I ordered mine from Zazzle today, and I ordered some to trade by snail mail too.

Mine arrived today!! I think they turned out really cute!! Just don't look too closely...they are slightly off-center...but I think that's my fault because I was having trouble with Zazzle's printing template gridlines

Are you sure it's your fault? I am going to have a look at their site later and see what I think. I got my first one in the mail from Silly (Priscilla) and it is awesome! Even tho I am not going to get to go to Convention I want to order a bunch for this mailing thing I hope is going to be approved for us to use all year whenever we feel as if someone needs a little happiness coming in the form of snail mail. I get so little snail mail anymore and I am delighted when I do. I was so happy to get Silly's ATC and it is just beautiful. I thought they would be nice to mail to someone who is going through tough times or even good times just to let them know I am thinking about them - and then when we see something on the Prayers and Praise, we could do more than just post our thoughts to them. Still haven't gotten the go ahead yet because it would mean addresses being given out but so far the responses I have gotten, NO ONE seems to mind that at all. I know SG protects that info for us and for that I am grateful, but if we are comfortable with it, then I don't know why it would be a problem and we could certainly be selective as to who we give our address to. What do you think? I need some support here!

Sara - Zazzle has buttons to center your graphic on the card; one for vertical centering and one for horizontal centering. I used those buttons. When my cards arrive, I will let you know if they are off center or not. I expect to have them by the end of the week.

On the snail mail idea, I am 100 percent with you. We could work it like the Christmas card swap. Everyone who signed up for the swap PM'd their snail mail address to the administrator. The administrator emailed the snail mail address list to the people who signed up. Then we all mailed our Christmas cards to each other. Some only emailed to save on postage, and that was ok, too. I really think this could be done easily.

I had another idea, couldn't scrapgirls allow our home address to be seen by our friends? Wouldn't that be cool. Then anyone we confirmed as friend could see our snail mail address and send us a card if they wanted. There is a solution, Sara. You have a great idea. Don't give up hope my friend. It will happen.

I would so come see you, if I had the vacation time. I could talk to you for hours. Perhaps in the spring I can work it out to come and visit.

I finished my cards and ordered them from Zazzle yesterday. Can't wait to see how they turn out.

I'm so excited for you Kay and Gayle! I can't wait to exchange cards in SLC

My ATCs arrived from Zazzle yesterday. The quaility is really nice!
There is a teeny tiny bleed area showing on one edge (I used a frame around the design, and extended the background paper to fill all the space), and oddly enough, it's the same on both sides, so if I were really really picky, I could trim it off. But I'm not going to!

I like the playing card finish - sure couldn't get that on my home printer.
And they come in a cute little plastic "box"

Maybe I've missed this, but, how many ATCs did everyone order??

[scrappinchar]

I ordered 3 packs. What's in a deck of cards? 52? 54? So...a tad over 150, I guess.

[Brandy M]

I ordered 2 packs of 52.

[Peppi]

Zazzle should give a special discount for all these ATCs ordered with them. Can't wait to exchange Ladies. I printed 160 minus the few I cut off badly ugh .... Hoping big that convention will be sold out (+/- 126 spots plus team) and I need them all! WoooHooo!

[pennynoel]

I ordered 100. I had about 150 last year and had a lot leftover, so I went with 100.

[scrappinchar]

I didn't read back through this thread or the other ATC thread, but I know in one of them I told someone I'd post my ATC. (Or somewhere I told someone... )
So, here it is.

Had fun making it.
