Though I have a knack for designing my very own personalized greeting cards, I have to admit, it does take more time than usual because most of the time, I get tons of ideas for the design and I end up changing the layout or template more than I should. I end up using a generic card that I'll hate afterwards. Discovering the beautiful art of digital scrapbooking made it even harder for me because I can't decide on what elements I should use and I end up over-designing a supposedly simple, but elegant card. Thank goodness there are sites like Minted.com to calm my creative side.

Since it's the Lenten season, let's take for instance the Easter Cards designs they have available on their online store. I love the simplicity of their designs. But, don't get me wrong. I love how they laid out all the elements to give you an eye-catching, unique design to make your card-giving more pleasing, even for the recipients. i would personally keep them if I received one of these cards.

I was checking out their catalogue of cards for Easter and was delighted by how cute the designs were. I checked out the preview of a layout I loved and I find it very convenient that everything I needed to know about how the end-result or actual card will look like is all laid out there for me to inspect. I can even change the color of some of the elements if I wanted, including the envelopes that'll come with them.

When you hit the Personalize button, you'll be given choices on what paper you want the card to be printed. There's a corresponding charge or additional price in case you preferred something else other than their signature paper.

On the next pages, you'd be prompted with the elements of the design you can change. And, then, the most important part, replacing the photo used on the card. You can either get it from your Photo Box or upload a new one. Afterwards, you can edit the text and the design for the envelopes. I tested it out and everything was easy and quick. No Photoshop or design application skills required at all.

Among all the designs I loved, these 2 are my favorites:
