They are very pretty.
 
Very cute! :)
I think that you need to have the registered trademark symbol (r in a circle) next to the words "The Pampered Chef".

I can't remember the exact keystrokes to insert it though -- sorry. I know that if you go up to insert and then symbol you can pick it off of the window that pops up there.
 
Good job, Rae. I agree that the butterfly one is easier to read. With the typo corrected, they both look good, though.
 
(R) is what you type for the registered trademark.

These are beautiful!
 
® Or hold down the Alt key while you type 0174 on the number pad.
 
ANN!!!! :eek: Thanks for the tip! I love learning new stuff and I'll be darned it works!:p Wahooo! Cool! :cool: Thanks!:D
 
• = alt + 0149 (nice separator between info on a card: emailaddress@address • phone xxx-xxx-xxxx)
® = alt + 0174
° = alt + 0176 (great if you're typing out a recipe, you can indicate degrees with the actual degree symbol)
 
I love the butterfly one! Nice choice of fonts.:)
And, thanks to Anne for the tricks. I only knew the ® one.:o :eek:
Are there any others?;)
 
Oh, I there are lots, but I'm on my laptop now, and it doesn't have a number pad. Just type 4-digit numbers while holding the alt key and see what comes up!I looked, and I can't find a list right now. I'm sure I have a book with those codes someplace, though.
 
They look great! I SO need to make some up. YIKES! Another thing for the "to do for PC list"!!

I am ALWAYS trying to remember how to do the ® ( I usually end up trying a bunch of random #'s) And I did not know about the other 2! Thanks! I wrote them all down!
