There should be room to fill in 3 lines at the bottom right.

I also have the VistaPrint-ready version if anyone needs it.

If you don't mind posting the Vista I would like to use it.

thanks,

Carol
 
Awesome Joy!!! That's why we love you!
 
Joy, you rock!But when I try to download the PDF from TT.net, I'm getting the same "file is corrupted" error that some folks were getting last week.
 
These are beautiful!

Thanks Joy!

I can't post the VistaPrint ready version -- too large! If you email me, I will send it to you as an attachment. I will eventually get them loaded on TTConnect for downloading.
 
These are Wonderful!! Thank you SO much!!
 
I can't open it.:cry:
 
does anyone know why I can open it, but it wont let me save it..it says in the form it's in, I can only print it for my records????
 
Joy,
I am not at home and would like you to e-mail me the vista print file. I am a member of tasty tid bits, so if you've already posted it don't worry about e-mailing it to me.

I could be wrong...since I am not THE MOST tech savvy person...but I think if all you have is Adobe Acrobat (PDF) Reader then you can fill in the blank space but you can't save. If you have a full PDF software then you would be able to make changes, save the changes, etc.
I hope that helps you out...and I hope I am at least semi right?!!:rolleyes:
 
Any chance you (or someone) could make a Canadian version?? :)
 
Thanks, Joy! I just ordered my cards from VistaPrint (gotta love the emails with free postcards AND free uploads).
 
How do you do the upload?
 
When you go to the site and pick an item (postcards in this instance), there's a choice to "upload full design" next to the "browse our designs" selection. Click the "upload" choice, and then there'll be a button to "choose file." Clicking that will open a window that allows you to browse to the file on your computer. There is a $5 charge (well, $4.99) to upload an image. Sometimes the sale emails include free uploads - that's what I used.This link has a free upload and free postcards: http://ebm.e.vistaprint.com/c/tag/hBJvjX1AZdBOAB7gJ1KA-UWmc8g/[email protected]
 
so I need to save it to my computer so how then right. The psd doesn't work on my computer but I do have adobe photoshop so I don't understand why.
 
Ok, blondie figured it out :)

Ok do you get these offers in email or am I missing something?? Haha I'm totally not trying to stalk you but this is great.
 
Okay, so I'm going to join Joy's service so I can see these HWC postcards...right? Because of the changes she had to do, it's not free to see her fliers and such, correct?
 
I do get their emails. At least 3 a week. :rolleyes: And they all say "Act now!" but they're usually good for 2 weeks or so. And you can't order from 2 offers in the same order. So I usually make a list of things I need, and then place an order from the offer that covers the most of the list.

Correct. :)
 
Thanks Ann, and just for that I'll put you down as my referral. :D
 
Thanks! Although I use my [email protected] email address for them, not my CS (or PC) one.And, yes, I'm one of those nerds who has 5 email addresses.
 
It just asks for the name, not the e-mail address...I hope I did it right. :)

Oh ok good to know. You can order from the same offer multiple times, though right?
 
What are you putting on the back of the postcard??
 
Hmm, I downloaded the VistaPrint HWC file, (I don't have Photoshop so I can't view it), but I when I went on Vista Print where it says to put the file name for uploading but the file is grayed out and it won't let me select it. Boy I am such a beginner at this stuff. Can someone walk me through this?

I put a brief blurb about "contact me to order or host" with my info. I worded it better. :)

There should be a "browse" button next to the field for the file name. Click that button and it will open a windows explorer-like button that will allow you to navigate your computer to find it.
