Seeking Advice Re: Fp-Friendly Custom Fold-Over Cards & Notepaper: Cafepress? Zazzle? Vistaprint?

[inkyelbows]

Hi all,

 

Until I fell in love with fountain pens earlier this year, I used Vistaprint for my custom greeting cards (I upload an image for the front). I recently did a test inside one of the cards I created through Vistaprint and while it wasn't as horrible as I had feared, before printing more cards for myself, I wanted to find out if anyone else had other recommendations for customized foldover cards.

 

I did comb the forums and found some posts, but these were several years old and I know there is a good chance that companies might have updated their materials/process since then.

 

Has anyone out there recently (e.g. within the past year) used Cafepress, Zazzle or Vistaprint? If so, how FP-friendly did you find their customized cards?

 

Are there any other services you could recommend? I live in Canada, so am looking for services that ship to Canada and are still affordable.

 

I'm mainly interested in foldover-type notecards in which I can upload/create my own front image but would be interested in hearing about any FP-friendly custom printing service.

 

Thanks in advance for any advice/suggestions!

 

Debbie

 

p.s. I know I could make my own cards from scratch and sometimes do, but also do cards in bulk as thank you notes, etc. Thanks!
