I was wondering if any of you are super duper good with graphic design? I can't find a pre-existing address label template that I like and have no idea how to go about creating one..
Below are my invitations and my return address labels...
I would like to make a pretty address label for the invitations since we are not using calligraphy. I would like it to almost look like a little scrolly frame around the address, or just a scroll on top and bottom of the label...
Any help would be AMAZING!!
THANKS!!
PS- I have the Avery 8163 Labels so I need to use a template that is compatible with them!

I would actually see if you can try running your envelopes through the printer. My friend swears by it. I am always afraid to put labels on crooked.

I am printing my labels also. You can choose a very fancy font and it will come out very pretty. As for the design, if you have it, you can insert it into the labels when you are formatting the address, or are you merging?

Your invitations are beautiful!! Who did you use for them? Also, I don't know if this is helpful but if you have Microsoft Word, they have templates for labels that you may be able to find something in.

I am formatting the addresses by hand, but my problem is I don't have the design I can't find any free online and have no idea how to make them myself

Are there directions somewhere for how to do this? Do you have to insert everyone individually? How do I do this??? lol

We used 'her'- she did a great job. They are pocket-cards...this is what the back looks like. (they are crooked b/c I didn't fix them, not b/c they are cut crooked or anything!)
And these are how the inserts are held together nicely in the back pocket...

when you feed the envelopes through the printer, choose the manual feed tray from your printer setting. Then feed the envelopes in one by one - there should be a diagram on your printer that shows which way to put the envelope in. As far as the swirl, maybe you can try creating one freehand with the drawing tool, save it and then insert into the labels? Or maybe a fancy border?
