Don't Send Another Expensive Hallmark Greeting Cards

I do it all the time. I have a case of stamping stuff....you now the stuff you can make greeting cards out of. You'd think by now I would've mastered how to make my own greeting cards. Well, I haven't. Every time I try to make one, I think it is not creative enough, and I end up not sending it. I've even tried printing off cards on my computer. I'm guessing my printer isn't professional enough for that either. Off to the store to get a generic Hallmark card. I bought three yesterday at $2.99 each? When did they get so expensive? Were they always so pricey? Thanks to one of the blogs I regularly read, I've found another solution that may fit the bill for me. Maybe it's something up your alley as well.

Please take the time to pop over to Jaden's Steamy Kitchen. She is a food blogger with some hilarious posts and recipes, but more importantly, she has a knack for photographing her food creations, also known as food porn. This is how she got involved with Send Out Cards. You can upload photos to templates or make your own. Add your own text in whatever font and even scan and add your own honest to goodness signature. The best part, is that they will mail your card for you. See the video on how it's done here. I discussed once before how important thank-you cards are. This is the perfect solution, and all at a cost LESS than running to the store and picking up some run-of-the-mill greeting card. Try it and let me know how it works out! BTW, if you make your own greeting cards and would like to show us how it's done, we'd love to see some photos! It would be great if you could post some of your creations for the rest of us artistically challenged folks.
