My first digitally created greeting card

Many of the gals in the digital groups make their own cards as well as their larger projects and I wanted to give it a try.  I did run into some road blocks as I only have a color ink jet printer which is very tempermental.  It doesn't like heavy cardstock and it has a tendency to leave horizontal dark streaks.  Thus should I continue down this path, I will either need to take my file out for printing or download it to a company that specializes in printing at high resolution.

At least I had fun trying and will mail this one out to a friend.

I used a brush by Pinkonhead at Deviantart called Alfons Mucha.  The background I created.

  1. The card is wonderful! I say go buy a new printer. My dream is to have one that will print 11 x 14
