How does this work?

Cara Laine cards are expertly created from your favorite photo, by our talented artists. Cara Laine dealers can help you choose a design from our selection album, and will collect your order details and photograph. About four business days later, the dealer will receive a proof of your card. Upon approval, your cards will be shipped in about 2-3 more business days.

Photo retouching is included! We remove flaws from your photo, soften it, adjust the crop and lighting, and feather the edges. No extra charge. We can make your color photo into a black and white photo, a retouched color photo, a sepia tone or a hand-tinted photo.

Don't forget Holiday Cards!

Many of our customers return at the holidays for a special holiday greeting for their friends and family. Your custom photo greeting will be the highlight of the season's deliveries.

Baby photos make smiles.

For best results, take a lot of pictures (digital or print) in a well-lit area, while baby is happy or sleeping. Zoom in, and step back at least three feet if using a flash. Also, check the area around the baby. Fill in any gaps. Then all you have to do is send us the photos that best capture how you feel about your baby, and we will help you announce him in style!

Exceptional customer care:

• Rapid and accurate turnaround is normally
9-10 weekdays from date order sent, assuming one day proof approval. A few days longer mid-November through December due to holiday card order volume.
• Satisfaction guaranteed.
• Choose from a digital or actual card proof.
