[AprilDawn]

I have registered  for this card workshop as  cardmaking is my main use for PSP.... look forward to seeing everyone's  creative projects.... best wishes to everyone

 

Dawn.

[Bonnie Ballentine]

I have registered.

[Suzy]

I’ve registered, but I’m not very good at it, never send them, and have severe troubles when it comes to print. The only cards I’ve figured out how to print are postcards….namely dues notices for the Daffodil Society, LOL!  I feel triumphant because my name and address are on the backside, and facing the right direction!  I also just did a postcard for daffodil show publicity for 2023, single sided.

 

Anything that folds is a headache for me, so I am looking forward to learning some tricks! I also have a double sided printer, so perhaps that will help me?!

 

Do any of you remember when cards were a single piece of paper folded into quarters, and not made from cardstock at all?

Sue #85380 I also used Publisher for years! For a family newsletter about everything our family did, a booklet for the fanclub of my favourite singer I was the chairman/woman? of for years, etc.

Then I switched to cardmaking with cardstock, with a machine, now an electric one (Couture creations Go power), at first a manual one. With PSP I was never satisfied about how it looked, very amateurish, not nice enough to send.

#85392 I used Data Becker too years ago, there was also Davilex who had nice programs to use.

 

I'm very happy I bought a Cricut machine, I use it for paper, vinyl, iron on etc. I really could use an aid for the housekeeping, addictive hobby's!

 

Looking forward to learn how to make cards with PSP. :)

[John Zippro]

Looking forward to the class...

[Susan Ewart]

Suzy, I certainly do remember making a 1/4 fold card.  That's what that card would be called if it was a newspaper.  I work at a web press and we do 1/2 fold and 1/4 fold newspapers for3 provinces.

[Nancy McNamara]

This workshop sounds great! I have always loved sending Christmas cards and still do, but I miss receiving them to include them in decorating my home.... Thankfully I have saved many of my favorite cards that I received & sent and now use them to decorate with!

[Michele]

Nancy, I used to use the front flap of a card to decorate my presents.

[Deana Davis]

I just registered.  I use to make rubber stamp cards, which I loved, but since our remodel and all my things are packed away I thought this might be a really good alternative for me.  I hope I make it to the end of the classes.  I displaced my hip so I'm not very mobile and not sure what the doctors will need to do to get me walking normal again.  But I'm excited for the class!

[Harmony Birch]

Looking forward to this, as a cardmaker it will be fun to try a few with psp instead of card and ink.

[Linda J Walker]

I used to make cards.....then things got in the way. I HAVE made our annual Christmas card for most of the past 40 years. Way back in the beginning, sometimes it was silkscreened, or hand-cut, or printed at a printshop.

 

But then we got a computer! And then a color printer! But some years it seems I spend more time fighting with the printer to print the 45 or so copies I need to mail, and I end up just being happy it is done :)

[Chris Schults]

Yes Me too

 

And Suzy 

 

I remeber well. Printing a card on 1 sheet and folding it in quarters :-)

On a dot matrix printer.

 

AND there are still people who do it that way

Hi Everyone,

 

I registered because I love the Talents I learn from here, Our Teacher who makes everything look easy

 

and you guys too       I learn something every time that helps me.

[Nana Ray]

Hi all,

 

I have always used  rubber stamps with special Ink & then hand painted them. Now with the computer up and the printer too I thought I just might give this a try this year.

[Lyn Lou]

Morning all, I'm here

Have a few things on today, and tomorrow, but the rest of he week should be ok for me.

[Jnet Allard]

Did the first email go out? Is this the first day, or am I confused?

 

I didn't get anything yet.

 

 

[Cassel]

Yes, Linda, it went out about 4 hours ago. Did you get the confirmation when it was sent? Can you check your spam?

[Hank Sobah]
