Re: Addressing Envelopes

We did city, state and zip on the same line, unless it was really long then the zip went on the next line. Depends how large your font is.

Re: Addressing Envelopes

Well I wrote them out myself ( i have descent handrwriting I think) and I found myself doing both options actually- some addresses were long so I needed that extra line for the zip code where as others were okay and I put them all on one line- it looks nice either way there really isnt a wrong way of doing it- but IMO the zip code on the last line adds a nice touch to it for some reason (kind of makes them stand out)

Good Luck- HTH
