This is a really cute card. I have never used shutterfly before. I just looked at their website, but did not see this border on there. Can you please tell me where to look? ALso, how long did it take for shipping?

Thanks,
Michelle

Click the link for "Shutterfly Store" then "Cards" then "4x8 Photo Cards" the one I used is in the category "Winter" (http://www.shutterfly.com/photocards/create.jsp?cidx=2&styleidx=9)

With the cheapest shipping they should arrive in about a week. I ordered on Wednesday and they were shipped today.

I copied to my computer and then used the attachment feature that is available when you post a message.

I have created my card at the shutterfly website, but can't tell quality of scanned picture on computer screen (kind of looks grainy). Are scanned photos just as good quality as photos that were downloaded to computer from camera?

I think it's a good idea to order a test card, or at least test prints. I had taken pictures with both my digital camera and film camera, with negatives scanned at a high resolution at a quality photo lab. Then I had them both printed by Shutterfly (5x7 prints, not cards). I figured the prints from the scanned negatives would look as good as or better than the digital camera pics, but I was surprised when the digital camera pics came back less grainy. I was glad that I ordered the test prints before committing to a picture.
