Hi Everyone, My invites are going to be in soon and I need to get some feedback on hand written calligraphy versus computer calligraphy. I have seen both on other peoples invites and I am sorta leaning towards the computer calligraphy.
I don't know where to start with either so any input would be very much appreciated...Thanks, Vicki

Yes, I would love to see pics. Also, is it a service that someone offers or do you buy a program and do it your self? Thanks for the feed back.

I set it up myself. Bought ClipArt Font 2 at Staples for $15 - - they have all styles. Just set your margins to the size of your envelopes. Just practice with regular paper first, it isn't as hard as you would think.

Did anyone have a problem with the envelopes getting stuck in the printer, my envelope is lined so its pretty thick.
Also did anyone get envelopes addressed at a printer and how much did cost?
Thanks Septbride

Mine were lined and think, just don't add too many at one time. I priced printers at $1.15 for both the inner and outer envelopes.
