One of my photography class instructors said he tried everyone and like them best. Also, he said each photo is put through a PhotoShop software of some sort to produce the best photos for consumers.<br />Guess I should think about using some of my photos for my cards, I attend Stampin' Up workshops and have been making my own cards for a couple of years now. After looking at your previous post, photographs look very nice with a couple of different mat colours to coordinate.<br />JudithJudith @ Lavender Cottagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16361061491506137380noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7030532780217946336.post-60703711107111489602013-05-25T19:03:51.249-04:002013-05-25T19:03:51.249-04:00More inspiration from the Donna!!

A favorite card I received several years ago from my cousin was an old photo of her and I in her backyard swings - all dressed up in our mothers' and grandmother's clothes! It was such a treasure that I keep it out in my office so I can see it often. <br />~Adrienne~Adriennehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09401476871614514660noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7030532780217946336.post-3962340953593056792013-05-25T16:29:15.711-04:002013-05-25T16:29:15.711-04:00These turned out beautifully!

You have inspired me with the idea of making my own greeting cards...coming right on the heels of spending a ton of money for Mother's Day cards for my mother, mother-in-law, daughter, and daughter-in-law. (Hallmark loves me!) I have made some fun scrapbook style cards in the past, and although I love them, I don't always have time to be so creative. Making cards with photographs seems like the best of both worlds...<br /><br />Of course, it helps if you have stunning photos (as you do)!Cheryl https://www.blogger.com/profile/00063844335185525553noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7030532780217946336.post-56510361702588715582013-05-24T23:58:44.147-04:002013-05-24T23:58:44.147-04:00Gorgeous, Donna.

They sell the packs of pre scored for folding card stock and envelopes. Not as fancy but cost wise about $1.50 a card. I used to work at Hallmark and loved their cards and bought them for years. Here in Canada, Hallmark owns the card brand sold at the Dollarama here so they are still making money. :-) Pamela Gordonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18071092617682650349noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7030532780217946336.post-74826540136309685032013-05-24T16:00:21.466-04:002013-05-24T16:00:21.466-04:00i love that top scene. they all look nice!i love that top scene. they all look nice!TexWisGirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13641962051044162710noreply@blogger.com
