Shutterfly Holiday Cards – Products Worth Reviewing and Giveaway

Although the “official” day of holiday shopping hasn’t begun yet, it’s never too early to start planning for it though. And when it comes to holidays, I usually like to start with the greeting cards first. This way, I know that if I end up forgetting someone on the list, they’ll at least have gotten a Holiday Cards from me. And one of my most favorite places to design and build my holiday cards is Shutterfly.

I’ve been a longtime user of Shutterfly and their high quality prints and photo gifts are far superior than the other competitive brands. Why do I say that so blatantly? Because I’ve compared Shutterfly’s products with other online photo companies and Shutterfly’s exceptional quality really beats out most other brands. I don’t know how they do it – perhaps they take more care in making the prints for their consumers, I don’t know. But if you’ve ever purchased prints from Shutterfly’s website directly, you’ll probably know what I mean. Shutterfly’s superior quality and customer service has made themselves into a common household name. And although their pricing is extremely competitive, they also offer great discounts throughout the year.

Shutterfly’s exceptional quality prints, photo books, and photo gifts are easy to use and fun to keep and give as gifts. They have a wonderful selection of photo products that’s suitable for almost every occassion. Their products range from traditional photo prints, photo books in several sizes, photo cards and stationery, calendars, photo gifts such as mugs and mousepads, and home decor such as canvas prints, throws, wall decals. And their prices are pretty decent for the high quality that you’ll receive. And for each occassion and holiday, they also have coordinating products that matches beautifully. They are also currently offering great deals on their special offers page: http://www.shutterfly.com/special-offers.

Shutterfly is also sister companies with Tiny Prints, Treat, and Wedding Paper Divas. All of their sites offer unique, one-of-a-kind gifts and projects for any occassion and any reason. And right now they have an extensive selection of holiday cards and gifts to start your holiday planning. And if you are a first time user of their account, you’ll also receive 50 4×6 prints for free as a sign up offer. However, as an official Shutterfly blogger, I was given the opportunity to review their holiday cards and Shutterfly is also giving 1 LUCKY reader of Happymomblogger the opportunity to try their online prints.

Shutterfly Yearbook – A New Way to Capture Memories

What do you do when you have a popular kid at school who has way too many friends and can’t get her off the phone even to say “hello”? Well, being popular can be a good thing and even if they’re not the most popular kid at school, your children still has friends and teachers that they’d like to remember as they get older, right? You can take a lot of pictures and stick them in a photo album, but honestly, who has the time nowadays? As a busy parent, you probably barely have time to upload your photos onto your computer let alone printing them out on your own or ordering them online. But keeping photo memories is important for many people and for teenagers, photos of their favorite things at school will probably bring a smile or an amusing frown years down the line. One way to preserve those school-year memories is a traditional photobook, but this year, Shutterfly has come out with something entirely different, and extremely new and fun.

Shutterfly Yearbook : http://www.shutterfly.com/yearbook/ is a new way to add more excitement and meaning to your childrens memories. Whether your child is the most popular kid in school,  the best artist, the class clown, the best musician, or even the best student in school, it’s always great to capture events and memories in your child’s life so he can reminisce with his own kids when he’s older. Schools have been making yearbooks for as long as I can remember and instead of the traditional, boring yearbooks that you’re so used to, you might want to try something new this school year. Something that you can create on your own, with whatever template, whatever colors, and whatever photos that suits your liking. And when you’ve got something that’s entirely different, your kids will be grateful (for once) and may even thank you for it.

 

Shutterfly has been helping people create memories through prints, photobooks, calendars, cards, magnets, and even photo blankets – you name it, Shutterfly can do it for you. We’ve been using Shuttefly for many years whether it’s ordering traditional photo prints, making invitations, and creating photobooks, we’ve come to trust Shutterfly’s superior quality and renowned customer service to get the creative juices flowing. In fact, the quality of their prints is so exceptional, that I honestly can’t find anyone else to do a better job. Well, I probably can, but it would cost way too much to even try. Shutterfly is like having your own professional photo processor living in your computer. You don’t have to be a professional photographer. You don’t even have to be a great photographer. You just have to want a reason to preserve your photo memories for yourself and your family and friends and even impress a few people with the high quality craftsmanship that’s synonymous with Shutterfly’s name. And with their newest photo yearbook offered on their site, you’ve got something new and interesting to try with Shutterfly. But your creativity doesn’t have to stop there. Shutterfly’s photo yearbook can also be used for a sports team, a non-profit organization, or for anything where you want to create something extra unique and special.

This year, I’m definitely going to tell my siblings about Shutterfly’s new photo yearbook. They all have teenagers so I’m sure they’d love to give it a try. If you’re interested in creating a photo yearbook for your childrens school, you can order just one or even for the entire school. Shutterfly is offering an incredible discount if you’re ordering in bulk, so why not give the new Shutterfly photo yearbooks a try?
