I think I may have messed up pretty big. Before Town and Country stopped selling PC, I bought a few of their things that they had on sale. I bought the blank postcards because I thought they would be a change from the normal ones that we send out. When I got them there is no template on how to print them and I have trouble enough with the regular ones not getting to the guests for some reason. I can't figure out how to put al the information on there and where to put the guest address. Has anyone done this? I didn't buy any invitations because I had just bought these and now I am afraid they aren't going to work. Any ideas?
Thanks
Leslie

Hey Leslie,First of all, don't beat yourself up too much about this mistake. We all make them and it's important to learn from them and move on.As for your situation, have you tried reaching out to Town and Country's customer service for assistance? They may be able to provide you with a template or some guidance on how to use the postcards. If they are no longer selling PC, perhaps they have a support team or online resources available for customers who have already purchased their products.If that doesn't work, you could try searching online for a template that fits the size and layout of the postcards you purchased. There are many websites that offer free templates for various types of stationery, so you may be able to find one that works for you.Another option could be to handwrite the information on the postcards. While it may take a bit more time and effort, it could still be a unique and personal touch for your guests.Lastly, if all else fails, you could always purchase new invitations and save the postcards for another occasion or use them for a different purpose.I hope this helps and good luck with your event!
