Last Minute Holiday Photo Cards Can Now Be Mailed as Late as Dec. 15th - Even Custom Photo Cards

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--AmazingMail, an online Inc. 5000 postcard marketing company, today announced that its image gallery of holiday card templates has doubled in quantity and more than 124,000 images have been added, due to a new partnership with a leading online stock photography provider. With this expansion, AmazingMail now offers one of the largest selections of Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanza and other holiday card options available online.

Last minute custom cards - with or without family photos

Want to send a holiday card to relatives that is a little more lasting than a will-o-wisp e-card? AmazingMail is a last minute option that allows consumers to send a printed, laminated holiday photo card or postcard as late as Dec. 15th and still arrive in time for the Christmas holiday.

At www.amazingmail.com, consumers can upload their own photo or use one of over 124,000 stock images and photo borders for a completely custom result. Within 24 hours of placing the order, the card(s) are conveniently printed and mailed directly to the recipient at no extra charge. Because the extra steps of signing, stuffing, stamping, addressing and sending the holiday cards are avoided, days are shaved off of the process. However, mailing a minimum of five-to-seven days before the anticipated delivery date is recommended.

Budget-friendly solution costs less

Including postage, the cost of an AmazingMail card ranges from a budget-friendly $.49 to $.1.80 per postcard, and $.84 to $1.90 per folded card. No minimum order is required. Cards can also be scheduled to mail on specific dates, so an entire year of birthday cards can be designed and ordered at one time.

4 tips to make your photo card unique

Amazing Mail offers the following suggestions for memorable cards:

Crop the photo to make it more interesting and improve close-up detail.
Instead of a long letter about what your family did this year, consider telling the story in a collage of photos or a photo timeline, or even write the saga as a poem.
Consider sending a holiday card AFTER the holidays. It becomes a thank you card and you can use your favorite photo from Christmas day.
Always write something personal. Even if you are crunched for time, cards are much more meaningful if there is an authentic message that references something personal. Tools like AmazingMail.com make it simple to do an entire batch of cards quickly and inexpensively, even with a different message on each photo card.

For a limited time, AmazingMail is offering a 25% holiday discount of 25 free cards to new customers who purchase 100 cards online using promo code FREE25 (offer expires 12/31/10).
