Newbie with REALLY stupid question. . .

[Lisa S.]

Hi all,

I've been browsing this board and I'm blown away by the stuff that you all make - you all are awesome!!!

My stupid question is this: Does anyone have any designs for mousekeeping envelopes that I can just open up in Word and then click print and they will print onto regular sized envelopes? All of the ones that I have found are not formatted to print on envelopes, if that makes sense. (And don't discount the fact that I may just be looking in the wrong place or missing things!)

Any help is appreciated, and sorry for being so dense.

Not stupid! I don't know that either!

I could be wrong but I think Natalie's envelopes print on a regular envelope

I thought they were meant to be folded and glued together to make an envelope. Most of them have fold lines on them to show you how to put it together.

Thanks, Mel. I guess I'm asking the wrong question then because I tried those and they didn't work. I guess now I need to ask, how do I get Natalie's envelope designs to print on regular envelopes???

Thanks, I saw those, but I want to use regular envelopes.

Natalie's are meant for regular envelopes.

There are two places that she has envelopes:
1. photobucket:

2. 4shared file in both mailing envelopes and mousekeeping envelopes files:
http://www.4shared.com/dir/5978989/a06aa930/Natalies_DISigns.html

First, you will have to open up a word document.

Then go to "file" and "pages setup"
1. in the "margins" tab set the margins all to .56 and the orientation to "landscape" (helpful hint: most comptuers will not print all the way to the edge unless the print job is setup as a photo...and that envelope size recommends .56 for one of the margins so that is why I said to put .56 for all of the margins so that the image will center)
2. in the "paper" tab click on the down arrow in the first box and look for the "no. 10 envelope 9.5x4.13 inch" which is the size of a regular mailing envelope
3. then copy and paste the largest image from photobucket or insert picture if you have saved them to your "my pictures" in Word
4. click on the image and hit the "center" tab in your toolbar
5. if you are happy with the way the image looks...insert your envelope in the printer and hit print

Hope that works for you!
