The one unavoidable “issue” I’ve encountered with this is that more often than not, your squares won’t all come out the same size. Any smaller than that and you may run into trouble. It’s very easy to make a collage like this in any editing software, and you don’t have to use huge squares – since you’re printing very small, most places will give you really good quality prints if each square is 750×750 pixels (the file itself being 2250×1500 px). Then I take those files to the photo lab. Most photo labs and printing services start at 4″ x 6″ (10 x 15 cm), so what I do is crop each photo to a square and make a collage with six of them. The trickiest part of this whole thing may be getting your photograph printed. – a print of your photograph on matte paper It’s cute and useful, is what I’m saying. The best part is you can use any photo you have, including the kind you take for Instagram! If my sister took a lunchbox to school, I’d probably put notes in it with ridiculous pictures of our cat. These are great to include a handwritten thank-you note with your orders if you have an online business – I include one in all of mine! You can also use them as little notes for lunchboxes, or punch a hole in a corner and attach it to a gift. Keep in mind that you can use this tutorial to make cards of any size, but I’ll take you through my 2″ x 2″ (5 x 5 cm.) folded note card process because that’s the kind I make the most of. Tutorial: DIY 2×2 Folded Photo Note Cards
I’ve been making my cards that way since, and this post is me passing along that idea. So one day I was talking about this in the FPOE (Female Photographers of Etsy) group, and someone told me she just made her own – with double-sided tape, the kind people use for scrapbooking.
I could order cards online, but it had to be in batches, and the shipping costs were higher than the price of the cards. This tutorial was originally posted on my blog.Ī while ago I was getting frustrated because I wanted to sell cards with my photographs on them in my Etsy shop, but I couldn’t afford a printer and none of the photo labs in town were up for printing cards for me.
