I am extremely pleased by this set of 100 personalized envelopes. When I ordered them, I was leery that they were going to be cheap, flimsy envelopes and that the customization was going to be of poor quality. The product description stated that they are 9 1/2" x 4 1/8".
During the online customization process you get to pick the ink color, the font, and then there are 4 lines for customization print, but each line can only have 20 characters per line. The fonts are: Arial, Georgia, Helvetica, and Verdana. Color options are: Black, Brown, Blue, Yellow, Green, Pink, Red, and Purple. I chose the pink and was a bit worried that it might be too faint on the envelopes to see, but figured I'd go ahead and try it out anyway.
Here's what I disliked the most about the whole thing. You can only have 20 characters per line. This makes it difficult if you have a long name or long street address, or even live in a city with a long name. On top of that, as you're typing in your customization, it gives you a preview of how it will look on the envelope. -This is completely inaccurate. It shows the writing unevenly spaced and sort of all over the place. Each line varies in size and it looked TACKY! I was hoping it would NOT look like that when it showed up at my house.
When the envelopes arrived, I was extremely pleased by the overall quality of the envelopes. They were thick and sturdy. The pink was clear and legible. The customization block was evenly spaced out and uniform. It looked beautiful! However... even though I spelled everything correct in my customization, they spelled my name wrong. -My name is "JAMIE" but they spelled it "J.A.I.M.E.". I promptly notified the vendor, via the messaging on Amazon and two days later I had new envelopes with the corrected information.
At this time, I don't have photos, because all I had taken pictures of was the misprint. -Plus I am a bit lazy and trying to edit out my address, but leave enough that you can see the color print just seems like a bit of work.
I did receive a sample of this product at a discounted rate.
