**PLEASE READ THIS IN ITS ENTIRETY FOR ALL INFO including printing recommendations, what I need to complete your card, etc. **I custom design this card from start to finish. This is a fully customize-designed (digital file for you to print) Year in Review 5 x 7 card of your family's year-at-a-glance, anniversary year, baby's first year, birthday--whatever you want to make it! I can customize with just about any photos, icons, colors, and info you want. The design is up to you.
THIS ITEM IS LABOR INTENSIVE DUE TO IT'S CUSTOM CONTENT. That is why I charge a bit more than some Year in Review cards on etsy. I take the time to pick each icon and draw it in Illustrator and create the very special card for just YOU and/or YOUR family! With that being said, please allow UP TO 4-5 DAYS for design to be completed(but usually done in 2-3 days). After November 20th please allow 7-9 days.
IMPORTANT:
>>>I ALLOW for 1 ROUND OF REVISIONS, then I charge $2.50 for each edit after that.<<<
DECEMBER: Orders after December 5th will take at least 6-8 days to create.
**I DO NOT DESIGN FROM DECEMBER 10TH-DECEMBER 30TH DUE TO HOLIDAYS.** IF YOU HAVE A RUSH ORDER, MESSAGE ME SO I CAN HELP YOU AND DISCUSS.**
WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW
----------------------------------------
You did it! You found the perfect card! Now what? Follow these steps to take this digital design from your computer screen to your mailbox:
1. Add this digital design to your cart and check-out.
2. During check-out, in "Notes to Seller" include your custom wording (including names!) and color requests.
3. Next, send your photos(if you are using photos) to me in an Etsy convo. Please make sure to send high resolution images (minimum 300 dpi) or the images will look blurry when printed.
4. You will receive a digital proof of your card through the Etsy Message System. This also includes 1 ROUND of up to 5 edits/changes (5 different things changed) after I submit the first proof to you. 2nd round of edits are an additional $2.50 for each edit, due to time.
5. Review your proof to let me know if changes are needed, or if you are happy with it. I am committed to working with you to make sure your card is perfect!
6. Once you have approved the final design, I will send your file, print-ready files for YOU TO PRINT. I DO NOT PRINT. Other file formats are available upon request, (PDF, png, tif, eps, jpg etc.). These files can be printed by any photo printer or print shop of your choice (See my Printing Recommendations below). You can also print from home on card stock.
That’s all there is to it!
PRINTING RECOMMENDATIONS
-----------------------------------------------
You have so many options when it comes to printing your invitations. Here are a few words of wisdom…
1. There are two steps to producing these invitations. Step 1: print them. Step 2: cut them out.
Printing at home is your most affordable option. If you choose this option, be sure to print on the heaviest weight card stock allowed by your printer. The quality of paper you use seriously impacts the final product.
2. Online printing is my favorite way to go because of the quality (print quality + high quality paper = amazing final product). Plus they print and cut it out all at once and all you have to do is stuff them into envelopes! But this option will take time. Allow 2 weeks for your online printing order to go from “order placed” to “in your hands”.
3. My 3 favorite online printers are**:
• GotPrint.com - Best price and quality for quantities of 100 or more
• OverNightPrints.com are WONDERFUL quality and prices, however they do take about 5 days to a week to deliver to you, and longer in December.
• Costco - Their NEW premium Stationary Greeting Cards are wonderful! Best price and quality for quantities under 100
**I am in no way affiliated with OverNightPrints.com, GotPrint.com or Costco.
If you purchase it is your duty to get me your information in a timely manner. If you don't send your info or contact me within 3 weeks after purchase, I cannot refund your money unless we've arranged something in advance. Thank you for your understanding.
