Tips

  • Adjust Type size or Alignment in Message Atelier if you want to refine the front text.

  • Use Paper to explore the available stationery designs before finishing the card.

  • Watch outCheck the full front preview before printing so a long greeting or signature does not overflow the design.

  • Watch outThe guide shows the card front only; check the inside and back separately before printing a folded sheet.
