Making Awesome Photo Cards!

I know a lot of people like to make photo cards for the holidays, and usually you are stuck with the same old templates from the same old places as everyone else. You are limited in your size, your color choice, your number of pictures. Well, I’m here to tell you that My Digital Studio changes all that. Suddenly the world is your canvas! You can choose your card size and orientation, you can choose from predesigned layouts, or customize your own. And you can print on both inside pages of the card for NO EXTRA CHARGE. Crazy, but true! The card I am sharing with you today is not a holiday card. It is just a fun card that I made for my daughter to send to my parents. I chose a 5″x7″ portrait style card, and had it printed up through Stampin’ Up’s printing service. The cover looks like this:
Because I could add any text in any font that I wanted, I decided to type in Hebrew. It says “Savta & Sabba” which is what Eve calls my parents — Grandma and Grandpa in Hebrew. The ribbon, which looks so real, is digital — no worries about paying extra for a lumpy card. I decided to add more pictures on the inside, and a little more decoration. I could have typed a note, but I wanted Eve to write something in her own handwriting.
See how the swirl from Baroque Motifs is in each of the top corners? I was able to flip one, so they were the mirror image. (That’s one of my mom’s favorite images by the way.) This is so much more than a card — it’s practically a mini scrapbook! I am so happy with the way it came out, and I know my parents are going to be thrilled when they get it! Now, back to My Digital Studio — I need to get cracking on the calendars I’m making for holiday gifts! Let me know if you have questions about this or any of the other My Digital Studio projects.

Awesome card Yapha and a great reminder to use all the available pages before printing a card. Just like a mini album. I bet the Grandfolks were wowwed!
