Default where to get pages printed?

Hi I am just starting to do digital scrapbooking and I would like to print my 12x12 pages and add them to my book.

Just curious where the best places are to print.

Thanks!

Lately the girls around here have been raving about the quality of scrappingsimply.com. And they arehaving /just have had a sale. See this thread http://www.designerdigitals.com/digi...mply-sale.html

I print into books with shutterfly so I havent used them.

I have used Scrapbooks to Share (sbtoshare.com) and was very pleased, and I've used recently Persnickety Prints (persnicketyprints.com) for photo prints, and they were gorgeous.

There are many printers out there who do great jobs for competitive prices. It might come down to your budget and shipping costs.

I have used ScrappingSimply for 12x12 pages and loved them, just bought a prepaid plan during their recent sale to get more pages printed. I have also used Persnickety Prints for 4x6, 5x7, and 8x10 (got the 8x10 mounted on foam board) and the prints are great ... ones that were too dark at Shutterfly were lighter at Persnickety which is how I saw them on screen.

I've only ever used Costco.com and so far I like the quality.

I'm one of those crazy people who get the same print done at a number of different places. I ordered both a 12 x 12 and an 8 x8. What I have found is that Scrapping Simply and Persnickety are the only 2 places I will print. If I had to choose between the 2 I would go with Persnickety for 3 reasons.
1. Their colors are more true to what I see on my computer.
2. The journaling from Persnickety is clear while the ones from Scrapping Simply had a touch of grunge around the edge. (Although, honestly, if you weren't comparing layouts side by side, I doubt that you'd be able to tell.)
3. The 8x8's from Scrapping Simply were considerably darker than their 12 x 12 counterparts. Persnickety's prints were identical in color for both sizes.

HTH (This was a personal review and I received no compensation for it, )

I have a delivery of over 200 layouts coming from Scrapping Simply and I will tell you that the on-line service was fantastic and so easy. I think they are very affordable compared to other sites that I have checked out! I hope you'll find the right place for you and enjoy your pages for many many years to come!!!
