How To: Create a (print from home) Thank You Card

It’s Monday again! On Friday I posted a link on the ScrapHD Facebook page to a thank you card I had created and planned to print from home and send out. I did do just that and thought I would share the process with all of you. It was so simple to do, and I’m sure my boyfriend’s mom will love it when she gets it

First, I signed into ScrapHD and chose to start with a theme. I LOVE the themes because they are fully customizable. You can make a layout by simply adding your pictures, or you can completely modify it to make it your own. That’s what I did here!

I took this theme…

…and turned it into this….

I created a quick video to show you how I modified the Puppy Love Theme to turn it into my own Thank You Card..

STEP 1: Sign into ScrapHD
STEP 2: Create a Scrapbook/Start with a Theme
STEP 3: Choose Puppy Love
STEP 4: Make your changes to the theme
STEP 5: Print from home – available to Club Members!

PRINT FROM HOME:
I received my print from home file that was emailed to me from ScrapHD and I downloaded it to my computer. I then opened the file and chose to print. The printer we use here is the Epson R1900, which is AWESOME! You can even print 12×12’s on it! For this card I was printing 5×7. The photo paper I used was 8.5 x 11 so I loaded that into my printer.

I then edited my printer settings: I chose 5×7/Borderless and printed my card

Since I printed my 5×7 on 8.5×11 paper I had to cut it down to the right size for my thank you card

I cut the edge off first and then I took an inch off of the top

I then used my Score-It board to make the crease for my card

That’s it!!Let me know if you have ANY questions about printing from home or using themes – or really anything else for that matter! I know that I’ll be using this to do all of my thank you cards, and even invitations! If you do anything using the builder/print from home I’d love to see it!
