Please let me know what you think....

I haven't written TY's out yet, but am thinking of having all the addresses on a template for labels so that I can send them out as soon as I have them done.

Are labels tacky???

PS - am I spelling labels right?

LOL - clearly though you are not alone!
My DH thinks I need help b/c I am so obsessed with paper products even though I am not creative at all - when I have to go into
Papyrus, he just rolls his eyes b/c he knows i will never come out!

The one I ordered thanks to Stef is on this link-
for those who order for the first time, you need the embosser and the plate and then you can change the plates with different designs/addresses, etc. It's so nice!

Martha Stewart Embosser

Here are the design options!

Thanks Denise!!! When are you changing your scary thing? LOL! Just kiddin' I'm getting used to that guy!

As for the embossers, I think I'm going to check this out!!! What exactly is it? the return address????

Re: Labels to address TY's (Tacky or No?)

Lauren - the embosser is used as the return address - I pressed them into the back flap of the envelope and it looks really, really nice and classy! I looked all over for labels but I didn't like anything so I turned once again to Stef for advice! She recommended the embosser and it's awesome!

edited to say: I LOVE your Rudolph SANTA!

I just bought it on DVD for DH for Christmas with Frosty - it came in a 2 pack - he's going to be so happy - last year i got him the ornaments - he loves those movies!

Re: Labels to address TY's (Tacky or No?)

Has it been on TV yet? I'm pretty sure I missed Frosty and I caught Charlie Brown's Christmas, But I'm sooooo looking forward to watching Rudolph this year!

Lauren, I have a feeling that we did miss them on TV I think I rememeber that they may have been on around Thanksgiving but if I see it advertised, i will let you know!
Isn't it amazing that a cartoon with such
pre-historic animation can be so amazing after all theres years?!?! it's the best!

I hand wrote all mine...

but to tell you the truth that only people who would notice...are B2Bs...or uptight ettiquette snobs...

even knowing this rule...I never think about it...i always want to rip into the TY to see the pic!!

I agree, as long as you use the clear labels. Maybe you can print them in a nice font, insted of just times new roman.

FYI: The best wedding book I bought was 'The Brides Thank You Guide'. It was $6, written by Pamela something. I got it in Borders or B&N. It helped me get out my e-party TY's in 6 days!

Re: Labels to address TY's (Tacky or No?)

YOU'RE KIDDING!!!!!!!!!!!! I was home ALL night!!!

I'm so sad now. I know longer have cablevision (DH decided on Dish Network) so therefore have no more TV guide! I'm lost without the TV guide!

I'm so sad now! Thanks though Stef!

Ok, no luck there...but Im really sad to see that they wont air that cartoon 'twas the night before Christmas!'. I love that one. Im singing the songs in my head right now. 'You worry and I'll plan...we'll do whats necessary b/c even a miracle needs a hand...'

Re: Labels to address TY's (Tacky or No?)

Re: Labels to address TY's (Tacky or No?)

Thanks Stef! I will keep that list on hand!

As for 'twas the night before Christmas' it's been a loooooooong time since they aired that one! I used to love it!
