Making a photo card in Photoshop is easy and fun! Follow these simple steps and you’ll be on your way to creating beautiful, personalized cards for any occasion.

1. Choose a photo.

Pick a photo that you think would make a great card. It could be a family photo, a picture of your pet, or even a landscape shot.

2. Open Photoshop and create a new document.

The dimensions of your document will depend on the size of the photo you’re using. For a standard 4×6 card, set the width to 6 inches and the height to 4 inches.

3. Add your photo to the document. Drag and drop the photo into the document, or use the “File > Place” menu option.

4. Resize and position the photo. Use the transform tools to resize and position the photo so it looks just right in the document.

5. Add text to the card.

Use Photoshop’s text tool to add a message or greeting to the card. Be sure to choose a font that is easy to read and coordinates well with the overall design of the card.

PRO TIP: This tutorial is for Adobe Photoshop CS3 and above. If you are using an older version of Photoshop, some of the steps may not be applicable.

6. Save and print the card. When you’re satisfied with how everything looks, save the document as a JPEG file and print it out on some nice cardstock paper.

Making your own photo cards in Photoshop is a great way to personalize cards for any occasion! By following these simple steps, you can easily create beautiful cards that are sure to impress friends and family alike.
