Announcements Galore

announcements galore reviewMy baby is now three months and I am just getting around to sending out thank you cards. We received so many fabulous gifts, I just haven’t gotten around to the thank you cards yet. It’ tough to find time with four little ones. Besides the lack of time, I have a hard time with thank you cards, my hand usually goes numb before I’m finished writing all of them. That is one of the many reasons I was thrilled to order my cards online this time.

Announcements Galore offers a huge selection of themes and designs for you to create your own personalized photo card. They are beautiful ~ like a little 4×6 scrapbook page. I would have loved to do a birth announcement, but thought I may have missed the boat on that one, and opted for a Thank You card instead. The process was so simple. I sent in a picture of my darling Aisha, chose the wording for the card, approved the proof, and voila! It’s that easy. A short while later, the small package of 20 cards arrived in my mailbox and I am sending them out as soon as I finish typing this. I’ll be sure to keep one for Aisha’s baby box though, it will make a great keepsake.

The online shop for Announcements Galore is very user-friendly. I really enjoyed looking at all the different designs, fonts, and colors to choose from. The customer service I received was great, and the prices are fantastic too! The price is definitely right for such a professional looking photo card. - Andrea

Win it! We’re giving away a $30 gift certificate to Announcements Galore. To enter, leave a comment on this post telling us what specific item(s) you’d spend it on! Contest closes on May 10/08.
