Custom Personalized Greeting Cards, Party Invites and Notes for Every Occasion
You can find printable greeting cards and note cards online at low and even no cost (yes, free printable greeting cards do exist). There are many lovely printable greeting card designs on the Internet that you can print out for holidays, special occasions or every day notes.
Many printable greeting cards are free for personal use, while others cost far less than a card you might buy at the stationery shop.
You can also find cool greeting card templates and one-of-a-kind greeting cards at online shops that let you upload your own photo or picture, add your own greeting text, then order a print of one, two or a dozen of your custom cards complete with free personalization. My favorite design-your-own card shop is Zazzle.

If you're crafty, you can design and make your own cards using word processing programs or hobby software plus scrapbook papers, card stock and embellishments.
All sorts of print and use greeting card styles are available: photographs, humor, cartoons, cards to print and fold, cards for coloring and paper piecing cards - the choices are many and all they cost you are a bit of craft time, plus the price of some nice paper or card stock and ink for your home printer.
You can design and craft your own cards using free templates, craft papers and card stock, photos, clip art and decorations straight from the sewing box, office supply cabinet or scrapbook bin.

Easy Photo Art Cards
Photographs make wonderful cards. Many printable cards contain fantastic pictures with clever verse or titles. If you find a free photo that would make a perfect card you can design your own greeting card and either print it at home or upload it to a service to print 1 or a dozen photo cards that are your own design. You do need to be sure the photo is available for commercial printing if you upload a picture to make a card.
If you just want to make one for yourself, it's easy to design your own printable card. Use pre-folded note cards for the base, or print on any color card stock that you've cut down to the size you want. Print the photo directly onto a blank card front, or print it separately and glue it to the card front. Add borders, ribbon, or any other decorative findings you have on hand to make your free and easy card truly one-of-a-kind.
