Handmade Christmas Cards

[MrsForgetMeNotFul]

have just plucked up the courage to put my cards i have been making on the gallery....trouble is the photoes don't show the layers of my decoupage...many of my cards are 3dimentional...and they look so flat...i suppose i could email photoes showing the 'side view' to show the layers etc...but fely it a waste of space to show 2 pictures of the same card....
also...similarly...some are 'multi-paged' cards...and again..difficult to show that in 1 picture.....

JM...what would YOU do to show the cards better...should i take a picture at a 'jaunty angle' showing mainly the front...but a hint of the insides/layers too????

jst read this again...and apologies for the awful spelling!


My card verses are spelt correctly ...honest!!!! !!!

I wouldnt worry about it too much Mrs F. When anyone places an order for one of your cards then you can explain to them that the cards are 3d. If you make a short note informing that the card is 3d in the edit section of the card Im sure that will be fine.

[MrsForgetMeNotFul]

thanks....will do that!

I would still try a few taking pictures at a slight angle, some people find it very hard to imagine things like this or won't realise what you are talking about in your descriptions.

Ive just uploaded some new cards to the Christmas Card Gallery.
I put the gallery on slide show and thought the cards look really good all together, so I called
DH to come and have a peep and he said "WOW.....thats not just cutting and sticking"

Well done to you all....they really are FAB.
