a really dumb question. like really

kathymarie

What kind of pen should I be using for my thank yous? I have hear a black ball point and a blue. Does it matter? Should I be using a nicer pen?

I um...used a purple pen in most of the TY cards. lol

Really you are totally over thinking this one. I think I used a regular pen I cannot stand gel pens. I also like fine point! I would use black though.

I love my sharpie pen so I will probably use that!  Sorry no help

I will use whatever pen I am closest to.  Although I do prefer blue pens.

kathymarie

Black ball point it is! Thank you writing about to commence!

mscutieri

So did you end up getting them fixed/reprinted?

I just wrote out some TY notes from gifts we received before the wedding and I used whatever pen I could grab. I do tend to write in black though since I'm forced to for work.

I prefer blue ink. and the papermate ones with the tops. Those are the best. I don't think it matters!

and you say I over think things...you're done with bride brain get with it!

kathymarie

LMAO Cheryl! I so deserved that one   Yes, we reordered and changed them a bit... a $100 more than the original. *Sigh*

cherylanddan0706

Teehee! I finally had a chance to get you after weeks of the dumbest questions from me! You put me in my place though. Bride brain is in full effect. Now show us the damn cards!

kathymarie

It happens... we all want to do such a good job, that it's easy to second guess yourself. Case in point, this post. I can't show you the card, shutterfly wasnt letting me swipe a copy and I simply cannot muster the strength to take a pic and upload it. 12 down, over a hundred to go! Back to the sweatshop for me!

All you have to do is take a screen shot woman!  Open it up on your screen, hit the PrtSc button on your keyboard, and "paste it" into powerpoint or photoshop or something so you can save it and post!You can't talk about it and not show!!! :0P

kathymarie

I'll try that... Standby

cherylanddan0706

Ahh I gave up on it, but Michelle came to the rescue!

kathymarie

Ok, obviously the quality is horrendo... and the blue is more navy in person and less royal blue.

cherylanddan0706

Oh I likey Kathy!  Very nice!

kathymarie

Thanks!

mscutieri

Oh that it really nice!  I'll have to remember to do the same kind of thing when it's my turn.  I don't think I've ever recieved a nice thank you card like that from a wedding -- I'm glad you were able to get them re-done.

kathymarie

Thanks! We returned the others, had the card credited while ordering the others. The quality is good.
