Will you be doing something special to mark the extra day?

If you have an exciting announcement or you are in need of a 'Save the Date' card - let's get your story down onto stationery so you can tell the world.

Come say hello on our website and we can discuss a design tailor-made to your needs.

Save the date

The holiday seasons are a perfect time to sort out those many photos digitally stored away and order prints of your favourite ones. In the run up to national and celebratory holidays the online photo stores are gearing up for special offers and discounts (...just recently managed to get 100 prints for just £1 plus p&p!).

If you are working on a budget for a special occasion of your own, taking advantage of these offers can help keep the print costs down... photo prints would be a great option for a 'save the date' or 'thank you' note - they can be designed in preparation for when the next offers come in.

top tips:

• Standard photo size 4"x 6" - will crop your image, you can normally preview and adjust the position in the online photo store, alternatively opt for a border to help minimise cropping or go for the 'true digital' option (4"x 5.3") to ensure your design fits.
• Try a matt finish for an understated elegance (...also helps to avoid fingermarks showing - after all your 'save the date' design will more than likely be very much treasured and shown affectionately to many visitors).
• Perfect for including a photo within your design.
• Some online photo stores give you the option to print at home - this can be a good way to test your design before committing to a big order.
• Experiment with different filters - black & white is a personal favourite as it has a real charm and nostalgic quality (...will fit with any colour scheme too).
