    Looking for the easiest way to print your own homemade
    cards? Since our Half Folds ship as 8 1/2 x 11 card stock, they're the
    perfect size for home printing--just like copy paper size! In this
    video tutorial, you'll learn to create a printing template using
    Microsoft Word from which you'll customize your card and print both
    the inside and outside. Use what you learn to print programs,
    invitations, and greeting cards for any occasion! Our Half Folds are
    pre-scored, so after printing, it's a simple fold down the middle to
    finish your custom made card. It's never been so easy to print
    personalized greeting cards!

    This info is incredibly useful and your instructions actually make sense. You are very articulate and your voice is calming, unlike the in your face videos. And it is nice that you are not begging people to subscribe and ring the bell. Thank you.

    Thank you for getting straight to the point. So many videos people start off begging for likes/subscribes. You made this look very simple, as it should be.

    • @danielphillips5229

      Can't we just create a 2-page document and print with duplex enabled? I think that would be easier.

    Great video, to the point video. Also, folks making cards may want to add “Created with love by Patti” or something like that customized to your name obviously to appear on the bottom back of the card. Just a thought. Thanks for the great video! (I love that this was made ten years ago, before everyone was an expert and had a channel lol) Trustworthy and still relevant.

    Thanks good job - enter down on the second column and keep going till into page two, then enter again until into second column of page two to enter right side inside message - then use printer setting “two sided print - flip on short edge” and can print on both sides at once and everything comes out in correct place thanks again

    Excellent! You speak slowly succinctly, and with an American accent! I have been on computers for longer than many people have been alive, and have always struggled with how to make greeting cards. The amount of paper and ink I wasted would have paid for someone's college education! A head slapping moment came when you showed the formatting trick was to use two columns. Gawd!

    • @Mcgturtle3
      @Mcgturtle3 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      There's no such thing as an "American accent"

She knows less than I do on most stuff on the computer lol.

    What is the best printer for doing greeting cards? Is there a printer with ink or toner that do not run when exposed to high humidity or other moisture situations like a mail man not closing a mailbox all the way
