London, England -- (SBWIRE) -- 04/05/2012 -- When you send greeting cards to people, you’re trying to show them that you’re thinking of them, and that they mean a lot to you. The simple act of choosing a card will go some way towards doing this, but making just the right choice will really underline the point you’re making, and creating your own photo cards can take all of the stress out of this process.

Easter is one of those times of the year when everyone likes to make the effort to find, write and send greeting cards to friends and family. Whether you believe strongly in the religious aspects of the festival, or merely wish to celebrate it as a time of family togetherness and the start of warmer weather and longer days, sending Easter greetings is a way of bringing people closer and showing that they’re in your thoughts. In this age of electronic communication, when texting, messaging and tweeting people is incredibly quick and simple, old fashioned forms of communication can often carry a much stronger emotional impact.

When you’re sending an Easter cards greeting, the difficulty can often lie in finding a card which is perfect for your requirements. All too often, the cards available tend to fall back on tired and tedious clichés, utilising the same old images, such as bunny rabbits, chicks and, of course, decorated eggs. Even if you’re buying Easter cards for kids, however, you’ll probably want to find something which is a little bit more original and will have a chance of standing out from the crowd and being genuinely personal in terms of the imagery as well as the message.

The best way of ensuring that this is the case is to create photo cards using images from your own collection of photographs, and, whilst this would once have meant sticking photographs onto cardboard and producing something which was frankly more than a little amateurish, it is now possible to combine the personal with the professional and come up with photo cards which only you could have produced, yet which are of a standard which you’d usually expect to see for sale in high street shops.

Actually designing and making these cards has been made incredibly simple. The technology now employed means that the only thing you have to do is choose the image which you feel gets the message across the best and then upload it to the relevant website. Once you’ve done this, you’ll find yourself using software which makes it quick and simple to modify every aspect of your finished card, from the size and shape of the card to the presence of any text on the front or inside intended to reinforce the Eater greetings you’re sending. Once you’ve tweaked and modified the card to ensure that it looks exactly as you’d like it to it will be printed as many times as you like. From a one off card to a pack of twenty to share out amongst family of friends, the results will be the same; a card printed on top quality material using the latest technology, meaning that every detail of the image you’ve chosen will be captured in all its’ splendour.
