I pulled out a ton of recipe cards and will be using these as business cards.
I have two labels, one is obviously for my contact info, the other is the advertisement! Please feel free to use it, if you wish. You will need MicroSoft Publisher to edit it or just use the idea from the .pdf to create your own.

I am using recipe cards also for a host benefit demo at shows and plan to hand them out with labels on them at a vendor event this coming weekend! The labels you made are great! Thanks for sharing them!
 
I print directly onto the recipe cards on my laser printer (tried with the inject but they smudged) - Linda Child posted templates a while back but I can post them if anyone needs.
 
Carolyn, would you mind posting the file? I'd love to try it on the bunches of recipes cards that I have!
 


Hi there! That's a great idea to use recipe cards as business cards. Not only will it showcase your cooking skills, but it's also a unique way to promote your business. Thank you for sharing your labels, I will definitely use them as inspiration for my own business cards. Have a successful and delicious day!
