The Inviting Smiles Difference
The Inspiration Behind These Unique Photo Cards

On a daily basis, many of our customers ask us if we can print their photograph on a birth announcement or invitation.  There are a variety of  birth announcement companies that provide this service and we have referred many of our customers to these sites.  However, after receiving this same question countless times, we decided to offer a service that would provide our customers with an alternative to the "same old thing" that they continue to see.

One of the messages that provided such inspiration came from a customer through email.  The customer writes:  "Dear Inviting Smiles,  I am hoping that you can help me with my baby's birth announcements.  I have waited many years to finally have my dreams come true, and will be giving birth to my first child in less than three weeks.  Since this occasion will be so special to me and my husband, we are searching high and low for an announcement that will reflect this incredible time in our lives.  We have seen many companies that provide birth announcements with photos, however they all look the same.  Your cards are so incredibly different and unlike any we have seen elsewhere.  We thought that if there was a company out there that could create something truly unique for our special child - it had to be Inviting Smiles.  Can you help us or recommend a company that can?  Thanks in advance, Melanie."

This led to the creation of our newest photo line - Custom Photo Cards.  At Inviting Smiles we do not just print a black and white or color photograph that is hazed out around the edge.  We could do this, and it would be a very quick process, however Inviting Smiles prides itself on being original and unique.  You will notice that in our custom photo cards the subject of the picture is actually extracted from the photograph.  The extraction eliminates the "background" around your baby so that the focus of the picture is on your child.  This is a complex process that gives our cards the custom look that our customers continue to request.  The process is much more difficult and tedious than just hazing the edge of the photograph - but the end result is phenomenal.  In addition to the extracted image, we take the time to incorporate spot colors in your announcement.  Notice how the black and white Christmas card above uses the colors red, yellow and blue on the Christmas lights.  These are not the same colors from the original photograph.  These spot colors can be any color you desire.
