Where to print 12x12 pages

[tdickerson]

My friend has recently converted to digital and instead of photo books, she wants to have print them individually. Does anyone have any suggestions on the most affordable place to do this? Thanks!

Someone on here had recommended Scrapping Simply (Welcome to Scrappingsimply.com). I used them and was very happy! Then on this board someone also mentioned Persnickety Prints (12x12 prints) who just recently had their grand opening. I just placed a rather large order with them. It's ready for me to pick up (they ship too, but I just live close to where I can pick them up!), and I will let you know what I think as soon as I get my prints. I'm hoping to pick them up tomorrow, but who knows how the day will go!

I have used MyPicTales and been very satisfied with the results. .50/page for 8X8 &10X10. I believe 12x12 are $1/pg. If I remember correctly, shipping was a little high but I wait until I have a bunch before ordering.

I use Costco but she needs a membership to the wholesale club to get them. I've heard a lot of good reviews about Scrapping Simply. Have her at least sign up with them. I think they offer good sales from time to time.

I ordered my first prints from simplyscrapping.com in December and was very, very pleased with the results. As someone else mentioned, Persnickety Prints.com had a grand opening this last weekend and a great sale of 25% off. I ordered another ~60 pages that I had done since December. Getting my prints in December was just the mojo boost that I needed! If they turn out just as well (and I believe they will) then I'll just stay signed up for both newsletters and take advantage of sales when possible.

That was my thinking as well. I had my big order ready to go to scrapping simply and got the email for the 25% off sale at persnickety, so I went with them! I can't wait to see all my newly printed pages!

I can't wait to hear how you like them, because I ordered a bunch of pages myself. The offer was too good to pass up and shipping was free too! Mine are on the way....

I also ordered from both companies during their sales. I got an email yesterday that my scrappingsimply order has shipped. Can't wait for them to arrive, as one of my goals this year is to get the hundreds of layouts that I've done printed.

I have to put in a word for Heritage Makers, also. Their work is wonderful, but they're pretty pricey -- about double what the others are. The paper quality is top notch, but I can't afford those prices for all my pages. If money is no object, though . . .

I just received my pages from persnickety and I am very happy with the quality. I printed 8x8 for the first time and it really is nice. It seems kind of small after looking at my 12x12 pages, but I love them!! I will definitely use them again, shipping is very reasonable and incredibly speedy. I ordered on Monday and received them today!

I'm a ScrappingSimply fan. There's also a little company called ScrapbooksPlease that I use occasionally. Both do lovely work. I always tell whoever prints my pages NOT to change the color in any way.

do they usually darken pages a little Phylis? I have noticed that no matter who I use, the photos seem a little darker. I have use ScrapbookPlease too and have been very pleased with them also.

I just went to the Scrapping Simply website and noticed that they prefer your file to be in RGB. I make all of mine in sRGB. Does that matter? Has anyone had their sRGB files printed by them and liked the results?

One other question, I guess all of those sales are over? I thought someone was having a sale for the month of February. But I can't remember who.

I recently ordered from ScrapbookPictures.com for the first time; they have a sale (still) on. I have previously gotten prints through Costco and been very happy, but the sale price at ScrapbookPictures won me over. I'm very happy with the prints, which came quickly and look great. Their 12 x 12 price is currently $1.49 and 8 x 8 (which is what I order) $0.89.
