Image Specifications

What types of images do you suggest I upload to my cards?
Images scanned into your computer, retrieved from a photo CD, or uploaded from a digital camera will work well for your cards. We do not recommend using images taken from the Internet because their quality is generally too low for printing. Sincerely Scent will alert you of poor image quality if you attempt to upload a photo that does not meet the minimum quality standards. You may continue to use the image though the card may not print as clear as what is displayed on your computer screen.
What digital file formats can I use for my images?
You can upload images in any of the following formats: *.jpg, *.jpeg, *.bmp, *.png, *.gif, *.tif, *.eps, or *.pdf.
How large of an image can I upload?
We recommend uploading files no larger than 5 megabytes. Please be aware that the larger the file, the longer it may take to load, depending on the speed of your Internet connection and/or the file size limits set by your Internet service provider.
Do I need to use only high-quality images?
You’ll get the best quality card by uploading the largest images. We recomment you pick a clear, high-resolution image, at least 150 dpi (dots per inch), but preferably 300 dpi or more, that has not been pulled from the internet.

We don’t proof images before printing, so please make sure you preview your image carefully.

 

Do you auto-rotate my images?
No. We print your images as they appear in your preview. Before submitting your order, make sure the image is oriented properly. After you upload an image, you can rotate it using our Photo Edit tool.

 

Scent Spot

Must I select a Scent Spot with my card order?
Yes. Each Sincerely Scent card requires a Scent Spot selection.
How long will the Scent Spot last?
Much like a Scentsy Bar, the intensity of the Scent Spot’s fragrance will vary according to conditions such as humidity and temperature. The fragrance also will be influenced by how long it is stored in your Sincerely Scent card. Each card contains ink that can compete with your Scent Spot’s fragrance over time. For best results, experience your Scent Spot as soon as you receive your card.
Can I safely touch and smell the Scent Spot?
Yes. The Scent Spot is safe to touch and smell. However, despite rigorous testing, some individuals may be sensitive to Scent Spot ingredients. Please keep in mind that the Scent Spot contains fragrance oils, so wash your hands after handling it to prevent transferring these oils to other surfaces. Also, do not place your Scent Spot directly on any finished surfaces, as damage to these surfaces may occur.
Will my cards be impacted by heat or cold during delivery?
Our cards are designed to handle normal mail delivery — in both summer and winter temperature conditions — and general card use.
What is the best way to store my cards?
To best preserve your cards, store them in their original scent barrier envelopes, with the Scent Spot placed inside the cards.
Can I warm the Scent Spot?
No. The Scent Spot is not intended to be warmed or heated in any way. Do not place a Scent Spot in the microwave, oven, dryer, Scentsy Warmer, or any other area where the product may come into contact with heat.
