You can upload your favorite holiday picture and they will send you back photo postage stamps that you can use on your envelops. And for free fun, you can print some more pictures on the envelope.
Next on the list is www.costcophotocenter.com and www.kodakgallery.com. At both places you can have your photos placed on almost anything. First you log in and set up an account, and then you can start to create. Here are just a few ideas for you: Notebooks, Note Pads, Mugs, Holiday Ornaments, Coasters, Mousepads, Pillowcases, Picture Frames, Calendars, Tote Bags, T-Shirts, Aprons, Cards & Invitations, Labels, Books, Mini Books, Posters, Playing Cards, Puzzles, Stickers, Keepsake Boxes, Desk Organizers and Teddy Bears. There is also a Magic Tiled Mug: You have pictures printed on the mug which appears black until something hot is put into it. Then the pictures show up! www.photocrazed.com is another web site that will help you turn your photos into art. You just pick a style and send them your photo.
The best way to learn how to accomplish these tasks is to take my photos classes at the CCSN. I will teach you how to do these things yourself. I will also teach you how to fix up photos, restore photos and have fun with photos. Just last week everyone in my class added a sunset behind Hoover Dam and a cruise ship next to the dam.
I hope this will help you get started. Remember to always back up your photos on CD or DVD before you start to work on them.
