Vista Print questions.....Hayley???

Mrs. D (formerly Tasha E), on January 7, 2012 at 7:39 PM Posted in Do It Yourself 0 21

There is a design that I already found on their site that we want to use.

I'm looking to order 30 of each: Invites

RSVPs

Some type of STD magnets

Lawn signs (a few to lead the way to the ceremony)

Any other little freebies would be nice too...like, Car magnet, T-shirts, Address labels.

I want to be able to custom the text and move the boxes, so I know I will have to use the advance editing option.

I would love to use any free or really cheap specials.

I would like to try and get these all designed and ready to order but not place the order for a few more weeks, can I do that?

I have no idea how to navigate the deals, and work the "free magic" or save on shipping. Any help would be appreciated.

***Edit to add pic of the invitation that I designed today.

    Hayley sent me this link-- might work for you. I was just looking for 10 free though.

    Yep, I posted this link on my "ideas for VP free items" as a substitute until Jena fixes her site....

    It seems to work for select designs and for the upload invite. The only problem is that it is not free uploads connected to this link Smiley sad so, it will cost you 4.99 for 10

    But if you had uploaded the image and used it before, you are ok, they won't charge you again.

    I designed some things but justhit "save for later"

    Is there a way to get 3 orders of the 10 free invites? hehe

    I did find that they were offering the small lawn sign for .99c for one right now.

    What are the tricks to save on shipping. And can I order all of these free things in one order?

    Is an upload if you wanted to add a photo?

    Thanks

    Yes, you can click the link 3 times and do 3 different orders.

    The shipping, is what it is, with that sale. Sometimes they have deals (30% off everything and free shipping on orders over $&dollarSmiley winking but this is not one of those deals)

    Yes, they charge you 4.99 per photo that you upload BUT after you pay it once, you can use it again and again, you don't need to pay every time you order something.

    Yes, you can order 1 of everything off that list if you like. And have a big order of 20 free items sent to your home. And then, you can do it again if you need doubles of something.

    Only SOME of the free items charge you for the advance edit (like the totes - grrrr!)

    So, yes, I think if it says charge for advance edit, you will be charged Smiley sad

    And some of the free items are only with select designs Smiley sad

    Again, Jena the VP goddess is on the look out for a better deal, one with Free uploads and Free advance edit on all items, so just keep clicking her site too!

    @ Jessica - I will cross my fingers and my toes for you

    I've made business card sized STD magnets (we are going to send them with the invitations since almost all of our guest are from out of state and we'll just send it all a little early) Envelope seals, lawn ceremony direction sign, postcard RSVPs, guest book pen, 2 car door 'Just Married" magnets, address labels, Thank You notecards. The total on all of that so far is $12.48. Shipping will be $32 for 7 day shipping. I still have to create and order the invitations. But I'm super excited. Such a great deal.

    #1 address labels 140~free

    #2 product stickers 24~free

    #3 Car door magnets large 1~free I got 2~$9.98

    **Edit to remove the address labels, since I didnt realize I posted the pic with my address on it.

    Idk if you've ordered from vista print before, but I've never had the cheapest slow option actually take 21 days - so if you have time, I'd suggest doing it that way Smiley smile

    oh - and I live in Alaska where shipping is notoriously slow.

    I can't help myself... I hope you don't mind....

    did you see this design for the envelope seals? I added a text box so I could get your initial in there...

    or the business circle one you did... you can use the "add image" for free... search the VP library for the color Brown, and add a swirl...

    do them BOTH... they Both come up as 24 Free because they are a different product!

    @ Merfy Lou~ No I haven't ordered from VP before. There was a slower option, I think it was $24 or something close to that. I probably will do the slower shipping. Thanks for the tip.

    @ Hayley~ Wow! This is why we love you so!!! lol. You know what you are doing. I love the font you found so much better than the font that I chose to add here and there. Do you recall the name? And I love the design you made. Thanks!

    I kinda re-did your magnet too.... maybe you can order both like the stickers and get both for free?

    If you go to XL photo magnet... click "get started" to go to their gallery of images, and in the top right side is a "start with blank template" link. (under the upload completed design)

    Click that. Search the VP library for "blue" to get the blue... then search again for "brown" to get the swirls again. If you click back near the last few pages, they have the swirls going the other way too.

    I picked Jefferiana for the font... I don't think I spelled that correctly.

    I'm glad you like it, I kinda like it better than yours and was going to suggest to change your font for your invites...

    How did you get the name text to cover the D?

    You just need to see which text box is the "bottom" box.

    So I put in your Names and the "D" and then over lapped them. If it was overlapping the wrong way, I switched them so they were the correct way.

    When you click the "I agree" a warning pops up telling you that you are overlapping, just click "OK"

    If you need to add text boxes, and it is the "wrong brown"

    use the change colors - more colors....

    I added a "D" to the car magnet too... Smiley laugh

    And Impact Bold - makes a little better arrow.

    ****If you made the sign double sided, be sure it is pointing to the right for the other side. That way it will be pointing the right way when in the ground if they will see it from both sides the same

    Good... I'm glad you like them, yes please, copy them.... that is why I designed them.

    Maybe play with the font for the save the date? put your names in jefferana?

    At least they are saved and you can play more later..... IF you feel like going to bed Smiley smile

    For your .99 lawn sign, did you check to see if they gave anything else for free?

    mug? decal?

    If the do a deal on the decal you can put that across the back window of the car...

    or see how much a large one costs for the floor?

    free pen?

    Have fun!
