All my designs can be accessed from My portfolio on Mydoodle. Click here to view.

If you see a design that you like click on the image.

Alternatively click on the link like the one below shown under the images on this website. The button below is not an active link. It is used for instruction purposes.

Whichever route you choose a window similar to the one on the right will appear.
On the right of the window are two red buttons.
Click on the top one that says Create a card

The next window that appears requires that you choose to either create a Greetings card or a postcard.
Click on the appropriate Create button.
The following instructions assume that you have chosen to create a greetings card.
The process of creating a postcard is very similar.

The front of the card with your chosen image will be displayed in the next window. The image may have been cropped to fit the card.
You may also be given a warning that says

Print quality may suffer! This image has been zoomed beyond our recommended level. Trying zooming out or using a larger image.

If the design doesn’t fit or you see the above warning you can edit the image.

Click on the card image and a pop-up box will appear containing tools that can be used to resize or rotate the design.
If you receive the warning described or find that some of the design is missing, keep clicking on the - sign button repeatedly until either the warning disappears or the image fits the card.
If you click on the image and hold down the left mouse button you can move the image around the card.
The + sign allows you to make the image larger and the rotation buttons allow you to rotate the design.
Remember to save your work as it progresses.

Once the design has been resized etc, close the pop-up box.
The rotate button at the top of the card allows you to change the orientation of the card - i.e. change from portrait to landscape and vice versa.
Click on the text button to add text to the front of your card in the same way as described for adding text inside the card.
Remember to save your project.
The click on the next button above the card on the right.

To add text to the inside of the card, first type the message into the input area (I’ve highlighted this in red). You can’t type directly onto the image of the card.
Choose your font style, size and colour using the options under the input area.
When you are happy with the choices click the Done button.
Click the red Next button

Enter the details requested in the next window that opens.
If you want the card to be first delivered to your address you can request and extra envelope so you can send the card on to the recipient. (This way the card is sent to you in a strong card envelope to make sure that the card arrives in perfect condition
When the details are complete click Add to Cart.You can then choose to make another card or complete your order.

On the right is a greetings card that I designed for a friend

Greeting cards are 5" x 7" (approx130mm x 180mm) in size .

Each card is coated with a UV protectant on the outside surface which produces a semi-gloss finish.

The inside of each card has a matte white finish and can be customised with a text message up to 500 characters in length.

Cards can be ordered in landscape or portrait with either a white or black background.

The company claim that all greeting card orders ship within 48 hours! But you must allow time for delivery which will depend on the destination. Advice is to order well in advance of the required receipt date.

Each card comes with a white envelope for mailing to the recipient.
