It was my cousin’s 30th birthday over the Christmas holidays and because it’s a special birthday (and she’s completely great) I made her a card.

I don’t normally like using applications like this (I usually find it easy to do things myself in Flash or Photoshop), but Comic Life is fantastic at doing this kind of thing. The interface is great, it’s a complete dream to use and the built in filters aren’t massively different than some of the expensive Photoshop ones.

• Ahhaaa - someone else has got themselves a mac then! I got my first about a week ago and found Comic Life installed but I haven’t had a play with it yet. Looks like fun though!

• Hmm, the text is too small for me to read. Looking at the name of the image: cardcombinedsmall.jpg, I guessed there might be a cardcombined.jpg or cardcombinedlarge.jpg but I seem to be wrong. Is a larger version online?
