Hwy 112, Springdale, AR 72762-9303 Ken's Korner Tip Add Professional Look To Your Greeting Cards Many computer owners use various software programs and inkjet printers to create their own greeting cards. It's fun, and people who receive them seem to appreciate the effort made to produce customized cards made especially for them. My wife Liz and I have been designing our own greeting cards for years and look constantly for new ways to make them even more attractive and professional-looking We've tried various paper stocks, generally favoring card stocks in the 55- to 65-lb. range. Recently we found one from Wausau that is a real winner! It is called Exact Bristol and it is a medium card stock (67-lb) with semi-smooth finish. It costs under $10 for 250 sheets and comes in several colors, including blue, ivory, yellow, gray and more. Every store might not stock all colors but you're likely to find ivory, which makes very attractive cards. The semi-smooth stock works best with clipart. For cards that feature photos you should use Bristol smooth stock or a glossy photo paper. - Ken Fermoyle
