Jul 06 2009: 12×12 Prints

Jul 6, 2009 by

Since I finished book one of my Project 365 2009 album project I decided to get some of the pages printed. I get them printed at Costco, which is pretty reasonable at $2.99 a print, but I’m not thrilled with the result. The pages come out a bit darker than I would prefer. I’m not sure if they are using color correction on these kinds of prints, so next time I’m going to ask. Actually, that’s not quite true. Next time I’m going to go through this Internet service that prints 12x12s for $1.99. They market toward scrapbookers. An extra dollar a print saves a lot of money, so I’m hoping that I like the quality. I’ll report back when I find out.

Two of my favorite pages from the first album.

    Looks good! Sorry the color wasn’t what you wanted – I can’t remember what I heard about Costco’s printing and if they color-correct or not. I think they might. I’ll see if I can find my source. I printed out my first photo book through shutterfly and it turned out really well (digital scraps) and I did one through snapfish too which was also pretty good but it was just photos not scraps. Those are the only printers I’ve used. I heard great things about scrapbookpictures.com too though – very highly recommended.
