It's cheaper, but if you think about the monetary value of it. These ink cards cost more. It might be computer printed but less personal because it not handwritten. I don't know. I think I need to get an ink card sent to me to see the quality and see how they compare to my cards from Target's 50 pack. I could argue that what you were going to write on a handwritten note would be the exact same message sent on an ink card. It's still can be personalized to the recipient. For me, it's not going to be a mass produced card that says 'Thank you for the gift! -Signed, your name.' At least, that's not what I would do. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/psa-thanks-you-notes-thru-inked-cards-amp-postagram#post-2221796 Mon, 29 Jun 2015 14:07:31 +0000 yoursilverlining 2221796@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've used Postagram and liked it, and thought the quality was fine (and I love that the picture actually pops out of the card, so your recipient can keep just the photo if they want, without keeping the entire postcard, but IMO thank-you cards should be more personal and handwritten. I'm sure I'm old-fashioned this way, but I don't feel comfortable using them as thank-you cards. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/psa-thanks-you-notes-thru-inked-cards-amp-postagram#post-2221795 Mon, 29 Jun 2015 14:04:18 +0000 BSB 2221795@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@autumnlove: @Mamaof2: Oh, I don't know about the quality. I should have a card sent to myself to see. </p> <p>One downside is that they don't have a website. You have to use your app on your phone or tablet. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/psa-thanks-you-notes-thru-inked-cards-amp-postagram#post-2221774 Mon, 29 Jun 2015 13:56:53 +0000 BSB 2221774@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@youboots: I believe I bought a package through one of these sites/apps. I have the app on my ipad which is at home. </p> <p>I signed up because I like the ability to send cards (birthday and other events) without having to remember to go to a card shop. I think I bought a $10 plan (one-time). </p> <p>Good idea to use it for thank you cards!</p> <p>ETA: I looked and I bought a package through Sincerely and it looks like with Sincerely, I can buy cards through Ink or Postagram. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/psa-thanks-you-notes-thru-inked-cards-amp-postagram#post-2221720 Mon, 29 Jun 2015 13:16:41 +0000 Mamaof2 2221720@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love Postagram and used it for DD's birthday thank you's!<br /> I actually sent myself one when I 1st signed up just to see the quality and thought it was great! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/psa-thanks-you-notes-thru-inked-cards-amp-postagram#post-2221706 Mon, 29 Jun 2015 13:05:39 +0000 autumnlove 2221706@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I used Ink and it was convenient but my friend brought over the card I sent and the quality wasn't that great. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/psa-thanks-you-notes-thru-inked-cards-amp-postagram#post-2221698 Mon, 29 Jun 2015 12:54:03 +0000 youboots 2221698@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I told the ladies in my March group about these apps and wanted to share here too. @bluestripedbee got me thinking about thank you notes.</p> <p>After we had the baby I felt like there was a steady stream of thank you's to send, but sitting down and working on cards felt like such a chore. I remembered my sister had send a photo with a message on the back, found it and looked up the info. There are two apps that are similar and awesome. Both apps are done all in phone... uploading a photo, writing a message, adding an address (it creates and address book as you add people) They also give tracking info, and update you when it is ordered, mailed &amp; delivered. Postagram sends a square pop out photo and a message, it is $1 a postcard. Ink cards is more traditional and they have templates without photos I have sent Fathers Day cards, Birthday cards, Congratulations cards random prints to my grandma, Thank yous etc. Inked cards are $2 each. I love these apps and use them all the time. They make my mail process so much more streamlined. Plus for $1 a postcard, it is basically the same price as buying your own and adding a stamp. After the baby it was a game changer.</p> <p>I told my cousin and her son sent out his graduation gift Thank Yous thru Ink.</p> <p>I feel like I could write a whole blog post about them :)</p> <p>[attach=5281/15/nqpwki.338x600.image.jpg]</p> <p>[attach=5281/15/nqpwkk.338x600.image.jpg] </p>
