I used version 9 forever, purchased a new pc ans the serial number is not longer valid. So I downloaded the trial version of 2026. Im not a heavy user of the software but I make cards for family and friends and I like some of the photo editing functions. So when I went to create a greeting card it gave me a number of preset options but no blank card. I did after some research find that you had to select a card then remove and and all graphic on it. It seem like a laborious task. Why is there no blank card option in create a greeting card?

    My guess is that nobody at Adobe thought to add a blank card option within PSE.  Easy peazy right?  Well anyways, hopefully Glenn 8675309’s suggestion smoothes this out for you.  Another option I read about: Red River Paper’s free downloadable blank greeting card templates for PSE right here.

    I actually took a look: they actually appear to be designed for pse which is quite remarkable.  He actually took the time to do set things up and save it as a psd.

    I did see that option and downloaded it, but the learning curve was a bit more than I wanted just to make a simple card

    You can also just make your own based upon whatever cardstock you have.


    ADOIBE EXPRESS  is probably the way to go in your case.

    There is a free, and a paid version.

    No reason to reinvent the wheel, start with a template.

    There is nothing to load:  It’s all online.
