My interpretation of using the logo on CC is that we can use it for our own homemade items (as long as we're not giving it to another printer to put on something). If they did not want us to use it, I don't think they would put it on CC for us to download.

Thanks Rebecca! I thought the same thing. I printed over 130 of them so it's too late now!:p
 
My understanding is we can't use the Chef Hat ALONE without the rest of the logo, which has the copywright symbol.
 
Linda -- I'm not sure if anybody did this yet, but I sorta changed the hair color to blonde (well yellow anyways) and put it in a word doc. Hopefully you like it and don't mind me borrowing it :D :rolleyes:

I love it! thanks for changing it. I don't mind you borrowing it at all. :)
 
Great Job Alison!!!:D Do they have one for brown hair and blonde highlights? :)
 
When I started my business I got an email address especially for business that I would never have to change (ex:Juno & it's free if you are on less than 10hrs a month) I also got a cell phone and that is what goes on all my business cards/materials. I knew when we were mooving it would not be far so it would not be a big deal. I have no street address on anything I give out to people. I do now have one stamp that has my town on it. Otherwise only my hosts get my home add & PH#. It has worked out great for me. The cell phone is also great because we have dial up and since I spend way too much time on CS my cust. can still get ahold of me! :D

Here are a few things to consider:

Many of us don't list our addresses because this is information that is not needed by our customers. I do have the town that I live in but even that's not necessary.

I added my Consultant # after we had some ordering opportunties that required our customers to have this number.

If you have a website, you may not want to list your email address. Your website address probably will not change but occasionally you'll want to change your email service and then you'd need to change your cards.
 
I forgot to say all your cards are awesome. I also made my own up till a few months ago and splurged on the merril ones.

Unfortunately if I tried this one using Paint your character would turn up with leopard hair... I, not my program, am skilled enough for that one... let me know if you're up for a leopard one though; I'm game if you are :D :p :rolleyes:

That's hilarious Alison!! Let's see it!!!:D
 
So it's more like Elvira or a brown and yellow zebra than a leopard... but it made me laugh :D

I love the cards I've seen ... especially Kristi's.

One small problem ... If I try to print biz cards from anything other than avery.com, they don't line up right on my printer. Anybody know how I can format them to go down about 1/4 or 1/8 of an inch?
 
Adjust the top margin in Word. Increase it to move the cards down the page.
 
ok, first post! I've really nervous about posting anything...but I love business cards so here's mine.
They are perforated in the middle so I can write contact information down and actually keep it! I am horrible at writing stuff down and then remembering where and when and who. lol

I work for Staples, I'm a manager in the Copy Center...I print them on glossy business card stock. You could buy matte or glossy cardstock at any office supply store and print them. oh, and thanks for telling me what you think about them! :D

I don't have Publisher. Can anybody convert it? I have Microsoft Office. Thanx.

Go to the Microsoft website and search for Publisher ... it should pop up with several options, including a download for the free Publisher reader. That would at least allow you to open the file. Then you could replicate it manually into another format.

You can even download a trial version of Publisher and after it expires, you will continue to be able to use the viewer.
 
Here's mine. Improving it too.
