Tiny Prints

One of my favorite finds is Tiny Prints. I've used them for birth announcements, stationary for myself and the kiddos, and invitations! I recently received an invitation printed on Tiny Prints paper and was reminded of how much I love it.

I loved Patrick's announcements. They were perfect for our Big Sister, Little Brother arrival. Helen's announcement was precious too. It featured a sketch of a little girl and a golden-retriever-esque dog, which we imagined represented Chase.
The choices are endless and all equally precious. You can easily upload photos from SmugMug, Flickr, or Picasa. The customer service is excellent, prices reasonable, the products ship relatively quickly, and you can format and preview your product online before ordering. They also offer a Live Chat feature and free sample shipments. So its very easy to create the perfect card! Many of the announcements and invitations have coordinating thank you cards, which I always end up purchasing!
My favorite feature is the pre-shipment of envelopes. Before Patrick was born and I found myself much more organized, I selected his announcements and had the envelopes pre-shipped. I addressed and stamped all of the birth announcements before he even arrived! After he was born and we had all of his "stats" (i.e. weight, height, birthday, etc.) I went back to http://www.tinyprints.com/ and completed the order. When the announcements arrived, it was easy to throw them in envelopes and get them out quickly after Patrick's birth.
Tiny Prints always have great promotions (especially if you subscribe to the site...if you subscribe, you'll get 15% off your next order). Right now they are offering free ground shipping on orders over $49 with code HOLIDAYSHIP49 and 2 free sets of address labels when you spend $75 with code GIFTFORYOU. With such cute products and such great deals, there's no reason not to send Christmas cards this year!

These are really cute birth announcements cards but I found three websites that have lots of unique photo birth announcements, personalized baby announcements and custom birth announcements at:

http://www.cardsshoppe.com/birth-announcements/
http://www.cards-411.com
http://www.birth-cards.com

I have ordered from all three for my pregnancy, baby shower and birth announcements and been very pleased. Take and look and see what you think.
