so i am making v-day cards to mail out my STDs, but the cards dont fit in my printer so I bought labels to print the poem out onto. someone told me this is impersonal and against etiquette. what do you think?

I dont think the labels are a good idea, It seems sorta impersonal... Is there maybe another printer you could try to use?

i would take them to a printer..
what would the price diff be btwn buying lables,printing them urself, and labor.. vs. having a printing place do it for u?
if u end up doing labels..make sure they are clear at least..not white lol

geez christine if i hadnt had my coffee yet i would be a zombie lol. I have a pink card with a heart on the front of it...then you open up the card (this part im still playing around with) and on the left side would be the poem and on the right Im going to attach the STD magnet. Im not sure though I may switch that so the writting is on the 'correct' side but i originally had it this way so the magnet would be the focus

Re: is this tacky
would it be cheaper and less aggrivating if u skipped a card, got like small box of chocolates and atatched the std on that?
the card thing with the magnet attached sounds nice, but it reminded me of victoria secret coupons

by the time i bought the candy and payed for shipping it would be too much. plus i have started work on the cards. I get what your saying but this was the most logical way to send them out without being bent

ohhhhhh i see now.... why dont you price out how much it is to get cards made? a lot of places on line let you personalize them and they'll print them for you..... dont know what or how much youve dont so far, but its just an idea
