I'd love to hear your thoughts! Thanks so much! |
You really should get a color printer. They are not real expensive now and I have found that I can't live without it now that I can use SU's RGB colors and get the exact color needed for the fonts. But in stead of getting a printer for now, if you have a friend that has a color printer, then you could ask her to do them for you. What pink cardstock are you using? Is it SU. If it is, then I suggest that you give your friend that has a color printer a 4 of sheets of the pink and have her use a program like address labels that will print 30 names to a page. If the chocolate ink is SU Chocolate Chip then the RGB colors would be:
R: 115
G: 87
B: 86
I don't know what your card looks like, but you would then have to cut the names and attach to card instead of printing right on the card. You could use a chocolate layer then the name on that. Just a suggestion.
If you have any more questions or can help in any way, just let me know.
