Christmas is just around the corner, and we know how important it is to celebrate the moment. While gifts are similarly important, it's also time to think of the warmest greetings on your Christmas greeting card.
But instead of your usual greeting card, you can actually give a twist with the help of augmented reality (AR). That said, you can make your Christmas card lively and brought to life.
Now your next question will probably be whether it's possible to create your own AR Christmas card. And the answer is—YES, you can actually make it all by yourself with Assemblr Studio!
Be it from scratch or using the premade AR Christmas templates, you can make use of the platform to add the AR experience to your greeting card.
First off, we recommend you start with the design of your greeting card.
Sometimes, DIY stuff leaves a special place on your receivers. And this is also no exception for your greeting cards. You can start by making your own design with your favorite design platforms.
If you know how to design, you can use Adobe Illustrator or Photoshop to do so. But nowadays, platforms like Canva also offer beginners a very easy way to design.
You can simply use the available templates, or you can also create your own with the available elements and assets.
So in the end, you pick your own choice. Simply choose the one that makes you comfortable the most!
After that, don't forget to save the greeting card in .jpeg or .png format. Now that you've got the design, let's move on to the next fun step—which is creating the AR content for your Christmas card.
1. Open Assemblr Studio, then choose Create Your Creation.
2. Click Browse from Template.
3. Choose which template you want to use. If you want it to be quick, you can simply use the search icon on the top right and enter the specific keyword (e.g. Christmas).
