How it works

  1. Upload your photo

    Upload a sharp photo of the vehicle from a clear angle. Natural daylight and minimal reflections help the AI handle holiday card accurately. JPG, PNG, WebP up to 7MB.

    Expect: Simple border and text addition: 30-40 seconds. Complex themed transformations with snow or decorations: 45-60 seconds.
  2. Describe the holiday card you want

    Type your instruction: 'make this a Christmas card with a red and green festive border, snowflake decorations, and add HAPPY HOLIDAYS in elegant gold text at the bottom' or 'create a New Year card with sparkly gold border and CHEERS TO 2026 text.' Be specific about colors, decorations, and your custom greeting text. No marking needed.

    Tip: Include your family name in the greeting: 'MERRY CHRISTMAS FROM THE JOHNSONS' makes it personal and print-ready.

    Copy one of these to get started:

  3. Review the card design

    Check that the border doesn't cover faces, the greeting text is spelled correctly and readable, and the overall design feels festive. Zoom in to make sure decorative elements blend naturally with your photo.
