For the last several years, my wife and I have sent cards at Thanksgiving instead of Christmas. Our experience is that our friends actually read and enjoy these cards and they are not part of the deluge that comes a few weeks later. We reviewed several online card companies and selected CardsDirect based on the quality of their cards, their great attention to detail and their wonderful service. This year, we developed our Thanksgiving message and ordered cards as we have done before. When the cards came, I discovered that our message was not gramatically correct. This problem was entirely my fault. However, when I called CardsDirect and asked to order another batch, they simply corrected the message, reprinted our cards, and shipped the corrected batch at no charge. I highly recommend this company and certainly will do business with them in the years to come.
The cover of the card is pretty and the weight and texture of the cardstock is nice. Something I didn't like about the card is that on the inside, you can see the imprints of the leaves. I think it would look nicer with a folded paper insert to hide the imprints. Also, it is difficult to see a personal message or signature because of the dark color. A gold pen would probably work.
Our Company cards arrived in the time frame promised. The cards are beautiful and of high quality paper as well as printing. We couldn't be happier, we even received several clients phone calls praising the cards!
