Who do you use to print birth announcements? - 07-02-2007, 11:59 PM


I am looking to print birth announcements on a cream heavy cardstock. Does anyone have a preferred printer you use? I usually use Mpix, but they don't have what I'm looking for.

Thanks!

Mpix does that too, but I was really looking for something to offer that has better quality. All I ever used was photo paper, but you have to give them what they want.

White House Custom Color. They do excellent work, and you can do folded cards.

I've done a lot of senior announcements with them, and they're fantastic.

WHCC also has flat cards that come with envelopes in case you want a flat. Love them :)

I know this is an old thread, but I was wondering how you worked birth announcement pricing. Do you charge what you normally would for a 4x6 or 5x7 individual print, slightly discounted for bulk or slightly more to cover the additional cost of the cards? I'm really not sure how to price these. If anyone could give their two cents it would be much appreciated.
