RE: Xmas card swap and howdy!

MessageWelcome Matt,
I scan and print out my postcards and have found a bright white card stock
paper at Office Depot that I have used as well as a heavy weight cotton
paper from Photo Warehouse to give good results.

I set up the front of my cards[image] in Publisher and print them out at
photo quality and then I take out the images and replace with text boxes to
resemble store bought post cards then turn the image side over and print
the backs.

Others have enclosed them in a greeting card or an envelope with a holiday
greeting.

Hope this helps,
Take Care,
Chuck Flagg

Subject: [pinhole-discussion] Xmas card swap and howdy!

  I've been subscribed to this list for a long while. The idea of
participating in the Xmas card swap has drawn me out. Is there a theme or
can I send whatever image(s) I want? The thought of having a stream of
pinhole postcards popping in my postbox over the phestive season is exciting
and I will enjoy making and sending pinhole postcards.

  Can anyone share with me a process for making postcards out of a pinhole
picture? I am able to scan the pictures into my computer and can print them
on an Epson 1280 printer but I don't know what paper etc. I should use to
make the postcard.

  P.S. my pinhole day picture from 2004 is #869

  Matt
