    Mine are nothing special. My photographer wrote her info like name weight and birthday on one of the newborn photos so I just printed them as a picture.

    what kinda coupon did you have? I got one in the mail for 100 free prints. the coupon has pictures of birth announcements but the fine print made it sound like you couldnt use it for that

    I ordered then from Walmart. They have a lot of templates to choose from and you can print them to the store for one hour pickup.

    I ordered mine from a website called Simply to Impress. I had a hard time finding a twin announcement I liked. The proof was adorable so I hope they arrive looking just as good. They should be here this week. :)

    Ordered mine from Tinyprints.  They are a tad expensive but I think worth it.  For cheaper invites, etc, I usually use Sam's Club.  I just picked up my Baptism invites today and they did a good job.

    I had the coupon as well. I just used PicMonkey, a free online editing website, to put his info on the photo and then uploaded it to shutterfly. I had a coupon for 100 free 4x6 prints. Just paid shipping, which was six bucks.

    I will add that Shutterfly crops your photos a tad, so don't put text near the edge of your photos like I did. It cut off part of our names. Whoops.

    I had one where I got $20 free merchandise - I think I got it in my Target registry gift bag. I only ended up paying like $15 for them after the discount!

    We just sent ours out yesterday. We got them from snapfish. They had a lot of cute templates and I got a coupon code for free shipping. They turned out very cute.

    I ordered mine via snapfish yesterday.  They are running a promotion of 40% off their announcements through the 15th using code julycards. It was still expensive but much cheaper then other places.

    Walmart definitely had the best prices when I price shopped, although I didn't like any of their templates.

    I used shutterfly. I liked their designs the best and I had a 20 off card from registering at bbb or somewhere.

    I used shutterfly. I got a code for 25 free ones from cashing in some gifts to grow points. Hubby took the pics himself. Not very professional looking, but I liked what he did.

    Shutterfly did that to me too when I made thank you cards out of our maternity pics! I was pissed!

    I will check out Walmart. Getting them quickly is enticing. We are taking pics tomorrow.
