Default Does anyone do birth announcements or the like?

I'm wondering if anyone does announcements. How do you charge? Do you print yourself (as in does your client get a hard copy of it) or do you send them the file so they do the printing themselves? If you print it for them, do you print at home, or do you send it out yourself? Thank you so much!

Hello I do birth and baby shower announcements and invitations, My ebay store is being set up as we speak but I can help you if you'd like. I do any kind from scrapbboking like, to traditonal, to modern depending onthe type you want. Picture or non-picture. I can make something for you to print or I can do all of that for you. PM me if you are interested, so I can give you some quotes or email me at cznydesigns at yahoo dot com.

I have a friend who is NOT a digi-scrapper who does birth announcements, with a simple graphic design that she does herself... she charges $40 for an original design, $25 for one from her portfolio (putting pics in, pic editing etc). That doesn't include prints. She has a printer who does if for them, and she charges actual cost there, choses not to make profit from that part.

I do cards, invitations and announcements. I charge a one time design fee and then a printing fee as well. I send them out to be printed at a professional photo lab on photo paper. I am looking into some non-photo paper printing sources right now, too.

Becca, I love your birth announcements!! I am also looking, but for commercial use. Any chance that you sell your designs for this purpose?

Aww thanks for the compliment! I greatly appreciate it! I hadn't actually thought about selling my designs as templates, but if you would like feel free to email me at designer@jeffersonallenwadedesign.com with what you are looking for etc., and we can see what can be worked out.

Thanks again hun!

I used to do this. I used WHCC.com for announcements and they were great. The price is reasonable and the quality is amazing.
