I'm not sure if I've mentioned it before or not, but I kind of have a thing for pretty stationary. I don't write many letters but I still love it. So the other night I decided that I needed some personalized stationary. I went to
VistaPrint to check out their deals (sometimes you can get their products free and just pay shipping). They had a great deal on cards so I went in to their galleries and made up some cute cards for myself. Once I had purchased them I started wondering if I could have just made them myself. So, I went into MS Word and started messing around. Clip art has come a long way since I lasted used it! I had a lot of fun looking through all the clip art and picking out fonts to go with them.
I picked out some images that I liked, then stuck some WordArt in and wa-la - I had some pretty, personalized cards. I just printed the images out on some white cardstock that I had on hand, trimmed them up with my paper trimmer, and had myself some pretty little cards.
Love them! Cheap, fun little cards. This could keep me busy for a long time. Well...until I run out of ink that is.

Oh my gosh, where have I been?! I had no idea you could do all of that with clip art. I love those cards!
You could have your own little Hallmark store! :) I love the dandelion card. What sites do you like for clip art?
Oh my goodness! These are so cute! Who knew you could do such good stuff with clip art??
That is very cool!
I'm glad you do the Walmart samples too! It's kind of fun.
We smoke brisket a lot on our smoker...we'd have you guys over if you lived closer!
Have a good weekend also! :)
I am so computer illiterate that I wouldn't have a clue how to make those! They are so adorable!!!
Thanks for the sweet comments! Where you been over here? I'm waiting for your next post! Miss ya and hope all is well with you and your family.
The plate belongs to another UL consultant. I believe she found it at Tuesday Morning or TJ Maxx
Hi Nichole, yes, keep reminding yourself of that about the bathroom! I swear, having kids is wonderful, but I am glad we waited and were married for a while first! Enjoy your solitude with just you and hubby for a while! I never in a million years imagined how our lives would change! :))
Great job!
VistaPrint is where we purchased our renewal ceremony invitations and RSVP postcards.
Thank you for the Valentine! It made my day! It's so cute, you did a great job on it! I think if we lived closer we'd have fun hanging out! At least I get to know you through your blog. I'm glad you like reading mine. I'm not creative like you, but I just feel like we have a lot in common!! Have a great day! I'm so glad we're friends. :))
