Step by step guide: Designing your Christmas card with Collart
Choose the format
The very first thing to get started is to select the design ormat for your Christmas card. Are you going to design by freestyle, or looking to use the free Christmas card templates in the app? For this, launch the Collart app, scroll down, and you will find different material resources in the app, along with suitable aspect ratios. Aspect ratio sets the size of your masterpiece. Depending on which social media you will be sharing or posting, you will choose that suits you. You need to be specific so that your content won’t be trimmed when it is uploaded to the web. If you are not sure which one to pick, learn how to choose the perfect aspect ratio for your image.
Select the base
One crucial factor is the background color of your card. There are several colors available in the Collart library. You can play with these to make it more interesting for your card. However, remember to always keep your base simple, so it does not mess up with the main contents of the card.
Christmas is often associated with green (stands for Christmas tree), red (represents Santa), white (representing snow), and gold (ornaments). These are the common colors that we would suggest for the background.
Decide on a theme
Before you start designing, it is always important to have a rough idea of the theme you are going into. There are several different Christmas themes you can design with. Here are some popular themes we would suggest:
- Gingerbreadman with Gingerbread house
- Santa with reindeer
- Princess Elsa and Princess Anna from Frozen
- Olaf the Snowman from Frozen
- Christmas Tree with gifts
Deciding on a theme will help you outline the overall design and makes it easier for you to choose the characters you want to include in your card. Once you have decided on the theme, upload the images of the main characters by tapping on the lower-left corner of the screen. Adjust their size and position accordingly.
Add some decorations
Once you have placed the main character in, it’s now time to give it a fancy touch. Add some stickers such as snowflakes and Christmas candy cane to spice things up a little.
Add text to your card.
Cards are always incomplete without texts as it fills them with emotions. It’s time to express your own feelings through the words in these cards. Collart will elevate these emotions as it has more than a hundred options for font style and font colors.
If you are too shy to write something mushy, you can always quote some simple Christmas wishes from the internet. After all, it’s the thought that counts!
Save and Share
Once you have done with it, tap on the right corner of the screen to import it to social media platforms or save it to the camera roll.
