How to create greeting cards in elements 7

I need to know how to create greeting cards that would fit with this layout I attached this one below. I am new to this so learning how this works.
Thanks for your help

This site has a few greeting card tutorials
http://www.redrivercatalog.com/cardshop/tuts1/index.htm.
I have also used their greeting cards and envelopes and have always been satisfied with their products.
I don't know exactly what size your photo is but what I do is;
make a new document the size of the photo plus 1/4-inch all around for a border. Double this if the card is a half-fold card.
I add a new layer and use the pencil tool mark where to divide the card in half (where I will fold the card), and to mark the 1/4 inch border on the front. I use the grid (View>Grid). I make any more marks I might need. Just remember to keep it all on a new layer and turn it off before you print. Very annoying to print your card and see your markings!!
Since I want them to fit in an envelope, I use whatever size I need to fit and make the images fit the card.
I hope this has been of some help to you. I really enjoy making cards!

Can Anyone Tell Me How to Create Greeting Cards with Photoshop Elements 7 or 8?

I need a 7x10 page setup so that when the card is folded to a 5x7 my photo is landscape on the outside of the card. Currently I can only find a 8 1/2 x 11 paper size.
Thanks,

In Photoshop Elements 8 Editor, go to the Create tab, and you will see Greeting card, with 5x7 page size.

Printing greeting cards on elements 9

I cannot succssfully print a greeting card on elements 9. I have finally arrived at the conculsion that duplex printing is not possible. So I have been trying to print without the duplex feature enabled. The problem is when the page prints out the picture takes up the whole page - how do I shrink it to make it look like a greeting card?

Using one of the guides under, "Create?" I don't think those were done with duplex printing in mind (at least when doing home projects).
Could be a printer driver issue in regards to it printing too big. Can you preview before you print? Are the settings correct?

Creating greeting cards in PRE 10

I am using PRE 10 to create a greeting card. Tis the season. LOL .. Anyway, I select create, greeting card, themes. It appears as though all the themes come from Shutterfly. And any particular theme only gives you one template to choose from. None of which I want to use. I previously created cards in PRE 7 and had lots of choices for a theme. It was a lot easier and more fun. Are Shutterfly templates the default for PRE 10? Is there a way to load other templates into PRE 10?
Hope this makes sense. Thanks for your help!

Thank you!!

Hello my create greeting cards elements_10 wont open. A box pops up and says " valid size not available " all other create applications open. Tech help hung up on me because i wasn't able to follow instructions quick enough. Can anyone please help thanks.
Question ?

My problem is fixed with the help of a friend. I had myself and administrator as users so closed administrator, changed my location which was on Brazil to united states, ( i'm in Australia.) Added "old" to the end of the database .db3 file (that was the support networks suggestion). Then uninstalled and re-installed and everthing is working fine. Such a relief it took me 3 weeks to get it all up and running.

PSE6 shuts down creating greeting cards

If I open an image in Editor then go > Create, > greeting card, > select a layout I get error report and it shuts down.
It worked perfectly yesterday so I can't figure it out!
Chris

Hi,
Is this happening every time you create a greeting card? Try selecting a different layout before creating the greeting card.

How do I find folded greeting cards in Elements 10?

I'm using elements 10 but don't see any folded greeting cards, only flat.

Are you asking about video transitions like turning the pages of a photo book? Where are you seeing the 'flat' greeting cards?
[EDIT] Photoshop Elements has greeting card features including Folded. If that is what you are looking for you will get better advice from the Photoshop Elements forum.
Cheers,

Valid Size not available for this Creation (Greeting card only) - Elements 10 for Mac

I purchased Adobe Photoshop/Premiere Elements 10 for my MAC and am getting "VALID SIZE NOT AVAILABLE FOR THIS CREATION" when I try to create a GREETING CARD only. All other options in CREATE work.
I have read other forums on here and have tried everything they have said and it still does not work. I have tried:
opt, cmd and shift to delete preferences
uninstalled and reinstalled
performed updates on both my MAC and the program
Can anyone PLEASE suggest other solutions to this problem? Perhaps I am doing something wrong. Thanks!

Hi - My file structure is somewhat different than the file structure that you describe in the first part of your note (My system is Windows XP with Service Pack 3). This is what my file structure looks like:
    C:/Program Files/Adobe/Elements 10 Organizer/locales/en_US
         >application_swfs
         >Plug-Ins
         >Suppport Files
No Creation Graphics folder, no Kodak Gallery Folder, no files with the name E9_preview_photocard_1(or2).jpg.
I perfromed a hard drive search on filename E9_preview_photocard* and found these files under:
     C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Adobe\Photoshop Elements\10.0\Locale\en_us\CreationGraphics\local
I performed a hard drive search on Kodak Gallery and found the file under:
     C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Adobe\Photoshop Elements\10.0\Locale\en_us\CreationGraphics\Kodak Gallery
This Kodak Gallery folder contains 10 files, 2 of which appear to be related to Greeting Cards. These are 5x7_adobe_folded_cards and 5x7_adobe_folded_cards_zoom
Regarding the 235x120 greeting files, I search and found these under
     C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Adobe\Photoshop Elements\10.0\Photo Creations\photo layouts
NOW WHAT???
thanks
