I got an early Christmas present as the "Family Famine: Hunger for Love" postcards arrived today!
I expected the postcards to arrive December 31st so I could take care of labels and have things sent out January 2nd. PrintsMadeEasy.com is closed on Saturdays and Sundays plus the U.S. Postal Service is off a couple days during the holiday season. I must have barely placed the order online to make the December 24th date.
When the doorbell rang and the box was placed on the doorstep, I was so taken aback that I wondered what could be inside the box.
That was only for a moment.
Then I could not open the box fast enough. I squealed like a little girl, a now 29-year-old girl.
When I pulled out the cards, I was impressed. . .except that the light blue background coloring was more purple than light blue. This made some headings harder to read. I made a note to check the printing color for the posters to have the light blue. Since most people would look close a
t the postcard anyway, then the readability was good enough.With PrintsMadeEasy.com, I could have opted (for a fee) to have a hard-copy sent to me so I could authorize the coloring. I was more interested in speed. With that choice came consequences.
My friends and family assured me that the postcards did look great.
Nevertheless, the next time I print postcards, or anything else that involves color, I will check the printing.
The trick will be to order them early enough to speed is not as important as the overall quality.
Until we tell again,
