Hi
Mom!!
Wouldn't you
simply LOVE to be able to share the artwork and photos of your children as
illustrations for Note
Cards and Stationery?
 Welcome to
ProudMomGreetings.com
We understand the excitement a child
feels when they see their artwork or photos presented in professionally
printed note cards and stationery. And we understand how exciting it
will be for YOU to see your own children's artwork and photos represented
as well.
So, why ProudMomGreetings.com?
And why use us?
Yes, we know that
there are LOTS of websites out there where you can download your own
greeting card template, and produce the "cards" yourself. I guess
you could do this if you don't mind printing one card at a time, if you
have a good printer, and then you don't mind the look of a folded sheet of
paper in quarters.
And we also know you can order your own custom cards online at other
websites... and pay as much as $2.95 EACH!! Certainly, the price
will drop on these sites when you order volume.... but on one site we
visited, you'd have to order 200 of one single card (without envelopes!)
to order them as inexpensively as we can offer them. And our card
sets (always) come boxed. (Boxes are not included on the other
websites.)
Yes, but what about
quality?
At ProudMomGreetings.com, we have taken advantage of today's great
opportunities in the development of printing technology. We own some
of the finest image printing equipment available that simultaneously
allows us to print as few or as many cards as you order! We also
combine this equipment with an extremely conscientious and meticulous
editing and design staff, and you have the best of all worlds. The
final product is printed on some of the finest card stock available in the
market today. And the result is a product you can be proud of.... to
use yourself, and to give away to the important people in your life.
Is is complicated?
Nope. It's really quite simple.
So simple in fact that we have one single page online to place your order,
upload your images (if you choose to... or you can mail them to us), and
make payment. All in one place.
Take a look at our simple
ordering guidelines

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 (family history, a dedication, a story from your child's life, etc.),
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.

We're excited you've found us!
We urge you to take advantage of
this opportunity
to enhance the self-esteem of your child,
while touching the hearts of those near and dear to you.
These Note Cards &
Greeting Cards become treasures for years to come! Please feel free to contact us if you
have any questions.
