digital card making free
How do i make professional photo greeting cards to sell?
i want to make my own greeting cards but i am really confused as to what to do. my thoughts are below, but what is the correct procedure? feel free to give all your ideas, experience, referrals, links, etc.
I want to learn how to take pictures of flowers, nature, etc. but i don’t know what camera is the best. i assume some sort of digital camera should be used. i wonder if i should buy card stock/or paper used to make greeting cards to print on or should i take them/digital photos to the local print shop/Kinko’s/staples to print. what is the best type of printer/ink…laser? or should i just skip it and use the print shop. should I copy right my pictures? should i get some sort of bar code for the back of each card? i suppose i should make a business name.
I don’t want a big time organization to compete with the big guys. I just want a cost effective way to make extra money from home.
I suggest you have the shopping cart before the lens. . . .
Learn to take fabulous photos first. Exhibit them in shows, fairs, exhibitions and competitions. Get a name for yourself as a photographer. Sell a few photos now and then and find a gallery that will hang your photos.
Then you might . . . MIGHT. . . . make some money off of greeting cards. And at that time you hire a good printer to make them on the correct card stock, supplying the correct envelopes and then you distribute them to gift stores, restaurants and other places that sell custom cards.
But learn to do outstanding photography first. No one is buying mediocre art or photography, even at $4.50 a pop, these days.
