Something to think about when ordering thank you cards

I ordered the 5x7 photo card and when I was writing them out I either had to write BIG or write A LOT in order to fill them enough. I WISH I would have ordered a smaller card. Just figured I would throw that out there.

I got many compliments but writing out over 100 thank you cards that big took me forever.

good advice, we did the old fashion photo insert ones. I couldn't fill most of them let alone a 5x7

We had a pre-printed message inside the card, which took up room (but I also wrote several handwritten, personal lines in there). So I didn't write any more than if I had the smaller thank you's....

Good point, though...

My writing is HUGE and I could have used bigger cards.

Amy, I did the same thing! I was thinking people could at least use the front of the card as a picture since it's frame sized... never thought about all the writing I would have to put inside of them!!!

Thats EXACTLY why I ordered a 5x7 LOL I also put a 3X5 photo inside of the 3 of us. I also had a little something written inside it but still! There were people at my wedding I STILL dont know. It was VERY hard to fill in a 5X7 card to a stranger LOL
