Did anyone make their own Thank You cards?

A friend of mine mentioned that she bought monogrammed stationary and then stuck her TY pic in their and used that as her thankyou card. I thought it would be cute to do something crafty and different. Anyone have any ideas they can share?

I'm making mine from Shutterfly.com...really inexpensive and you can design/edit them yourself.

Re: Did anyone make their own Thank You cards?

Myasmom - wow, I didn't realize you could make cards on shutterfly. Can you fm me how you did that?

I get 75 wallet sized photos from my photography package but I didn't realize when I booked that that did NOT include the cards to put them in. I was thinking I can opt out of that, get a few extra photos in my album (cause I am sure I can't get my money BACK) and then try to make my own cards.... is it a difficult task? Or just time-consuming?

Re: Did anyone make their own Thank You cards?

Laurapete..u have FM.


rrdm782004..I got the monogramed cards designed by a lady online from thedesignersden. I am pretty crafty so I am going to make the inserts and include the card with an inscription of somesort.

I have microsoft publisher and various photo software on the computer so I actually designed another card with four photos for the family. Its not hard..just have to find reputable companies to do it.

Shutterfly is only as good as the picture quality u provide. I didnt use them but have ordered prints.

Re: Did anyone make their own Thank You cards?

sorry- i just saw your post....publisher is microsoft publisher ( i used a combo of our digitsl proofs and set it up with our name and date)...the company we used to print them was cardnotes.com. the quality was great, customer service was wonderful and they came pretty fast!

Re: Did anyone make their own Thank You cards?

WOW! I LOVE it! What size is that card? Please FM me the details, I would love to try to make them... this way I don't have to make a decision about which pic to use for the thank you - I can pick a bunch : )

hmm,, one problem i see is that i don't have any digital proofs - Perceptions doesn't do that yet (well at least not at the time I booked). Maybe I can have them do it for a few pics....

Re: Did anyone make their own Thank You cards?

After seeing the options recently from our photographer for slip in cards, I think that my DH and I will be designing our own cards. I'll keep you all posted with our design.
