Creating Folded Greeting Cards and Invitations
Divide the page into four sections
To create a folded greeting card, divide a single page into four sections. For now, let's call the four sections: A, B, C, and D.
A - Front of card
B - Back of card
C - Left inside of card
D - Right inside of card
If it helps you visualize the quadrants of your card, you can draw two intersecting lines on the page. Be sure to delete these lines later unless you want them to appear on your card.
Any text or images in sections A and B should be placed there upside down, so that when the card is folded, they appear right side up.
Next, simply drag and drop clip art from the libraries and add text. To turn your clip art or text upside down, either rotate it using their rotation handles or in select Flip - Vertically from the Arrange menu.
Fold the page in half horizontally
Then fold it in half vertically
To personalize one of the ready-made card templates, double-click on any portion of the text and edit it. You can also add additional text using the text tool. Just type text anywhere in the background and then drag it into position.
Print your card and fold as follows:
1. Fold in half horizontally
2. Fold in half vertically
