:) I just did my very first LO in a 12x12 size and OMG!! I LOVE IT! I usually scrap and print in 8.5 x 11 because that is all my printer will do.

Where can I get 12x12's printed for good quality and not too terribly expensive?

Thanks!!

Cosco will print a 12x18" for $3.99 canadian dollars. just put your 12x12 in the center of a 12x18 layout and just cut off the extra photo paper.
If your monitor is calibrated with one of those suction cup do-hickies, then tell them that you don't want your print color or density corrected and it will look exactly like on your monitor screen.
They usually require 300 DPI, but some are 320 DPI.

cheers and good luck

Shutterfly will print 12 x 12 photobooks and have a special format just for scrappers so the LO will bleed to the edges of your books. Have fun!

They do storystory books and scrapbooking books. They have their own software so you can either do drag & drop books, or get more creative. Just upload you lo in high resolution (they don't reduce it at all). If you wanted, you could even create your lo with their software.

The great thing about uploading with them is that you can keep your album up there forever. There is no time limit. So that way, if you wanted to get a copy of your book next year, you could.

Hi Nella !!! I use scrapbookstoshare. I just sent off an order totalling 59 pages, 36 of which are 12x12 ,20 are 8x8 and 3 8x12. The total was more than reasonable around75.00)and their quality is great. Here is the link so you can check it out yourself. There are many online printing services, it's just a matter of finding your price, the paper and the size you want. Good luck. www.sbtoshare.com

I got some back about 2 weeks ago from sbtoshare and the print quality is really great, but I was highly dissappointed in the paper. It was just as flimsy as computer paper. But, then I went back and looked at my order...silly me did not get the "carstock" type because I went with the cheapest (to save a whole 25 cents a page). Next time I will try the cardstock and see what that comes out like. I would advise you not to waste your money on the cheapest paper because you're going to have to put that onto some cardstock for most albums.....unless you have one that the pages stick to. Make sure you get cardstock!

I am very happy with the quality of the print itself. One of mine had a small black smudge on the side and so they sent me an extra copy of it in 8x11 for free. So that was nice.
You can't beat their price.
