I began to explore file and page setup and managed to print out two on a page - partial card on a 8 1/2 x 11" card stock. However, what I did once I couldn't duplicate a second time so I have a lot more to learn as far as sizing and borders and saving. J. I think I need a step x step scenario to do my cards unfortunately. See below /Users/ruthforeman/Desktop/lilyPicture Package.psd Gil, Thanks so much.

This will provide you with options to edit the paper type and the dimensions of your card. It sounds to me like both of you have not configured these settings...please let me know if it helps. By the way I don't have Sophie's Cards or a MAC so I can't help you there... @Ruth & Debbie Lewis – Have you gone to File > Page Setup?

By the way I don’t have Sophie’s Cards or a MAC so I can’t help you there…

I create using the greeting card and can move a jpeg into the greeting card but that is just a one page card. I would like to either be able to figure out a way to flip it or have a fold as in usual greeting cards done in portrait or landscape. Iphoto seems to be the same way. Sophie's Cards works great but I hoped there was more that I could do with Photoshop Elements 6 or IPHOTO 6 without purchasing ILife. Many thanks. Hi, In my Mac I am using elements 6.

The card template will place the picture on the correct side and it should print in the correct location. Let me know how it goes to see if I can help you. @Debbie Lewis – I’m not familiar with the Mac version so I’m not sure, but are you using a card template?

Windows? Also what are the formats of the pictures you are trying to bring over? JPEG, RAW, PNG? This will help me help you. Thanks. @Elizabeth Russell – What version of Elements are you using?

Am trying to do my own greeting cards. At the moment I used Sophie's cards on my MAC which works out well but would like to be able to use Photoshop Elements 6 and IPHOTO. For Sophie's I use Avery8315 with a card size of 4 1/4 x 5 1/2". I wouldn't mind doing larger cards if I could use the two programs mentioned. Can you help? Many thanks.

I have used Photoshop full on my PC but have the Elements on my MAC. I can't figure out how to print a full 11 x 8.5 so I can do my own folding and cutting. I know how to print a full sheet front and back and then cut or fold but this elements wants to print whatever photo I have in the center of the page. How do you do the inside of the card?

My computer won't do anything at the step where I "Click here to add photo or Drag photo here." When I click, nothing happens, when I drag a photo into that area, it won't take it. I wait, I restart, and nothing helps. Any ideas? Thank you for the great information.
