The cards at a glance: pack, format, card stock, price

Exactly what you get:

A pack of 10 identical cards: the same photo and the same text on all ten. It is not a pack of ten different photos.
The format: A6, 10.5 × 14.8 cm, the size of a standard postcard.
The card: 300 gsm, thick enough to stand up on a shelf.
The price: $26.00 a pack, shipping included, which is $2.60 a card.
Timing: 5 to 10 working days in the UK, Europe and the US, up to 15 elsewhere, printing and delivery included.

Want two different photos, say one for each side of the family? That is two packs: $52.00 for 20 cards.

Uses: thank-you notes, announcements, New Year cards, invitations

Saying thank you: after a wedding, a party or a leaving do, a photo from the day and "Thank you!". The Thank-you template (« Merci ! » in the studio) is ready to go. Ideas in the personalised thank-you gift.
Birth announcements: the baby's photo, name and date. The Hello baby template suits it. See the personalised new baby gift.
New Year cards (holiday cards in the US): the family photo of the year and "Happy New Year 2027". In France they go out in January; send yours in early January, or as Christmas cards in December. It is all covered in photo New Year cards for 2027.
Invitations: a birthday, a housewarming, a family reunion, with the date and place in a few words.
Keepsakes: your pet, a trip, a child's drawing. For a dog or a cat, see cards with your pet's photo.

Which photo and which words

An A6 card is held in the hand, 30 cm from the eyes: the photo has to be sharp and the text readable without squinting.

A sharp, bright photo: the guidelines are in photo resolution for printing. For an image that is too small, try Make the photo sharper (AI).
Tight framing: the card is small, so a close-up subject beats a wide landscape where you have to hunt for the faces.
Cutting out: the free Remove background (AI) button isolates the subject if the background is busy.
The text: a word and a date are enough: "Thank you", "Welcome, Lily", "Happy New Year". The ready-made text styles and the text ideas for each occasion help.
The templates: Thank you (« Merci ! »), Hello baby, Polaroid, Family (« Famille » in the studio), Love.

Mistakes to avoid

Assuming the 10 cards are different: the pack carries the same photo on all ten. For several photos, order several packs.
Too much text: on 10.5 × 14.8 cm, a long sentence becomes unreadable. One word, one date.
A distant group photo: at this size nobody is recognisable. Crop tight.
Cutting it too fine on numbers: if in doubt, order one pack more than your list, $26.00 for 10 extra cards.
Ordering too late: 5 to 10 working days in the UK, Europe and the US, up to 15 elsewhere. For cards before Christmas 2026 in Europe, order before Thursday 10 December; outside Europe, order by early December.

Prices include shipping, with no minimum order. Printed to order near the delivery address, delivered in 5 to 10 working days in the UK, Europe and the US, up to 15 elsewhere.
