Poppin Prints (Review & $50 GC Giveaway - CLOSED)
Poppin Prints, LLC was created by newborn photographer, Laura McGraw of Portland, Oregon. Laura McGraw has been a professional photographer for more than 12 years. Laura's true passion and natural talent captures the pure innocence of a newborn baby and transfers it onto a timeless medium, a portrait, for proud parents to share with their family and friends.
The mission of Poppin Prints, LLC is to provide the same high quality custom birth announcements, holiday cards, and other stationery Laura McGraw Photography provides to its clients, yet in an easy to follow, self service manner. Poppin Print's entire infrastructure has been built to provide the customer with unparalleled quality of product and service within the stationary industry.
My Review of Poppin Prints, LLC
Laura McGraw, the owner and founder of Poppin Prints, sent me a folder full of samples of their work so that I could see the actual products and give my readers my honest review.I have to say, I was truly blown away with the beauty of the cards and stationery. Every detail - from the business card to the paper the press release was printed on, and then the cards themselves - it was all perfect, and farther above par than I have ever seen an announcement company go.
The quality of the cards is flawless. She sent me samples of 3 kinds of paper they use to print on: The Signature Metallic Cardstock, the Exquisite Linen Cardstock, and their Standard Heavy Matte Cardstock. And the designs on the cards are also unique. My favorite sample that I received was the tri-fold metallic photo birth announcement. I've never seen colors pop like this before! Simply stunning. These are not your average cards. These cards say "This event is special to me, and I wanted to send the very best."
Now, I know what you're thinking: "Ok, so they're the best. But can I afford them?" Well, after checking out the Poppin Prints website, I am excited to say, "YES! You CAN afford them!" With announcements starting at just $1.49 per card, you can order cards to send to all of your friends and family.
As a photographer and designer myself, I would definitely recommend Poppin Prints to everyone I know. Whether you're looking for a birth announcement, a holiday card, personalized stationery, or if you need thank you cards, definitely stop by Poppin Prints and view their beautiful selection.Want to Try Poppin Prints for Yourself?

Personally, I would spend the gift certificate on a birthday card for my niece. She's turning two years old in just a couple of months. I would pick the Tropical Flowers design for her.
