Christmas Card Ideas-help please

[Jeanne511]

Hi

I am new to the forum, and am teaching a class called "projects" where my students (mostly senior citizens) make different projects using PSE.

I wanted some neat ideas for Christmas Cards for them!

Anyone have any fun ideas--tutorials would help since I am also a newbe at this.

Thanks Jeanne

Jeanne ...

Have you any idea what type of cards you want to make ... do you want them printed out, electronic etc ..

I posted three I made last year in my Gallery so they may give you some ideas :)

Thanks Wendy,

I did see you cards, and they are beautiful. I guess I need a little help in how you made them. Also, I was thinking of a folding card, with family pictures, that my students could print in class.

Hi Jeanne ...

There is a thread about Christmas Cards here:

You may pick some ideas up from it :)

Hi Jeanne,

I am using papers and elements from the "free" Christmas kits available on the scrapbook sites to create Christmas card backgrounds. Just add my photos as appropriate.

Try www.digitalscrapbookplace.com and www.threescrapateers.com. Some good freebies there and inspiration.

Here is a tutorial link I just found on creating Christmas cards:

I find this site is a really good site for ideas. They have a lot of "sketch" layouts for scrapbook pages to give you lots of new ideas.
