DIY Escort Cards

Hi. Did anyone print up their own place cards? Was it easy? Is there a template? Any info would be great! Thanks.

I bought them at staples, used the template that the package said, and printed them at kinkos, but you could easily print them on your home printer too. It was easy, but honestly the paper wasn't the best quality, but they were cheap!

i bought the kits @ michaels with the 40% off coupons and printed them myself. each kit has an ID that you look up online and download a template for MS Word so you just put peoples' names in and print it out.

we even printed little hearts on ours - really liked the way they came out

Awesome! Thanks ladies. I saw the ones at Michaels and want to add my own design element to them so that's exactly what I was wondering. Yay!

I ended up just handwriting them b/c I had such a hard time with my printer. I think it was b/c they were so small and my printer was just being a pain in the rear.

We used the Michael's kit - piece of cake! You could even by a pretty stamp/ink pad to add a more personal touch!

I did! I actually just printed a bunch to a page and used the paper cutter to cut them out. We used an embosser on the corners to make it fancy and pretty.
