A great way to present your photos and share them with friends and family is to create photo projects. Picture It! offers a range of designs that you can use to showcase your photos. Choose from greeting cards, calendars, business cards, and more.

Creating Photo Cards

Use your own photo to personalize a greeting card for a holiday, a party invitation, or any other occasion.

To open a photo card design:

1Open a photo so that it is in the Tray.

2On the File menu, click Create a Project.

3On the Pick a Design page, click Cards.

4Click Photo Cards.

5Click a theme, click a design, and then click Open.

6Drag your photo from the Tray to the card, and then click Next.

7If you want, move, resize, or flip the photo.

8Click Done.

9To edit the inside pages, make sure the Common Tasks list is expanded, and then click the page icons at the bottom of the Common Tasks list.

After your card project is open, you can add your own text, photos, and clip art. Because most printers cannot print to the edge of the page, the purple margins on the edges of a card project represent the unprintable areas of the card.

Photo cards are either half-fold cards, which are larger cards printed on both sides of the paper, or quarter-fold cards, which are smaller cards printed on only one side of the paper.

A favorite golfing photo was used to create this half-fold card.
