How to Find a Program to Make Cards

Homemade greeting cards are more personal than store-bought cards, but not everyone has the time to put into hand-making, embellishing and designing the cards. If you want the custom options of homemade cards, without purchasing all of the materials and spending a lot of time, you may want to use a computer software program. There are many types of greeting card software available, and you should research to find the ones that are right for your needs.

Instructions

    • 1

      Look for greeting card software that fits your photo needs. Check for options like the ability to add photo files onto your cards, or change the image's size once you have added it.

    • 2

      Decide if you want to be able to email the cards as email greetings. If so, there are programs that have that option, so choose one of those.

    • 3

      Look into the text effect options for the software. Decide whether you want to be able to style your text artistically, such as curving it or bending it around images on the card.

    • 4

      Choose a program with templates that you like, so that you can quickly make cards at a moment's notice without having to design the entire layout.

    • 5

      Check the packaging carefully, and ensure that your computer meets the minimum specifications for memory, processing and operating system. Take a list of your computer's specs with you to the store before buying a product, as software is difficult (sometimes impossible) to return.
