My first giveaway, people! Can you believe it? I really think you’re going to love it.
If you print pictures, scrapbook pages or pretty much anything you have GOT to try Persnickety Prints. I have used about 3 printing companies online and have always been pleased with what I got in the mail. Those companies do OK work and it was always something that I thought was “good enough”. That was until I tried Persnickety Prints last week. I placed an order for 15 scrapbook pages (12×12) on Thursday and got my prints on Saturday! When I opened them, I teared up a little, not gonna lie. The colors were amazing, exactly what I saw on my computer when I made the pages. There was no white edge around my page. They were not blurry. They were vibrant and perfect. I seriously could go on and on but I don’t have a thesaurus near me. And to my surprise when a tear fell on my page it didn’t ruin it! I had no clue the prints were waterproof too!
Along with the beauty and perfection of these pages, I saved a ton too! I was paying well over $2 a page when I’d print them off through the other companies PLUS shipping per page. It was a bank-breaker just to print out my memories. When I put in my 15 pages online through Persnickety I held my breath when I hit “checkout”. Let me tell you how much my debit card sighed when I realized how inexpensive they are! $1.99 for a 12×12 and a flat $5 shipping! Holy crap yall…at that price I can “re-print” the pages that I was just “ok” with from the other people!
So, why am I just gushing over this company? Well, because they are the best. Here’s why (direct from their website)…
Persnickety Prints uses the best silver halide printing systems. These prints are processed through the same chemicals as old film pictures, and with our pro fuji crystal photo paper are the most archival. Since it is completely a chemical process, there’s no ink to run or bleed. Your pages are waterproof and scratch resistant. These type of prints will last hundreds of years if stored properly in acid free photo albums and in photo frames away from direct sunlight.
Seriously, they still use a DARKROOM people! They inspect every page before they ship them to you! You can’t beat personal service like that especially at that crazy low price! I’m smitten, I’m in love and I’ve found my printer for my scrapbook pages and any pictures I need to print!
Because Persnickety Prints is awesome, I’m giving away a $25 gift certificate! You can print 4x6s, you can print 12×12, you can print CD calendars, you can print a 24×36, you can even do your Christmas cards; whatever your heart desires! And trust me, you WILL NOT be bummed when you open your package!

I want quality photos at a good price. Thanks for the giveaway!
Definitely quality is at the top of my list. I want the colors to be true. Of course the mot reasonable cost is a top consideration too and you seem to have discovered a printer who excels at both.
I want nice, clear, vibrant prints that pop off the page. Am definitely headed over to check them out. Thanks!
I just want my pics to look like they do on my computer!
Gosh, I’ve been looking for quality prints for quite sometime. True color quality is so important & service with a smile is so nice, too! Thank you for all the helpful info.
The first thing I always look for is whether a company does 12X12 photo books.
Ooooh! Too cool! Thanks for the chance to win!
