we've got point by day now we're good to go i click OK again now we're going to add tax I'm gonna go to the home screen and put your cursor here and we don't I for this particular credited money spacing so a click new space thing I you a bradley hand bond at points but you can do whatever you want in terms of size you can make all sorts of adjustment and here when I do this text box you can also make it inches so goes all the way to the edge I just found this a little easier to use in Allegany go ahead and get started I'm just gonna height attacks and at that point I mean and click on Insert and then insert them all because I wanna Serco and I got a more symbols and there's the circle and a click Insert and hit close they develop faster over that again than a minute hike in the tight all have my website paper well way would be helpful if I could Bell paper boutique and then I'm gonna show you again how to insert them ball more them all and I'm just going to click on a circle insert you could copy and paste at this point I mean at space parents based on the other side and then on to Spanish but the address and then I hit return I needed a space there let me add a being hit return and then I'm gonna type in my URL paper boutique dont blog spot dot com and then one last time in like I think you can cut and paste that I'm just showing you how to insert a sim ball and then hit insert name close and then I'll go ahead and to you my family member can now at this point you click away and you can see how it how it looks and I mean it highlighted go back to the home screen and hit Center side internet and that looks pretty good but now if you were to print this you would get that the wine around the text box so we're gonna solak for an agreement that will select the text box we're gonna go to format shape note fell wind power no line HomeClick close and they're getting I think it might want that down a little bit lower on my screen so let me just click on it manganese the arrow to bring it down a little and this is where you can kinda play around with it see how you want it on your business card now if we were to copy this particular document we couldn't because it into pieces are we moved it we get two separate pieces so what I want to do is group I mean hit the ship can hold the shift key selected text box select this text box I have I'm holding the Shift key down on go to trying to also group click on group and now you can see its group so we can move it array and let me just say and it stays together as a group now why i cant a link click on it again I mean I right click copy can emit over here and help control be which in the keyboard shortcut for pain so now what I can do if I can copy and paste best all all over there paper or 12 by paper then I'll go ahead and put a pizza color cardstock in depending on the size is it attorney up by company how by P said colored cardstock in your printer and then go ahead imprint that and then you can cut around each each at the edges now this is just one technique and if you're making a lot of them it might make sense to do it this way but I like to do and get her hollers up cards back from a background so let me show you one other technique I go ahead and collect has been deleted now at this point what i do. is Iran up he said printer paper thrill and I use this as a template then i cud a piece of color cardstock thats to you by inches and they keep it over the top at this time tape it right on top here you can see where my Aero small piece of removable tape on each side made it there marrow and at the bottom %uh so you're my best when we get together and Justin so after writing that then I'll run it to the printer again but if he noticed if Iran the printer you'll still get that line so what we're gonna do you know is willful act it will right click and we'll go to format object go to know fell wind power no line power in close and as you can see now when you read it to the printer you won't get that line this will make a little bit more sense when we get back together and I'll show you how to assemble the card well why don't we do that now and will get back together in a moment and assemble the card well let's go ahead and assemble the card from now let me show you what we tested signed on the computer this is this sample have where i cud weep for three made this text box family made the internal tax box group them and then copy them so if you wanted to you when you copy a full-page at these if you wanted you more than one with the same background color for example if you wanted to make several with this pink you could just ran and peace at pink cardstock and this through your printer and then you could just go ahead and cut out on the wines well the other technique which I use most frequently because you can see I'm using different paper and you can also use double-sided paper I wanted to point that out I'm always using a different color eighth and this with the technique that we talked about that you would one through let me move the out of the way so we can concentrate on that you would run it through the computer there's a template underneath and then you would hope that in four spots using this is a removable masking tape you cookies any type of tape as long as you am help to remove from the stickiness by putting it again piece of clothing and then you just hope it down and I always do in a row as to which way I insert the paper in the printer and then I went ahead and just get this next in order to make in this business card what I did if I obviously we may depend I can take the time to do that and then I hide Keith cardstock its three-and-a-half inches wide by one and inches deep or 16th is just one sixteenth away from one and a half and so just depends on what you like you can modify an attack by if you can modified this next I went ahead and just used San and Glee at my clear and make a printer let me get that out my tape runner to attach it and then and next step I went ahead and used my corner rounder and I love my crop it I'll corner Chomper and all a kid was used the fourth at the mansion it just open like this put it down and it cuts through I think it up public health report by players it's amazing at work through chipboard as well so then I did that and Max what I did as i cud a theory narrow strip have paper and it is I one or wait a minute its and convenient by three and a half inches but I mean it just a little bit longer and then I when a kid is like colluded going on using my favorite to on Monday show you a couple with my favorite roles this is a to weekly stack the Cooloola is blue when it swept that turns clear when it's dry and if you let it dry clear you can reposition I like this particular tip for doing a little larger this a pretty fine piece of paper cell when I like to use is this a teeway clue it's called the squeezing raw you can see that the little and it's just at can so fine and this is what I used it on a lot of my cricket cut anything there intricate cuz you can get em the area very fine be difficult when you let it dry and then it's repositionable and then you put it down and it will still the adhesive is great so I added the strap and then what I did this particular card is a just added feel I've their rhinestones to the center and the flower let me bring in I meant the other than this particular moment and with basic gray and this is not you don't have to add the strip this is just part of the paper and this is on double-sided cardstock and this doesn't have the strip and Center this one doesn't either and it's just an solid cardstock and then me at this one too so they're super easy and superfine and of fell

we ordered eight by ten prince from ten different web sites and in this video we're gonna tell you which ones are the best and which ones were not so Print Services Comparison: Which Website Makes the Best Prints? !!! great this video is made possible by fracture fracture prints or photos and David colored directly to class it the picture frame and mount Paul and one to get your photo printed on bosko to fracture me dot com and use the coupon code Chelsea or Tony to get fifteen-percent of but you should use the coupon code Chelsea because there's a competition printed new address cards and the guy fractured told me that I'm winning we all might change again back use the name of the person that you feel like has the most camera trivia story in their head you should use the name and the person that is the cutest or tallest am and earliest him thank you and now on yeah something to say regarding conflict of interest fractured does not make a by friends like these that were you make glass prints only they're very specialized they're not included in this competition that would be biased right but they are making this video possible and they're good option so why not print at home we definitely tried printing at home for an extended period time with model different printers but I always found was the different and have been more expensive because Inc for printers is expensive but also I with your hit rate on printing at home they had to print everything like two or three times a year or less thing is I've never had one of those really large expensive professional printers but the thousands of dollars yeah and then take a lot of space I mostly the Internet archival you there so you make a present if I get a right and then you hang onto onto your letter will be updated printing sending out to an Internet service providers also this problems the prints are higher quality they last longer and you don't have to pay for your scrubs so for that reason which is always send out our stuff we gave up on printing at home and I that's right how most people do too but about one hour photo services the terrible writer just just always pretty bad we didn't include any of those and this review but we have done them before an appendage your and they we haven't had I have much luck right well anyone are printing service has the printer on site so when you go to Walmart or the pharmacy or whatever there is using the whole printer there is being run by whoever happens to work there not some sort expert so they don't have the big machinery that makes good quality archival prints a pretty much look like the Prince you get out of a bubble jet and they to stockholder so we don't recommend those either instead we recommend sending out to one of the site yes to the that we review today were Bay photo a teenage Color Lab W HCC Walmart Adorama pics nations photo lab ampex prodi PI Shutterfly CG pro print these are on the US but if you're outside the US I hope you'll take into consideration the factors that we're looking at and evaluate another printers in your own country but these do all ship throughout the US we judged each photo on a scale using the following criteria: color tone exposure clarity the finish in way and the photo packaging ordering jeans and also the price so who are the winners well as also add that this was a blind test so when we were looking at the photos and rating and we didn't know which photo we were raiding until we were done we use dem pics for years and we were really surprised to find that they're the best we like them we hadn't used a bunch of different printing services so it was a good surprise so yet ampex 49 and points two dollars and nine cents I like the photo so much that I A put it in a frame so the tap is Ben but the colors great the papers a good quality I it sharp and as you look at the picture you can see why we chose this particular picture it's got a lot of skin tones which are important in a lottery by print but also has a really rich dynamic range part the almost why and then there are just deep deep shadows wanna make sure the printer got natural skin tones and cover that complete dynamic range with great contrast W HC see came in second place they had great skin tones they're also clear didn't think they were quite is rich as and pics but it was Billy a close second
and points and my cam pics the website was also pretty easy to use neck India a big factor to some these web sites had a really difficult the tools to get your pictures actually up yeah if the downplayed couple downloading uploading Taylor suffered I'm one thing I liked about wht see is that they give you samples have all the different papers luster and metallic and linen texture so the next time you on order with them if you would like to try something different you have a good idea what you're gonna like death knights to either and Pixar wht CR great choices in the US again not sponsors here in third place present strong feelings about the API these were free samples they do put a watermark on them so you can't use them we got three free samples their packaging was good and I also came with candy you have candy they get a little bit they get a little push for the candy the prints were pretty good became a little more pink in the skin tones yeah that's why they didn't get a perfect score I am but I also like that they provided again samples of all the different finishes like specialty payroll and Matt and they also gave you samples of cards so that if you want to get them printed for your clients to yourself you could see examples but they deal and it's really beautiful and Vikings address the question how some people are thinking why would the colors vary from one printing service to another because after all the colors are embedded in your pictures should be the same but it doesn't work that way cuz you taking a digital image and then printing it and it depends on the printer that the use so these printers will have profiles and you could theoretically go in an embedded in my room and try to match up manually on but for the most part most practical way to do things is to allow the printing service to adjust your pictures to get the colors perfect and a good printing service will look at every single picture and use their knowledge of how their printer is working to make sure the colors come on nationalism company that person and they're making the adjustment so individual printing services can give you very different result to the same pictures speaking at that next bisbee a photo and I had a bit of a problem with their color I don't know if he'll be able to see it here the city is a bit hard to make for that reason it's difficult to show the prints they photo so the hair has green tones in it instead of golden or even or in your warm tones as some green cooler towns and everything else was okay with sharp the paper quality was good but the colors were off so that's why they lost some points but again not terrible out of 50 points that's dollars it's a bargain paper also has a really difficult to use website now Bay photo uses most the time you have to use a separate a blur to like a Windows app that runs and they have an incredible number have different types the printer you can make which is nice for those of you who want to make some creative printing get it printed on wood were like balls are like a hundred different formats in different shapes and big sizes and for that reason I do really use paper do I need to make a specialty like fine art gallery print they have just great options but the website is a pain to use its way easy to use ampex I didn't way I didn't take way too many points for the finicky uploader just because once you have it it's gonna be a barrier to entry but the something that if you like their services Ben it's not gonna be a deal breaker yet what you've done it twice you'll have it work yeah so I didn't penalize them too much for that I really focused more on the politics I think if you get really good quality than you're willing to to deal with some other scorekeeping yeah H&H Color Lab also in third place I had again color problem her skin looks really pink and it wasn't as clear as the other month see nations I the paper quality is thinner noticeably course I can't really show that to you but I can feel that it's a bit flimsy year it's pretty sharp the color looks pretty good its noticeably not as good as the others but I think it's good enough I think if you've just got this one alone would be happy with that and now onto are not great I don't wanna column losers because we just have one sample but in this limited experience I'm we didn't have a very good experience for them the first one is CG pro prints it's a thicker print it's very thick and has more for texture to it it makes it look very grainy and its pink warm and not very sharp so awesome points it's also eight dollars and fifty cents for this one prim and it is thick and I can feel the difference but I it's actually not good for the picture in los quality because that paper texture your Adorama packs look at that color let me show you let me show you a good one just to show the difference here that you can seeing you see that Justin it is so green it's just awful you wouldn't want to put that on your wall but the paper quality is good and a sharp but when the colors that that what do you do with that another one with bad color is Walmart its unsharp its grainy color is terrible I would not recommend warmer still better there one hour Prince and in last place was Shutterfly a this one not only was the color of the Spurs an example good color the the Shutterfly but her face was blown out details lost it's really pink they tried to bring up the shadows when they should not have a fair they had had a person overlooking this photo they would have said know there

inches and a height up inches and a resolution up 300 pixels per inch now actual printed business cards have a with a pages and a high up two inches this template has an extra what extra point inches added on to both the way and the height to allow for bleed room because when business cards get printed and cut there's extra stuff that might get cut off on the site so there's little area is put there to make sure that nothing important gets cut up and the resolution is pixels per inch to make sure that your business card looks professional and as high quality as possible seek a dollar this template using the link in the video description below what you get when the dollar this template is obviously the preset that already showed you guys and also you get these little guidelines on and what these do is they're just there to make sure that you don't buy any important information on the side because the other side that might get cut up so with that being said I'm going to delete I love this and was just started with the actual design so the first thing that we want to do is grad the right angle to and wanna make a blue rectangle that those up most a our business card and the color for this rectangle is gonna have a hex code a d one at

hey guys so today I'll be showing you how to make your very own business cards at home business cards are great way the easily and professionally DIY Business Cards | XO PIXEL !!! exchanger contact information on the go you never know we might run into here are some business cards that I created this design is simple yet pretty effective I used a very clean edge business card paper if you have an inkjet printer remember to check if the paper is inkjet compatible the template I'm using is $
discount online printing the cards are prefered on the sheet so all you need to do is snap the cartel with a bit a bending no coding needed lastly having a high quality printer will either make or break your designs I recently purchased this Epson WorkForce printer and I must say it's amazing the photo call the issue to how it looks on the computer which is extremely important if you wish to have high-quality results to download the template for your every business cards head on over to their website enter the template number look for the template that is compatible with Adobe Illustrator click download the two software programs that are used are adobe photoshop and Adobe Illustrator open up all the photos you wish to put on the back your business cards and Adobe Photoshop when editing I recommend duplicating the lear first before you make any changes so that you can see a difference and also allow you to keep the original photo if you don't like the changes made when editing it's in good practice to edit non-destructive week you can do this by using the adjustment layers pain are normally found on the right hand side this standard adjustments that I do included Justin the color balance brightness contrast saturation and adjusting the current levels while you can really see the difference the adjustment layers me to now that you're done all your photos good image mode CMYK color did this all of your photos so that they're ready for printing any photo you plan to create should be put in CMYK mode since the business cards are to buy three and a half will need to make sure that the photos will be similar to that aspect ratio to do this click on the crop tool and go into the preset menu selected to buy three option and rotate it so it fits landscape wise if everything looks good then click the check mark for photos are on the porch inside will do the same thing and decide what part of the photo we want to showcase this looks like a good part click the check mark and then save all your photos I recommend saving your photos as a tip file not a peg so now let's get started on the design open up the business card template in illustrating we're going to design the French the cards first I'm going to take a ruler in the middle of the cards to help align the graphics I place the local type on the left to the business cards and my contact information on the right remember this is the fun part because it could be as creative as you like get creative and fiddle around with what you want to have on the front of your cards people minimalistic anything in between I've created an alternative design that is super easy to make and it still looks amazing the fund I am using is aerial I also added a background color and I change the font color two-way notice that the background is slightly bigger than the guide this is to allow for a full breed I also added my main contact information at the bottom see local easy it was to make if you don't have illustrator Avery has templates that can be used in Microsoft Word if you still have the same design on the front the cards just copy/paste until you finish template looks like this now let's start working on the back at the business cards on the back you can open up a new template file by making you are bored and copy the guide onto the newark board like I did I suggest creating a new layer to keep your work organized also make sure documents is set to CMYK mode that way any colors you choose RNC my came not RGB place all the images you edited in Photoshop onto the are born at first my place images they're huge but if you do Mel hardship NJ go quite as you're able to resize the photos while keeping its proportions repeat this for all your photos stored it doesn't matter it's all up to you now we don't placing in finger photos and as you can see there slightly larger than the guides to give room for a bleed the last step to designing a business card is to add a logo in the corner all I did was select my name from the front business cards and I resized it a little smaller inequity in the corner I also changed its color to white added drop shadow to text if the background is too late tele we finished designing your business cards now all we need to do is print before you bring your cards make sure to compare all your texts outlines for now it's Chris text when printing in l.a share go to File then print go into Page Setup and make sure the papers format it for your printer in the paper size is US Letter size set scaling to do not scale set the are bored range because you want to print the back in front individually going to set up and make sure that the media type is cool glossy this is the recommended setting by Avery for this particular pack a business cards make sure the quality is set to best now all you have to do is print the repeat the same steps back redone even officially design your own business cards now hand them out to everyone you know and show off

either what are the best ways to promote your digital artwork is to create a business card having a business card will make it really easy How To Make A BUSINESS CARD with Photoshop CC !!! to network with people because you can hand out your Cardinal have all of your services a sample if your artwork and your contact information and a link to your portfolio you can hand these out people are you can leave in places that's a really good way to hear just kinda get your name out there unfortunately the it's not printing page something that you can do I'm with curl painter and a lot of my videos are curl painter videos but this would be pretty much you'd be pulling your hair out trying to do any the stuff in cropping or even though there is a text to learn everything it's just a real pain so I wouldn't suggest using Photoshop for this you can get a free 30-day trial Photoshop from Adobe's website if you go to the download link and product trials it's like Photoshop also quite affordable to you just rented on a monthly basis with their Creative Cloud Service you can check that out to you or go back to Photoshop and so we have an example here just a quick car that I mean on first thing that you're going to want to do is you gonna need to pick a place to print your cards from any you can print them yourself or you can have them printed to an online service I'm not really gonna suggest anybody specifically by it a meet some cards for somebody the other day when I my clients and they went with this website here and their specs where a product size 3.5 inches by two inches with a bleed such as a
by inches so essentially what that means is the card is going to get rimmed off for this dotted line is anything that's outside of that dotted line is probably going to get cut off so if you had a background that you wanted to bleed to the edge which is a printing term if you want the Inc to go all the way off the edge of the paper so there's not a white border anything then you have to have it go past the paper in the treatment of so there's a a certain margin you have to account for when you make your cards some web sites might not have this it might not matter and you can just upload your image as is but it's good to check and see it'll save you a lot of time anyone have to redesign the card after you finish it also note some things that they want specific file types and specific resolution DPI and for the backside they want you to rotate the image degrees so basically they want you to flip it upside down so that Prince properly so you could have to watch out for some stuff like that but most spring web sites will have specs or they'll have a template which is a file you can download to open in Photoshop once you have the crack specs you can even use the specs here go ahead and move forward so we know our products as gonna be 3.5 by and we want this plead size to be what they have listed here there's a few different ways we can do this I find that the easiest way for me Estes make a new document and will make it the size that we want to eventually trailers which is by 2 inches so we're gonna change her with from inches from pixels to inches suffering a inches by two inches and will serve as resolution to and their color mood Ferguson CMYK so that's the kind of color mode you have to use when you're printing you can use RGB also it kinda really doesn't matter too much but which is can use proper green principles here and will neighbor card for community thing wont go okay and I recommend going and just saving your card right now I just so you don't have to really worry about messing anything up you know where it is so that next thing that will do is we're going to make sure that you can see rulers so what you have to do this you have to go to the View menu and then select rulers are you could get control or a new keyboard all had revealed these rulers appear so to have a ruler you can click on the ruler and drag with your mouse to drag down guy when you release your mouse you really should guide you hover over it when you get this little icon you can adjusted sort these guys will be useful this kind of latest set some reference marks know we're going to want to do this for gonna make sure that we step to this edge here edge if the document if that's not happening monitor the View menu and make sure snaps enabled in a snap to menu make sure that snap to you document bounds or guides is enabled and go ahead and just read another going down to the bottom and do the two sides so we've got guides that surround our car here now will go to the Image menu in with the Kansas its we're gonna change the size or Candace which is good we're going to make ur card bigger but archives against and the same place that where guides will be representative where the card will be trained so will change this to you
and Tripoli because that's going to be our believe dimensions that were required by the printer and was fun make sure that this gold dots in the center here so that everything experience from the senator howard click OK know you go now we've had this bleed area and that's exactly what we need snow we want to make sure that when we're designing a card that we don't my anything go outside at this line that we don't want to get cut off so it's okay if color or a background pattern gets cut off because that means to bleed off the page but anything else like your information you don't want to go even anywhere near this line here if you're just gonna have a white background you have to worry about anything at all speak sure that everything stays in the center here so louisiana just a little bit Curtis cards going into creating small so we don't really look at it to big and when I recommend doing is making a folder I'm to store your card Photoshop file in and within that folder you could also store some assets if you already have them Lake artwork or graphics or your logo things that you might want to use or photograph anything you want to put on the card just get all that stuff together and put it in the same folder let's just good design practice for everything I think so here's the folder I have here and it's got a my logo it's pretty good sized version of it that way you know I can credit in a high-resolution and I've ca just a piece of artwork you going through my card I recommend the if you're an artist me making a business card for yourself you should put a piece of artwork on I wouldn't go crazy and good
pieces of art you know it's gonna be a small card but just pick one thing that kinda stands alone nicely and this piece in particular has a white background already so I can kinda place it anywhere in work text around it and once you've got your image it's going to make it a lot easier to pick colors things you so on the Select these few images and the way I like to do my layouts for pretty much anything that I do graphic design related is a generally like to put the images in first and then do the text after that because generally speaking the text ends up falling around the images so really quickly to put images into your Photoshop document it's just select whichever images you images or files you wanna you can hold control on your keyboard click on multiple files to select different files here and I'm going to drag it down to my taskbar when Windows taskbar and hover over the Photoshop icon in Photoshop or open and when still while holding down the mouse go over to the Photoshop on it that's now open and is going to release my mouse and that's gonna place these files into the document and then if I don't want to resize them at all which in this case and only want to do right now I was gonna click the checkbox to commit to that placement do the same for this one and these to image assets are added as their own separate layers in Photoshop there's a special icon here that indicates that the user smart layers so if I skill them up or down they're not going to degrade in image quality so that these images here in here we can can play around with them a little bit if you find that your images are coming in too small for this resolution is DPI I recommend fining wait either enlarge the images or pick a different image because you might need to a pretty big image here to work with this type of resolution reason why we're working with DPI eyes because it just makes for a nicer print so now we can use the black arrow to hear to move these layers around wherever we want them to be and if we want it change the hors d'oeuvres layers the way that they're stacked we can drag himself I wanna put the logo on top of them are of a click and drag in I can move on top of the other if we want to change the size at them scale them you can hit control T or you can go to at it Free Transform I was going to use the shortcuts though and it'll give you these transform handles now if you just drag love them you're gonna squashing image what you probably don't want to do so what you gonna want to do to correct that is full shift while you're driving in shift or constrain it in proportion if you also hold alt while holding SHIFT it will scale from the central constraining so that can be helpful if you very pleased something you can keep it in the same place but you can just make it bigger smaller sonamy I love about this big click the checkbox to commit to that change and then I'm going to just drag it over to the side here if you want to drug something in constrained to an Access like the horizontal axis here and what I mean by that is and moving it but I can't move up or down even if I move my mouse afternoon this is happening because I'm holding SHIFT so as I was dragging a story holding shift in a constrained to the sexes I wanted to constrain it vertically it started raining vertically hold SHIFT now you can see that I can't move it to the left to the right sons gonna put it right about here and resize my mom of again I'm gonna do you control team to transform it and in a skillet from the center while constraining by holding shift and alt it's making about this big right here Beach keyboard shortcuts really important because makes it faster to do things if you don't have to keep repositioning everything so if you can kinda just keep things online from the beginning it's going to make it easier to work with later so now one thing we should look into before we start really placing tax and everything you gonna wanna find some way to divide up the scarred and make it look nice and you have to kind of account for what you have in your so I know I have the logo on it to be about this big and i won there to be a lot of hard work because it's going to be a small card my you know look something like this: so really want artwork to stand out in the text just has to be readable just gonna be some information so if we wanna know where to place things just to make them look good you can use something that's called the rule of thirds and if you imagine that you can this is divided up into grid and give you an example here this is a agreed it's a rule of thirds great so everything's divided into 3 call rose three four columns so what i recommend doing is placing year image assets for your text within these areas so I'll ogres within this column in this role here my artwork is mostly taking a these two hear than everything else can kinda just you know flow around but that generally makes it easy to to do a layout if you just kinda do everything with them relive thirds your layouts you can look good ninety-nine percent of the time the E I pulled up that good by going to the crop tool here and you can just click and you have to be careful because if you change this box at all its gonna trim awesome if your image so be careful not to do that you can use it just to get a visual so I think tomorrow the place for the stuff I was gonna tidy up some things here in a double click on these layer names and I'm gonna name them just to make it look nicer and now we can go ahead and add some text so we can take the textile here you can get to you on your keyboard for the textile and was gonna click and we can start typing syntax now I recommend picking a fart thats readable and in New York pick something that's obviously not too big into small depending on if you're going to have a line to the left or right or center you might want to take that first on a pic center because I want my text here to be centered fans can go ahead and type in my name okay to commit to that you really have to worry too much about the font size because you can transform text like you can with an image doing control T on your keyboard and surrounded in you know hunt around with the spot sizes here trying to pick the right side of the scale it down and then go ahead in rounded off to a nice even point size here works pretty well for that I would say for the card for business card be published in grozny smaller than about a and six would even be pushing it because it's not going to be very readable for the average person free font size really want sorry between nineteen
miss you gonna have just a really big piece a text or something or a logo you could do that pretty big but really it's up to you how you want to design this you have to do everything horizontally to do vertically you can make a bigger wider Carter skinny fit her car your the really anything you want this is kind of the principles is making a card slot you know I'm not telling you that you have to do everything and the way I'm doing here design wise so as I mentioned earlier about keeping alignment to just to save you time isn't another neat little trick so if we're gonna want more tax that's going to be the same font size an ally and at the same way that this is here rather than going to the type tool and placing other PC type and then having to constantly realigned all the pieces a type that you had it's easier just to clone what you have so the way the on some things you hold down alt when you have the air tool selected and your icon will change to this double arrow see there's a black and white one and anytime that you click can you drag with the icon your clone a new layer into that position so if you clone and you hold SHIFT know you can come now you can constrain your clothes to an axis so if we constrain it now to this vertical axis we get a copy that's aligned we don't have to line it later rates are deep realigned and since we picked I center alignment ahead of time when we go to change this text that will stay aligned if we didn't do that it would possibly be left the line and then we'd have to go through in do an extra step up having to realign everything so thinking and really helps when you're working with this kinda stuff you can be yourself whatever kinda I tell you what misconceived visual artist but sometimes I use Illustrator artist for hire you know want two different things or click the checkbox to commit to that text and again if we wanted to and more text with the where we want to clone selected down open the keyboard drag shift while holding on dragging and holding with your mouse still and then release your mouse and shifting all together when you want to just leave it somewhere there if we want to change the texts like the text tool and we can change it you could put in you know phone number could give you my phone number here but you need to put in your phone number if you want thus all those text you can place for everyone in if you decide you don't like it where it is you know of course you can move it somewhere else goes for any other stuff if you wanted to do something as a group and keep it all together you know maybe I wanted me this logo and this text together I can hold down SHIFT and click on the lower layer to select contiguous layers or to select independently a signal down control and just pick different layers here with the loose selected that they can do a control G to group them from in a committed group here that I can manipulate so with this group selected no can move the entire group I wanna move independent objects within the group you can select them right move them again holding shift to keep things constrained you can also use the arrow keys on your keyboard up and down left and right she hold SHIFT while using their keys you can not things in larger increments if you wanna kinda finding something that's pretty easy to do and again you just go back to the group if you want to meet with the group as a whole no centering things and aligning things it's pretty easy to do in Photoshop would say we want to make sure that this whole group here is perfectly centered with the entire card here so we can you something as a reference to center upon which is the card background because it takes up the whole document so anything that we choose to center with will get centered just basically in the senate the document so with background selected that's this white background we can home controller keyboard and select the info layer which is this year and we'll get some alignment options and we'll go with this option here which is aligned vertical senators so now we know that this piece of info is more or less perfectly centered this doesn't always get it right now does most of the time but you might find that even if it is perfectly centered by what Photoshop thinks is centered statically it doesn't look right to die so I would still recommend adjusting things until you feel that their senator there where you think they should be so and then move the server and a little bit using their Okies and then by my office think is pretty good work on it let's add some more texts on and go back this in full they ran on a clone summer this text here by holding alt my keyboard and let's put some more contact info it's good to let people know how to get a hold the view if you have a website a that's even better to put on your card you can also put it your Facebook page or your twitter feed you know pretty much anything that you would use to contact people scape I recommend if you have a really long complicated web site name like idea and smoked for words you can use caps here because it doesn't matter if people take them in with the cancer without the caps it's still going to your website and I feel that makes it easier to read you don't have to put in the WWW you know of but in the HTTP semi colon slash slash all that junk it's really up to you what you want to use here you go something like that sometimes it just depends on your design so I see that this is too big to fit within my safe area here so we're gonna change the font size a bit to you man will work maybe about here its clone this again holding alt and shift to keep it aligned while cloning and let's put in some info about what we do you anticipate will get a good idea he have multiple mediums that you work in or you offer multiple services but that kinda stuff and then people get step quick glimpse into what you're capable of doing I'm using you said pay characters here which is a you get them by holding shift in the backslash key to divide my day free my own all keywords: here but you could use anything you more really he could use you know dashes if you're you not gonna too much detail here just babies about and a lot of times I just do things by I'm not gonna get to you know crazy about this amount of space universe is this myspace here if it looks good to me visually and I have to say that that's probably good enough analysts that this line here isn't centered so we're gonna center that on a click on this line text and also hold control and click on the back earlier wanna make sure that centered do the same thing with in for the top here make sure that centered know for sure it's looking pretty good zoom out a little bit because you can overlook your card and approximately the size that's going to be printed and that's going to vary depending on how close you are to your screen and what size your screen is I'm working on a everything generally looks really really huge in after really likes him out I find that percent to percent somewhere in that range is generally if i holed a print up to the screen that's about what size it is but perceptually I think percent so good view to look at something as it's gonna create if you're working and PPI so that would be in my opinion a pretty satisfactory card if you want to change the background that's pretty easy to you you can but if he said artwork if you wanted to you or you could just throw a solid color recommend making a new layer and is calling it BG for background and you can use the pay packet to pick a color will use yellow and we ran into a wall issue here where this graphic has a white background few different ways we can get rid a weak and trembling notable apply which works really well for backgrounds away it pretty much makes the bat whole background go away as we'll see if we move the more flair here in person kind it almost looks like it's going behind the lair you get rid of that white background whereas if we put it on or more than you can see it covers everything that's one way for no usable in multiply and we can do secret trick here where we double click rate between where it says the name of the layer and thus alike on if we drag the slider here we can knock out some other background you basically just keep dragging to the background goes away so this is doing is it's essentially hiding everything that's white and you know so on up until this point so if there's a long way in your image that's gonna disappear to so you not gonna watch out for that ideally you want to use images that don't have backgrounds if you don't want the background to interfere with your layout in this case that works and if I wanted to do that with my logo to you I could do that to city centre more pliable and no have a nice yellow background for my card skip this my of back somewhere looking at it kinda close I'm seeing still some friends on here someone to go back in C&C it starts to remove the light colors if the kinda want to can also try this: trick here I'm gonna send it back to normal you can try to use them magic Wand Tool to a selection and remove the background whatever recommend doing is instead of trying to delete the pixels which you won't be able to do if you have a smart lawyer enabled here is just use a mask just click on the mask year and good and very here in your Properties panel true masks Nov you know some varying success here this doesn't work only because I put a drop shadow on my artwork so ultimately what i think im gonna do them was gonna set the blend mode to multiply because I don't think that looks cuban miss the Precor I want to change my background rather than filling again with the paint bucket tool I recommend using a live affect here color overlay if you click on the swatch here you will get some different color options for your background in the pink sky frightened pecan find something that looks good looks kinda cool click OK me ago you can see easy to change the background if we want to change the colors of our farts of course you can you know discover the swatch here when you have to on selected that you want to change selling change the color the the my name here change that way order what can be faster sometimes is again to use one of these effects here clear overlay pick something like Wat okay and if you right click on the Slayer now you can go to copy layer style and that will copy this effect that you put on the lair and you can select all the other layers that you want to make way right click on them and UK sleeve style: there you go if you wanna play to drop shadow on some others text to help it stand now double click on affects drop shadow acquitting this checkbox click on the drop shadow to change so the settings again if you want to capitalist-style by right-clicking you can do that its like the North Pole layers that you want to apply the style to right click and EP sleeve style: Mingo of course I don't like this background being orange and now the drop shadow doesn't work at all notice the color overlay so went to school and is turn off the effects for all this and put it back to normal how we had of course you will want to make a backside for your card more than likely so when I recommend doing is grouping together all your layers from your front side because you could make two separate documents but there's kinda really no reason to not just be more than after for you have to work between two documents so I've got my friend here you can duplicate it by right clicking on it and couldn't duplicate group call it back had the front where now we're looking at the back and want to go to some other stuff you like the logo on them off maybe on pat on the back where and still eats more the stuff you let's just keep I contact info just for example sick this will be a backside but you could really do whatever you want you could have a piece of artwork we could have some additional information and will want to speak a different color go and make this orange color so we can distinguish between the two so for her backside front side so now what you gonna want to do is as we were looking at earlier with their design specs this particular printing service once eight if GOP your GPS if you're working with Victor R which were not in this case because we're working in Photoshop when I can be exporting an EPS file JK would degrade the image quality a little bit and possibly change the color so we don't want to use such a pig so we're going to lift if that's the best option here used to fill our for printing IRS artwork so what you want to do is you want to hide in revealed this back in this from depending on what you want to say if gonna file and save as select if from the format I don't wanna say with layers so uncheck this box gonna call her different recommend not using spaces and using a high finish unit try to represent a space save this shoes LZW compression that'll just make the file smaller but it's not going to hurt the image quality and again make sure that there is no layers miss the settings you can just leave it there click OK and they have a file to file that you can create for the front of your card and I will do the same for the backside will head the front layer reveal the back clear go to File say about us she's the to format unchecked the layers box and will save it has card back enough we take a look at our in Asia assets folder you can see that we've got a a card back in a card front that we can upload to our website a I'm and check it to see if it will print properly you want to ensure that not have your text is getting cut off by the bleed or any of that boundary guys that they have set up for you and if they are say for instance maybe some medicine for like this info appears too close to the edge you can just move it adjusted down using a row keys on your keyboard and do the same thing with their email down here at the bottom discuss good things around to get looking the way or I'm I recommend printing a test batch of cards you know print quite a few don't order you know like two thousand cards because that there's something wrong with them maybe that the fight you chose is an readable or the colors then turn out the way you wanted to or something cut off even though you didn't think it would you know it's always good to test friends first that way if something's messed up you can fix it and when it's finally looking the way you want it to you credit wise thing you can you know and a whole bunch in I regarding farts I ninety-nine percent the time I think I just use myriad pro I'm I like san serif fonts for text that needs to be readable sensor if is the typeof found that doesn't have a bunch of fancy I'm embellishments on it like for instance Georgia if we use that see out the in Zavala these letters there's this little hooks and all these little extra little bits as they're called seraphs and they make the font possibly harder to read even though they make the font look nicer I'm some fonts you know have serious that are still readable but I for the most part feel that it's just better to have the farby is readable as possible especially if it's going to be small so I just goes something like a myriad pro you could also use for gay and there to Homer aerial me those fonts are all pretty much the same but I recommend using something really really wacky for all your texts cousin might look cool but people are going to be able to read it and people just go into your cart away if they can't read it and get me useful information on it first paper goes be careful what kind of paper you print on because if you print on colored paper or unnatural paper it might change the colors I'm some have your artwork when it blends with the paper color in yourself to watch out for those white background there's a little white background around some view image you have to watch out for that because it might end up hurting so on sometimes it's just easier just to work with a white background because at that and if you run into the issue now you know how to fix it so there you go now you can make your own business cards if you have any other questions feel free to comment on this video home because at assist you further if you
