Admit it. It's getting down to the wire, and you haven't picked out gifts for everyone, or even sent out all of your cards yet. One popular last-minute solution is to send out e-cards, and here's one way to make those cards a little more interesting. Instead of just using the canned cards available on countless sites, design your own. Don't have the time or Photoshop chops? No problem. Just use a canned template and plug in your own images, words and whatever else you need to make the card work. One good source is the scrapbook community, where designers have a wealth of templates available at prices as low as $3.00, most of which can be used both for e-cards and for printed ones — though, unless you're going to spring for FedEx or deliver your cards by hand, the latter isn't a likely scenario this year.

I enjoy photoshopping my greeting cards.. sometimes it's time consuming and the results aren't always that great, but anything beats browsing Hallmark for a suitable card. Especially during the holiday season.

Thanks! It's definitely getting last minute at this point.
