Making your own digital/printable PL cards? Jul 8, 2014 22:30:43 GMT via Tapatalk

I'm wondering if anyone makes their own PL cards - either digital, or digital and then printing them out? Or knows of any blogs/classes that teach how to make them?

I have a couple of design/sketch/drawing apps (Sketchbook, Brushes, etc), and I use my Silhouette software too... I can draw what I want, I'm just trying to figure out the best/easiest way to get what I draw onto cards... Hoping to learn if people create templates, how they create/save/organize, that sort of stuff...

TIA

I have made some using My Digital Scraproom software. It has a collage feature that makes it easy and automatically the right size to print two cards on a 4x6 print. You can design your own using digital elements and papers or you can import predesigned ones from digi scrapping places and just drop them into the template for printing. It's pretty cool. The owner/developer Blayne has a lot of videos on YouTube that show how it works.

I make some using Photoshop Elements and some free and purchased templates. If you have Photoshop or PSE check out Anika's blog. She has some free card templates and has also written some scripts to automate the preparation of the cards:
