The Card Crate – Review + Giveaway!

shapeimage_1

This is the first I’ve found, The Card Crate is a place where you can get personalized stationery for all of your needs.  Be it, Holiday CardsBirth Announcements, Invitations, Save The Date, Thank You Cards, Graduation, Moving Announcements, and Custom Designs.
There is a card that will fit your needs AND have it personalized!

The Card Crate is super fast!  You can send in your picture, pick out your design and send it to the owner our very own Sara, she will have it back to you LEES than 24 hours and your satisfaction is their #1 priority!

I was able to review the process, which was EASY and didn’t hurt at all ;)
Then within’ 24 hours I was able to get my card in JPG format and now I am able to print from my computer or upload it to a photo site in which they can print it off for me and all I have to do is pick them up.
All custom photo cards are only $10.
YOU can print however many you want to.

Here is what she did for me.

Now see, I love this because my children are in it (of course) but Sara had mentioned that it may be a little too busy and after seeing the card she did AFTER this one I knew she knew what she was talking about, where as I didn’t and was just amazed ;)   This is my first photocard we’ve done so I really didn’t know what to expect.  But Sara is the professional here so I trusted her judgement.

Here is the second one she did that I didn’t have a part of besides the picture lol.

I now agree 100% with Sara!  I loved the newest card ALOT better!  But that doesn’t mean I am going to trash the other either lol.

Here is a little about Sara, the creator of The Card Crate.

After spending a small fortune on birth announcements and not wanting to do the same for my baby’s first Christmas card, I decided to create and print my own cards.  I soon found out that many people felt the same way!  Now for a small fee you can have beautiful custom photo cards and then print or email them at a price that suits you!

the card crate has taken me from a Stay At Home Mom to a Work At Home Mom.  Thank you for making this possible.

Our goal at the card crate is to provide you with the PERFECT photo card at a low cost.  PLEASE let me know what can be done to assure your satisfaction.

Your custom photo card will look its best if you send a .jpg file with a resolution of 300dpi or higher.  (We will let you know if the file is too small if you have no clue what this means!)  We will not take responsibility for the print quality of low resolution photos.

You can send your photo in color or black & white.   If you would like your photo changed to black & white or sepia tone, no problem (and no charge).  Just include your wishes in your initial email.  Your photo will be cropped to fit the specified area on the photo card.  Again, if you have any requests about cropping, just let us know in the email.

Also, we will not use your photo in any way, other than the intended purpose of creating your card, without your written permission.


I started my company because I wanted to give people an affordable way to
send family and friends custom photo cards like birth announcements,
holiday cards, invitations, etc.

All of our predesigned cards are $10 and are fully customizable.  What is
unique about our service (besides the cost) is that the customer prints
the cards themselves where ever they wish and in any quantity.

How it works:

1)  Customer chooses a predesigned card and fills out order form
(EVERYTHING is
customizable ~ fonts, text, # of pics, colors, etc) and upload their
picture(s) to
the form.

2) Within 24 hours we email them their completed card in a .jpg file.  If
they love it,
they can print it anywhere, if they want changes they are made at no extra
charge.

Currently we have Holiday Cards, Birth Announcements, Invitations for
birthdays, parties, baby showers, and wedding showers, Save the Dates,
Moving Announcements, Graduation Announcements, and Thank You Notes.  (All
of the cards can be used for whatever purpose the customer wishes.)

We also offer custom designs for $25, so if there is something that the
customer wants that they don’t see, we can create it!

I love how affordable her prices are, I love the outcome and the time she takes to make our card exactly how WE want it.  I love that The Card Crate also offers custom designs at a very affordable price!
I totally wish I would have known about The Card Crate after I had my last daughter, it would have saved me alot of money.
