And I'm not happy with them AT ALL Chat Icon The quality of the picture is great and I love the card itself, but it's on regular photo paper. Not a strong card stock (if that makes sense) so they're really flimsy, just like a regular photo would be.

I imagined they'd be thicker Chat Icon

Ugh, so not liking them.

Can you return them? I know with some sites even if it is customized you can return it.

Really? The only ones that come on cardstock that I've ordered are the folded cards. The 5x7 or 4x8 photo cards are always on photo paper. Honestly, the ones on the cardstock never come out very clear IMO.

Re: Ugh. Just got our holiday cards from Shutterfly...

I mean, I will most likely send them anyway... I just wish they had a better quality as far as the thickness.

I see that the folded or the "designer" photo cards come in a thicker card stock... But I loves the pattern for ours.

Oh well. I'll know for next year I guess!

I'm sure they came out great! I think all photocards come on regular photo paper.

Can you post your card?!?!?

Sorry, Shutterfly wouldn't let me copy, so I had to take a picture of it....

It says "May the true spirit of the holiday season fill your heart with peace and love. Happy Holidays! Love, Bryan Rachelle and Bella"

unless it is a folded card, it would be on photo paper, they are all like that.

I love the design too. I wouldn't worry about the card stock it came on.

I do know what you mean - as I went slightly crazy over finding thick card stock for invites. I think with holiday cards, it is what is on them that counts more.
