Here’s a list of 4 greeting card software for Windows 10 which you can use to create specialized greeting cards for your loved ones. Friends, family, your significant other, clients, will all enjoy cards with a personal touch to them. Creating a customized eCard is very easy with the applications from the list down below. Most of the time you get editable templates for all the usual occasions like birthdays, anniversaries, weddings, retirements, etc.
Let’s have a look at what kind of software is available exactly.
Kigo Photo Card Maker
Kigo Photo Card Maker is a well-rounded greeting card software for Windows 10, which can be used to quickly setup greeting cards using templates. There are templates that are available for every major occasion. They are divided up into categories and can be accessed from the “Template” button in the top right corner.
Once that you’ve selected a template it’s possible to tweak the template with images, different colors and of course text. That way you can send your own personal message to the person for whom the card is intended. When everything is setup, click on the “Save” button to export the greeting card. They can be saved as JPEG, PNG and BMP image, and from that point on sent via email or printed and sent through the mail, the old fashioned way.
Personal eCards – free greeting card software for Windows 10
Personal eCards is another greeting card software for Windows 10 which is very easy to use. This is made possible yet again by templates, as you can see from the image above. Templates are grouped in categories according to the occasion. There are cards for anniversaries, vacations, birthdays, childbirth, holidays and thank yous.
Setting up the greeting card is a two step process. First one can be seen on the image above. That’s where the template is selected, while the second step is where tweaks to the selected template are made. You can add different titles, message text and images. Images are added to the greeting cards using drag and drop. Finished eCards can be saved as JPG images and shared the usual ways, email, social networks, or by printing the image up and using actual mail, just like in Kigo Photo Card Maker.

Ecard Magic
Now for something completely different. Ecard Magic is a greeting card software for Windows 10 which creates actual digital greeting cards, as standalone EXE applications. Because the end product of Ecard Magic is an actual standalone application, there is an added bonus of adding actual interactivity into the mix.
What I’m talking about is the fact that you can add things like recorded audio, next to images and text, to the greeting cards that you create using Ecard Magic. Card setup is done by going through each of the 7 tabs at the bottom of the application window. First you choose cover pictures, then card background music, greeting background, record an audio clip with a personal message, add contact info, build the card (create the executable) and lastly send it to everyone that needs to receive the greeting card. Card can be sent to multiple people using the built-in email sender. Important thing to note is that the application requires you to pick up a free username and registration key from the website in order to activate it and remove watermarks from the created eCards.

Photo Pos Pro
This last greeting card software I included for all those that are a bit more comfortable using image editors. Photo Pos Pro is a not a specialized photo card creator software, but rather an image editor that comes with a library of presets that can be used as greeting card templates.
Built-in templates are not entirely aimed at being greeting card templates, but can be used as that. Application makes up for this by allowing you to download additional templates from the web. You just need to select “File >> New >> From template” and there select “Get more”. As far as the toolbox goes, the usual is available, pen, brush, shapes, text tool, etc. Created greeting card can be saved using all the common image formats. Interface is a bit overwhelming, similar to the more advanced image editors, but it’s not too horrific.

Conclusion
First two greeting card software for Windows 10 from the list above, Kigo Photo Card Maker and Personal eCards are great. They are easy to use, have great selection of templates and lots of customizing can be done to the greeting cards. Ecard Magic is great, but there are quite a bit of options for tweaking, which might be a bit confusing for those who aren’t tech savvy. Plus greeting cards that it creates are executables. Sending these types of files to people might make them think it’s a virus, so they won’t open them. Photo Pos Pro is a great, but like its name suggest, its more oriented towards the pros. Templates that it has make things easier on you a bit, but there’s still quite a learning curve to it. Let me know what you think in the comment section down below.
