Help with creating a card background for Holiday cards...

Post by Cacoon6 »

Good Morning!

I need to start getting my holiday cards in order. (It usually takes me longer than planned, but the idea is to send them out by December 1st this year...lol)



My plan was to make a newspaper type background and then place a photo of my three boys on top. Alot of you were so helpful to help me find "vintage looking" newspaper backgrounds, but from what I saw I figured that I would like it to be my own wording. Something like "Extra Extra" something with our last name...(not 100% sure on the wording yet)

Does anyone have any suggestions? I know it is probably kind of a different background idea, but I could really use any help/advice.



Thanks so much!

I have a newspaper in my new digital kit that you can print over and over again :D It's a jpg file, so if you print pics from home you can print this ;)
I would do a 4x6 put the photo on it and lightly embellish.
