Crafts U Print ..........

Crafts U Print is currently the world's number 1 site for digital downloads and for that reason alone I am dedicating a full page to it.



The idea for the site is very simple - invite designers to submit their designs to the site and open an immediate marketplace for card makers who are looking to not only buy a background paper but are looking to have a whole card pre -designed for them.

All they have to do is purchase the design, download it, print it off and then follow the assembly instructions.

Now for the card making purists this must seem like sacrilege but the fact has to be faced that nowadays this is an extremely popular way of making cards. The growth of the website is proof enough of this.

The site not only provides for the ardent cardmaker and scrapbooker but is now also branching out into knitting patterns.

A lot of card designers are also posting "How To" videos - below is a sample video from one of their top designers, Ann-Marie Vaux.

After watching the video if you want to explore Crafts U Print further just click here

For a bit of light hearted fun the site also has competitions with cash prizes.

Now even if you decide that this particular method of card making is not for you the site can be used to provide you with inspiration for your own work.

Note I say inspiration and not direct copying - always be respectful of the time and effort a designer has put in to produce a product.
