Kreeting Kard is available in the repositories. When you search for it in your distribution’s repositories, look for kreetingkard and kreetingkard-templates. Installing it with your Linux distribution’s package manager should be a breeze.

Once you have it installed, you could now begin using it. When you’re using Kreeting Kard, you need to choose a template first before you could do anything. If you don’t have a template you can’t make any card. When you select a card in the “Templates” section, you get into the “Designer” section already. If you have a picture you want to use, you could insert it into the card in this mode. For those who will make postcards, make sure you have selected the side where you want to put your picture. You just need to click on the icon with the mountains. That’s what you need to trigger the dialog for inserting images. You could also add text. The icon with the letters a and b is the one you need for that. Of course it will be best to install fonts first for an awesome text.

In Kreeting Kard, you could already store the names and addresses of the people who will be the recipients of your greetings. There’s an address book function that’s built in.

Personally, this application could be useful for those times that I just want a quick postcard or two. But I think that it’s still lacking in terms of templates which are available for users. Another issue I have when it comes to using this is that the application doesn’t seem to have a way to import addresses from your mail client. I think that would have been a more practical approach. In any case, it’s still useful but of course, you may also want to check out other options. This application doesn’t really give me a one-stop solution yet but who knows what its developers will do someday.
