards here. What are some good ideas to help me make my own? I know I should use card stock paper. I do have the program "Greetings Workshop" on my computer, but the cards never really come out looking professional.

Any ideas?

Well it can be really hard to get them to look right when they were made on the computer. Some tips for making cards in general (by hand or on the computer). Make sure the colours look good together. You don't want, say, black and brown. Be careful when using bright or dark colours with pastels, they don't always look good together. When in doubt, get a second opinion. Don't try to "overload" the card. Meaning don't put too much stuff on it. If you look at the cards at a store you'll see one or two things on them. Not Santa, four snowmen, two reindeer, and the sleigh. Which brings us to, look at professional cards to get a better idea of what you want. Study colour, the style of the drawing (cartooney, realistic?), the font of the words, everything. But don't try to copy one of the cards, just get an idea of what you like and what you don't. And the last, most important tip: HAVE FUN! If you hated making something, it shows.


Personally, I think one made by hand would be nicer. All you will need can be bought at a craft store: blank card and envelope, a calligraphy pen a book on calligraphy if you don't know how (you may prefer to pick one up from the library), stamps and ink, or some artist talent and pens, pencils, and whatever you use for colours. Take everything home and on a piece of scrap paper test some designs. When you find one you like, put it on the card. Practice your calligraphy until you can do it just the way you like, and write your message.

But, if you're doing it on the computer: Yes, use cardstock and make sure you have enough ink in the printer. You might try looking for clipart on a sight like photobucket.


This is kind of long, but I hope it helped! Merry Christmas!
