Using Original
Artwork
While the focus of this website involves uploading images online, we wish
to share with you that we began our business with one site called
www.KidsAreStars.com, a site
featuring the artwork of children as fundraisers for children's groups and
schools. Therefore, we are accustomed to working with artwork sent
to our offices to be digitally captured and transferred to greeting cards
and stationery. So while you will most likely be uploading
photographs, we want you to keep in mind that we enjoy working with
original artwork as well, and have a great deal of experience in creating
products with original art.
We don't want you to hesitate to send us original art, either produced by
you or children in your family! As a matter of fact, you'll find
that you will have a great deal of pride in seeing original images
produced on greeting cards. The impact is strong, gratifying and
even more endearing.
So, while you consider sending photographs to us as your image
submissions, we also urge you to consider sending original artwork as
well. Know that we will use the utmost care when we work with the
artwork. And the artwork is returned in its original condition with
your order.
Here are some brief, simple
guidelines if you wish to create and send original artwork created by
yourself or children in your family or your group:
1. The material you
use can be as simple as 8-1/2 x 11 white printer paper.
2. While crayons
are good to use and readily available, felt colored markers work best in
reproduction. We do not recommend colored pencils, chalk or
pastels.
3. If you are
sending several original art pieces by different children or adults,
please turn the page over and write the individual's full name, with any
other information (age, class, group name, etc. for the back of the card)
on the back in the upper left hand corner in pencil.
We recommend that you send the artwork to us in an unbendable envelope
through a mailing or shipping method that will allow you to track your
package. Mail to the address listed below.
When you place your order online, just let us know via email or in the
"Special Instructions" box at checkout that you will be sending artwork to
us. We'll acknowledge your email and watch for your artwork to
arrive.
Upload Your
Own Text for Back of Card
If you would like to include text (personal history, family history,
vacation memory, pet history, art history, home history, you get the
picture....), use one of the 4 upload options to upload your own text for
the back of the card. We'll use the text
on the back of each card in your order.
