You'll be amazed how easy and fun it is to experiment with different looks.

QR Codes delight.

Edit individual card faces.

You can view and individually edit the faces of double-sided, folding, and tent cards. When editing folding and tent cards, you'll see fold lines and you can choose to edit individual faces or entire sides at once, so you can place content across the fold lines.

Photo Analyzer screenshot.
NEW! The amazing Photo Analyzer.

Select any photo on your design and then press a special button to see the dominant colors in the photo. You can then create a color scheme based on these colors.

NEW! Create designer-worthy color schemes.

Use the built-in color wheel to discover color combinations based on the same color theory that artists use. To make your color exploration more fun, the color wheel spins when you select a new base color and offers educational tips.

NEW! Perfect blends between colors.

Eyedropper tool screenshot.
NEW! Grab the color of any pixel.

Use the eyedropper tool to quickly and easily retrieve the color of any pixel on your screen — a convenient way to create color schemes from artwork or source material already on your design.

NEW! Warm vs cool colors.

Warm versus cool refers to the psychological impact colors have in conveying a message. Warm colors are frequently associated with the warm of fire and the sun while cool colors are frequently associated with the coolness of the sea, sky, and foliage. The warm/cool indicator divides the color wheel into warm and cool colors, so you correctly convey the messaging you want.

Smart shapes examples.
Flexible smart shapes.

Create custom design elements with the 50+ Smart-Shapes built into the software. Control every aspect of a shape including stroke color, fill color, stroke style, stroke size, and opacity. Where appropriate, certain shapes include controls to customize attributes unique to the shape. For example, you can specify the number of points on a star and the height of the points.

Design with layers.

Put related items on their own layer to simplify working with lots of objects. Doing so enables you to show and hide just the layers you want.

Reflection example.
Reflection perfection.

You can easily add a reflection to any graphic, shape, or text box and the reflection is completely customizable. For example, you can control the transparency, height, and offsets of the reflection to get the exact effect you’re after.

Text magic.

Text is magical in iScrapbook: bend it along a curve, spiral it to tell a story, fill it with an image, outline it, or stretch it. It's fun and easy!

Styled text examples.
A FREE and amazing collection of artwork!

In order to create amazing cards, you need amazing artwork. Business Card Shop won't let you down. It comes with a collection valued at $120 if purchased directly from the iScrapbook store. The artwork was created by artists from all over the world and is it not the "cheesey" variety of clipart normally included with software products. It's over 1.8 GB in size. It includes over 980 graphics and all are 300 d.p.i. which is ideal for printing.
