Apple's new Cards app is going to have to step up its game as other players get into the field of turning iOS snaps into real print cards and postcards. Enter Frametastic. Pick your frame styles, populate it with pics from your camera roll, and you're set. Not a fan of print? No problem, just share it wherever you roll socially. And since it's currently free, we dont' see any reason not to start making cards for the holidays.
