5 Tips for a Fabulous Holiday Greeting Card
Did you know that you can send out Easter cards? Because you sure can! It’s a great holiday that lends itself to pictures full of the beauty of spring, the hope and happiness that comes with the renewal of life, and outdoor photos!
But if you’ve never made your own greeting cards before, or never really liked the ones you made before, here are 5 helpful tips that will help you design a greeting card to be proud of!
Don’t Force Photos
First of all, the best pictures are ones that are natural, relaxed, and stress-free. Even if you are all smiling in the picture, bad moods will show through and ruin the true spirit of your family photo. It’s totally ok to use a photo you took months ago that you just happen to love. Or, if you are up for a photo shoot, take advantage of the great spring beauty to take bright, color-filled pictures.
As you take pictures, encourage play. Just have your photographer snap a lot of candids, help you create fun and unique poses or scenes, and focus on capturing the moment.
Mixing up Your Look
A great way to come up with truly great photos is to mismatch your outfits with the scene. For instance, suits on a beach, or sports outfits in a classy lounge. Do whatever you feel like captures the personality and style of your family.
Matching the Photo and Card
Another key point is to make sure that the style of your photo goes well with the design you choose for your card. For instance, if you have a bright, busy photo, make sure you pick a design that is simple and plain so that it won’t distract from the photo.
Especially when you are doing Easter cards, you’ll want to make sure that your colors pop. Keep the mood light and bright. Avoid choosing dark colors for your card.
If you have trouble figuring out what design will go well with your chosen photo, ask a professional at any of the printing services in Phoenix. They are experts at this and will be able to help you out.
Choose a Saying that Matches
Rather than settling for something boring and generic like “Happy Easter,” try coming up with something more interesting and unique. And if you match it to the photo all the better. Look to favorite songs, movie quotes, or family sayings for unique and interesting ideas saying to put on your family’s cards.
Print it Professionally
Finally, once you have created your masterpiece, make sure you print it professionally. There’s nothing worse than putting lots of time and effort into taking the perfect picture, finding the right design, and selecting the greatest saying and merging them all together, then seeing all that hard work lose all its glory through a bad printing job.
So rather than trying to save money by printing at home, you can pay just a fraction more and get quality paper, quality printing, quality cutting, and even quality envelopes to finish off the package at a printing services company in Phoenix.
