Hallmark Card Studio 2009
Just wanted to share this with you. We were discussing Birthdays and sending cards and such. Well, I've been a member of American Greetings online for quite a while now, and for $25 or so a year, I can Create & Print all the cards I want using their templates. They can be printed half fold on 8.5 x 11 card stock or on regular paper 8.5 x 11 quarter fold. I buy the envelopes at Walmart or OfficeDepot for these size cards.
Well, I decided I'd like to try another source of Create & Print cards, so went to the Hallmark website to see what they have. They sell card making software, and it wasn't very expensive, so I ordered Hallmark Card Studio 2009 for $29.99, and it is fantastic!!! Reasons I like is so much: 1. They give you lots of options for printing on different size papers. My plan is to buy 5 x 8 plain index cards and print 1/2 fold on them. Folded they will fit perfectly in the envelopes that I was using for quarter fold 8.5 x 11 sheets, only I think the cards will look much nicer. This would be a nice size for thank you notes, also. 2. There is an events calendar that I can put everyone's birthday and anniversary on to keep track of them. 3. You can enter your address book and address and print envelopes. 4. There are lots of other projects, too, like calendars, postcards, gift tags, to name a few. My only regret is that I did not spend the little extra and buy the deluxe version. I didn't realize it was available when I ordered or would have bought it. The American Greetings site is nice, and I may still remain a member, will see what I think when it's time to renew again. There are a few projects thqt I can do on there that I'm not sure are available with the Hallmark software. Just thought some of you may be interested in this. Greeting cards are sooo expensive and this way, I can send lots more than I would otherwise. Plus, I love the convenience of printing them late at night if needed. Saves time and money.
