Customized greeting cards based on your own photographs make an excellent strategy to show friends and family how much you care - a truly attractive card may spend months on a loved one's mantelpiece and might even be framed and displayed with pride.
You may include a number of images on each page of a greeting card and either print it on your home printer, order prints using the net, or save it to your hard drive, and then send it via email. Once you've begun your greeting card, the Create tab offers controls for moving between pages, and easy access to layout templates, art work, and effects to help you to create superior designs easily and quickly. Choosing a size and theme
For this project you'll use two photographs to create a folded invitation card.
1. In the Organizer, click on Show All in the Find bar over the Media Browser. In the Keyword Tags panel, expand the Imported Keyword Tags category, and click the find box beside the Lesson 04 tag to isolate the photographs for this Elements 10 lesson.
2. In media Browser, select the images card_1.jpg and card_2.jpg.
3. Click on the Create tab above the Task Pane. On the Create tab, click the Greeting Card button. The Greeting Card window opens.
If you do not see file names shown below the thumbnail images in the Media Browser, ensure that the Details check box in the bar above the browser pane is activated and select View - Show File Names.
4. In the left, the Sizes pane lists size options for various web based services; choose the third listing under Shutter-fly: 7.00 x 5.00 inches (Folded, Landscape). From the Themes pane, select Colorful. You may use a theme "as is", or as a design template which you may customize. The preview shows that this theme will make a great starting-point for our design, with a front page layout occupied by a single photograph. Make sure that Auto fill With Chosen Images is activated; then, click OK.
Even though Sizes pane lists options compatible with different web-based services, any greeting card may also be printed from your own printer. The choice of online services depends upon your location and your operating system.
Adobe Photoshop Elements takes several moments to make the appropriate number of pages, place the chosen photographs in the template, and generate a preview. The card design appears in the Edit window and the Create tab presents the Pages panel, where you can click the thumbnails to navigate between the pages in your layout. A thumbnail for your as-yet-untitled photo project appears in the Project Bin.
