Cards with Images

I am looking to make cards with my images for some clients. I love cards from MPIX, but I need to order individually. I'd like to have the availability to add a greeting on the front or leave it blank. Also, would like to be able to add my website, etc., information somewhere (preferably the back).

Does anyone have any experience with any websites on line that make a professional cards?

Thank you!

You can buy the card stock from many sources and do it yourself on your own printer. Layout is easy, and you can say what you want, where you want.

That's undoubtedly the best solution for singles.

I use Capitol Color Imaging for things like that. They're a full service lab, by the way. The only hitch is that you have to be a pro (sounds like you are). Call Keith Hildebrand at 888/405-4488. Great people to work with, and they have really bent over backwards to get our business through the holiday rush. I told Keith this afternoon that a client came in and booked a family session tomorrow at 3:30 PM, and wanted to know if he could have the prints before Christmas. His response was, "No problem. Get them to me Wednesday evening and you'll have them Thursday morning." You can't beat service like that.

Try the Red River Paper website. They have guide lines and instructions for a bunch of different printers and papers. I have found it to be very helpful.

Don't know how "professional" these cards need to be. Try looking at the AVERY line of cardstock at your nearest Staples or Office Depot. Avery has a free (download it) program that works on Macs and PC's. Once you figure out the program, it is wonderful to use. The quality of your images and text is only determinded by your printer (and your image of course!!!!). You can add text front and back in different formats. You see this same cardstock for sale in almost any curio shop that sells people's notecards. I searched online and bought clear boxes for up to 10 cards a box and a clear folder thing that holds up to 5 cards (including the envelopes).

And if you buy some kind of "more professional" cardstock that is the same size and format as the Avery, then you can still use the Avery program.

And this same AVERY PROGRAM has tons of other printing programs built in - ALL (?) of the Avery product numbers are listed in the program for you to use with the product. Pretty powerful program for free!!!!!!

Good luck and Merry Christmas!

I've had good luck with cards from Photographers Edge. You used to be able to order a free sample but I can't find that now. Maybe I'm getting blind.
