Menu Cards Help =] ????

Good Morning to all my beautiful Ladies!!

FH and I went to AC Moore last night to look for Cardstock for Menu's. I ended up picking really pretty sapphire cardstock with White Vellum over with the bow and blah blah and FH literally had a BRIDEZILLA moment!! Pouting and arguing with me in the store ((LOL!!)) and the poor sales girl....I think we traumatized her from ever getting married!

So anyway, he wants to cut costs and go for plain white (cheaper blah) so I figured i'd let him win

Soooo nowwwwwwww ((I am ) but whatever lol He usually let's me get my way so we'll do the plain white.... my question isssss........

Has anyone done their own in really nice print? Is there a program I can use for some nice cursive writing and designs? I'd like to make these look as pretty as possible. TIA!!!!

Hey there ladies,
Check out paperandmore.com, I was tipped off by another bride about it, and it is so much cheaper than AC Moore or MIchaels, it comes out to b/w .29 cents and .34 cents a sheet and they have great paper choices. (We picked the crimson metallic paper, it is amazing!).
They even do the cutting of the paper for you, for a nominal fee. They are great!
And try dafont.com, they have a font calle Scriptina, which is amazing, if you check on my album, you can see the print (our names are in Scriptina).
Any other questions feel free to ask!

Here are some font examples ladies. If you like any you can pull them from dafont.com or other font websites you like. I can bump my thread on fonts on DIY board if that helps anyone to find some and install them. FM me if you have any problems.
