As a mom with children who I love to share photos of, I always send out photo holiday cards at Christmas. Normally we head to Target and do our yearly photo shoot and pick our favorite picture out and stick on one of their templates to send out. But, this year I wanted something different. Something affordable and unique.
I had heard about card companies “going green” and using recycled materials for the card stock and ink and I thought I would love to try one out this year. So, you can imagine my joy when I was contacted by Paperspring to try out their eco-friendly cards!
Paperspring has been officially certified by the Forest Stewardship Council as a chain-of-custody provider of recycled paper made from environmentally sustainable forests. All of their matte cards are printed on 100% post-consumer waste recycled thick card stock. And they utilize chemistry-free and waterless printing processes in their operation, in order to provide the greenest forms of printing.
Paperspring provides personalized baby announcements, photo birth announcements, baby shower invitations, bridal shower invitations, birthday party invitations, thank you cards, photo holiday cards, wedding invitations and other invitations and greeting cards are the best designs on the net, expressing a style that is light, simple, modern and fresh!
They also offer amazing Digital Name Art (DNA) technology allows you to select a card design, send us your list of recipient names, and then customize each card with the recipient’s name on the front. Every Digital Name Art holiday card can have a different name on the front, or you can put your own family or company name on all the cards. You can even customize the inside message with your greeting and name to avoid signing all those cards by hand!
One of the most unique items they offer (one I had never seen before!) is called Sticky Stock. Sticks like a post-it and leaves no residue, StickyStock is an innovative way to post a beautiful full color image up. It will stick to refridgerators, cupboards, walls, windows, anything flat and dry! Use StickyStock as a business advertisement with your contact information, as an effective save-the-date card or even as a poster for your wall. There are so many uses for it and the minimum order is one!
I ordered our Holiday Cards courtesy of Paperspring and couldn’t be happier or more excited to send them out! I’m not going to show you the design I ordered just yet…that would ruin the surprise for all my holiday card recipients. But, I will say it is one of the above designs!
The order process was simple and painless and the turn-around time was about the quickest I’ve seen from any online company! The cards are a heavy, nice paper that just screams quality! They even threw in some Sticky Stock for me to try out and it’s been sticking on the wall by my computer ever since. I would definitely recommend this company to you if you’d like a change and want something eco-friendly this holiday season!
