It’s that time of year! Whether you booked a family photo session or you had a friend take your family’s photo at your most recent family outing…where to print your yearly Christmas cards?
Here are a couple of my favorite places to go to when it’s time to start looking for a Christmas card template.
1. Your Online Gallery
If you booked a family session with me this year, you have the option to order Christmas cards straight from your online gallery! This is a new this year and something I’m really excited about. It’s a super convenient option for families I’ve worked with this year to order Christmas cards.
2.. Nations Photo Lab
This has been one one of my favorite places to order our announcements. I have found their templates to really match my personal style and preference. I love their prices and their designs.
3. Etsy
Etsy?! Yes! There are a lot of small business owners or graphic designers that design beautiful templates you can purchase and download. I like this option whenever possible because I like to support small business owners for things like this. I like knowing that my purchase makes someone on the other end do a little happy dance. (Trust me…I know!)
One thing to keep in mind before purchasing your template is how much printing costs at your local Staples or Office Depot. Buying a Christmas template off of Etsy may not be as quick or convenient as your other options but it is still a great option. It may just require a little more research to find out what type of paper you would be printing on and double checking your online proof is important. Also make sure you look at which editing programs are needed (if any) after purchase.
4. Mpix.com
Mpix is one of my favorite printers. I personally have used them for prints, baby announcements, and Christmas cards. There are many options to look through and I find their prices to be very reasonable. One thing to keep in mind when looking at pricing is to look at price per card in your quantity range. Price per card changes depending on how many you are printing.
5. Mixbook.com
Mixbook has some fun template designs and I found them to be well priced. They also seem to have really good sales and deals around the holidays. .
Mixbook.com
At the time I am writing this post they currently have a deal for 50% off cards if you purchase 25+
6. Minted.com
Minted is one of my absolute favorite places to look for any kind of holiday, graduation, baby, or announcement card. They always have more unique designs and styles for their cards. Minted does a great job of sourcing and featuring designers and I’ve always loved their work. Because of this they do tend to be on the pricier side but their quality is incredible.
There are so many other places to use when looking for Christmas Cards these are just my top places I go back to every year. I’d love to hear where you order your cards from and which places have been your favorite!
