    Well, last week I was so busy and worried that I hadn't planned their first birthday party, which is only 3 weeks away! With this being a busy time for me (I create custom cards), I thought I had better get on the ball with my own babies' invitations! I got some really cute pictures of them this past weekend so I decided to use them on the card.... Thanks for looking!

    Those are adorable!!

    Love the pics across the bottom too, what a neat idea!

    (And I'm a dork...I wasn't paying enough attention and almost mentioned to you that you might want to take your address and phone # off....and then I looked again! :fool: )

    Yes, I used PhotoShop - I am fortunate enough to have had it installed by my previous employer because I used it in my job, otherwise I couldn't have afforded it! PhotoShop Elements is just as good for this kind of stuff and is a lot less expensive!

    It came out super cute! I love the row of pictures on the bottom. The pictures of the babies look awesome. Looks like you are a professional photographer. I need to get going and make some for my dd, I am only know enough about photoshop to do basics.

    Thanks! Actually a friend of mine took the pictures, and I did the photoshopping (is that a word? it is now!) LOL I would love to learn photography, maybe someday!

    I create them in a high resolution (300dpi) and that is the best for printing, they print great! (you'll notice on Shutterfly, etc, they recommend 300dpi for best quality prints)
