    Gift Cards

    The next time you send a gift card, personalize it with one of your images. However, the recipient will just end up cutting your image to get to the coupon.

    That will be very handy, John -- though a little bit too late for occasions in this house. I copied and pasted the link so I do not lose it when the time comes...'Am planning to start planning my theme for Christmas very early this year so I do not have to rush-rush like we did last year...

    Isabel,

    Glad you liked it. I was in a store purchasing hp ink cartridges and the clerk gave me a box containing the TwoSmiles Card Kit (10 each envelopes 5" x 7" cards). The clerk warned me that the ink cartridges I purchased were only partially filled, enough ink to print on the 10 cards inside the box.

    Another alternative, if you do your own printing, is photographic card stock from Red River: http://www.redrivercatalog.com/cardshop/index.htm. You can buy a sampler box with a bunch of different card stocks. I settled on Arctic Polar Matte, which produces really nice cards. If you use Lightroom, Red River provides a number of pre-made printing templates for each size of stock, which makes it very easy. I just changed the identity plate to say 'photo and print by...' We use mine for all sorts of things, from birthday cards to sympathy cards.

    The only hard part is that on my cheap printer, stock this heavy has to be loaded a sheet at a time from the front of the printer. This is slow, so it is may not be so good if you send out scores of cards.

    Does it allow you to pre-pay coupons?
