Want to send a truly original interactive Christmas Card this year? Well, what about a Photo Cube Christmas Card? If you’re Grandma is anything like mine, she loves these cards. You can still include your season greeting, but Grandma or your recipient can cut out and make a beautiful Photo Cube. The card even includes the instructions for making the cube.

These instructions are for Funtastic Photos (download a free unlimited trial), however they may still work in other product.

In this tutorial I’m going to show you how you can create a beautiful memorable Christmas card. I can pretty much guarantee that your card will be different from everyone else’s. So I’m going to walk you through enhancing the photo, framing it, adding a caption and then finally printing it. I would recommend getting some heavier paper with either a photo gloss or photo matte finish, it’s up to which you choose. Also you should check out your local stationary store, many carry blank greeting card and envelope packs, just right for you to print your cards onto. You can also get a sample pack from our favorite paper suppliers, Red River Paper for only $12.49 shipped [Click Here to See or purchase Red River Paper's Greeting Card Sample Pack].

This tutorial has been designed for Funtastic Photos [Click here to download a free unlimited trial version], however you may be able to use a different program to apply these effects. If you’d rather, you can download the 1-Click Style, however I think you should still read step 6 onwards.

We at Ohanaware would like to wish everyone a very happy Christmas and we hope that 2009 is the year where your dreams come true.
