We have been asked on a number of occasions to produce Save The Date Cards with a Ganesha image on, but have had problems finding a suitable one for hot foil printing. At last we have one that looks just right. This version of Ganesha will print well and look good in gold on a gold card. Options would be to use black, silver or holoprint ink colours, possibly even a black, white or frosted card as an effective background. Whatever your choice of colour combinations we can produce a photo realistic proof to give you an idea of hbow the printed cards will look.

I hope all our customers are enjoying the good weather we have been having recently. Today has been very humid though I wish it would thunder to freshen the air! Now is getting to the time to order Save The Date Cards to go in with your Christmas Cards. Christmas already? but everything has to be planned if it is to run smoothly. Here at Save The Date Cards we get very busy before Christmas and so do Royal Mail so it is better to order your Save The Date Cards sooner rather than later.  Don’t forget our holoprint ink looks really special and is really worth it for just £5 extra.

British Summertime is here and Save The Date Cards are being produced for couples around the UK who are just starting to plan their Weddings. Most of the cards we produce are for Weddings approximately 12 months away, but we do have some for the following year. Only once have we done one for three years ahead. Now that is real forward planning.

Parties and special occasions usually seem to be around six months in advance.

Whatever your event is that requires advance notice, contact us at sales@savethedatecards.co.uk and we will help you to produce that one off memorable reminder for you to send out to friends and family. If you want something unusual, just ask and we will try our best to produce it for you.

Summer time is with us now, with it’s usual mix of sunny days and showers.

Gardens are bright with coloured flowers of all hues.

What better way to show a photo of some sample cards. The frosted cards can be seen as they should be with a good background, and the satin black card show’s it’s simple richness against the bright orange of the Calendulas.

Sometimes it’s good to view things in a different light.

Our cards can be changed to provide just the impression you are looking for.

Different words, add a website or email address, different font or grahics.

Contact sales@savethedatecards.co.uk and see what we can do for you.

We are finally moving into the twenty first century by setting up a Facebook page.

Ok, so we’re a bit later than most people, but we don’t tend to rush into these things. A little planning never goes amiss, especially with your card designs. The standard templates on our website took some thinking about … in fact, so much thinking we never completed the last three. Sometimes it’s good to be a little enigmatic … it never did the Mona Lisa and harm!

If you see an example on our website where you’d like to swap and change images or text, just ask by emailing sales@savethedatecards.co.uk

All our Save The Date Card designs look even better when printed using Holoprint foil. The text looks silver when viewed straight on,but reflects all the colours of the rainbow when angled to the light. This effect if more pronounced in sunlight or under bright lighting. The light you see reflected off a CD gives a similar appearance. Once you have chosen a design and personalised it with your own choice of words, the addition of Holoprint text can bring the card to life, making it sparkle and be even more memorable. We only charge an additional £5 per order for using holoprint and we suggest it is a worthwhile option to take.

Save The Date Cards for Civil Partnerships can be produced by us to suit your theme and to reflect your event.

The example on our website was designed for a Black and White Ball.

As you will see, the same design looks quite different when black is printed onto a white card, compared to white printed onto a black card.

Which you prefer is a matter for choice, but the pictures demonstrate how different colours alter the impact of the card to match your own views.

Have a look at the examples on our websire www.savethedatecards.co.uk or simple email sales@savethedatecards.co.uk and we’ll see if we can produce a unique design to complement your event.

We can also produce effective Change of address cards, which your friends and family are more likely to keep.

We can also supply reasonably priced envelopes to go with your Save The Date Cards. Have a look on our website Prices page for details of colours and cost.

We will often suggest a colour of envelope to complement the card or text colour, which then adds to the overall quality presentation of your message. It’s always good to open a surprise envelope, especially when it’s an unexpected and nice surprise.

I’m especially impressed by the matt black envelopes, which have a simple quality appearance all of their own. For modern thinking couples, matt black makes quite a statement.

The Champagne coloured envelope shown here is a popular choice when full details for the forthcoming event have not been finalised.

Summer is fast approaching and we can look forward to baking hot days followed by balmy evenings.

Hey, I can dream can’t I?

Just a quick reminder that if you click on one of the examples on the website it will open up a new window showing the card as a larger image and with a series of colour changing option buttons.

This let’s you see the different combinations of card and text colours so you will have a better impression of how your card could look. Try it out and you may be surprised how different the same design looks on different coloured cards with different coloured text.

Our Save The Date Magnet Cards are the same 760 micron high quality plastic cards we use for Save The Date Cards, but with the addition of a heart or star shaped die cut vinyl magnet bonded to the rear of the card. The magnet is designed to stay on a mild steel surface with the minimum attractive force required, to avoid causing surface scratching. The cards we use are the same size, quality and thickness as a standard bank card.

Email sales@savethedatecards.co.uk to request a free sample of our magnet cards.

As most of our cards are used for Weddings, most people opt for the heart magnets. We offer the star shapes primarily for non wedding related cards.
