Halloween Delight – Perfect Greeting Card for 10 y/o boy

I have a new neighbor. He and his mom moved in across the street the first of October, but by the end of September, I knew they enjoyed Halloween. Why? They had brought along a skeleton – life size, and buried it in their garden. So I used photos of the poor fellow in the greeting card I sent him last week. Here’s the front of my new friend’s greeting card:

Here’s what I did on the inside of the card, using the same template and the full picture of the remains left in his garden. You’ll notice I moved some of the elements from the original template over to the right inside page to balance the message.

To top it off, I included a trick or treat, depending on how you look at it. The greeting card system that I use, includes gifts, and I decided to include a very fuzzy, 23-inch spider complete with glitter with my card. Why for a young man I hardly know? Because I can. Why not?

Depending on the kind of package one has, a personalized, fun photo card like this costs between $.93 (93 cents) or $1.47 (147 cents). Sure the gift was extra, but the whole thing ran me a little over $13.00, plus shipping.

Just think what you could do to make your Holiday cards
remembered and really appreciated

in 2010 !

Make a kid’s day – pointers for teachers and parents!

I have a friend, Ethan. He’s a real cool kid. In April he was named Student of the Month for his class.

Student of the Month is a BIG deal. So is getting your award in a school assembly. So I took the award that was posted on his mom’s Face Book page, threw it in my photo editor, saved it at 300 dpi, and uploaded it into the system that I use to send out all my greeting cards.

Now here’s a custom, greeting card, congratulating the special student on his great achievement. What kid doesn’t like to receive a greeting card? Don’t you think he’ll feel extra special?

I know of one teacher that takes her list of students for the new year and sends out a welcome to my class greeting card. Inside the card is a picture of her, so her students will recognize her when they come to school. Do you think that makes a difference in how well her year goes? Even before school starts her students are beginning to build a relationship with her. That’s another neat way to use a custom, photo greeting card. How many ways can you think of to motivate and compliment the children in your life? Custom photo cards cost between $1.47 to $.93, plus a stamp, depending on the type of account you want.
