The holidays are all about spreading joy, and what better way than with a custom photo card? Personalizing your own Christmas cards is easier than ever, and it adds a unique touch that store-bought cards just can’t match!
Why Customize?
Personalized cards let you showcase your favorite photos, pick your own colors, and add a message that speaks from the heart. It’s a fun way to make your holiday greetings truly one-of-a-kind.
Easy Steps to Create:
- I've selected this modern family photo festive design template from my Etsy store. It's in size 7x5" card, which is a popular size choice for greetings cards.
- Try Before You Buy: There's a demo link so you can try out your own pictures and words to see how they work within the design and preview your card before purchasing.
- Edit Text & Colors: This particular design is editable in the online tool Corjl, where you make your edits and can also tweak the text, fonts, and colors. “Merry Christmas” in this particular template is in a stylish, non-editable script - one of my favorites - but you can still adjust its color and size.
- Add Photos: Upload your personal photos in place of the samples. You can even add more pictures or create an extra page for the reverse of your card and add a special message if you so wish!
- Print Options: Once happy with your design, either print it at home or use a professional service. Be sure to download your card as a PDF or JPG, and for pro printing, include bleed and crop marks. Printable templates let you print multiple cards per page, in this case 2 per A4 or US letter size sheet saving both time and resources. You can select this when you download in Corjl - choose the pdf option and select the multiple per page and show crop marks and bleed to simplify cutting them out.
- Electronic version included: As a bonus, I've included a phone size (1080 x 1920 pixels, the perfect size for most smartphones) for sharing via email, messaging or social media—an eco-friendly alternative! A great way to save time and paper!
Happy customizing, and enjoy spreading the holiday cheer with your own personalized Christmas cards!
