How To: Print on cardstock shape

My friend Tracy showed me how to print on cardstock when I had a certain area to work with. Actually what I was working on at the time was a recipe swap and I wanted to print the recipe on a denim pocket I had cut with the Cricut. I didn't know if everyone knew of this little trick so I thought I would make a video tutorial.

    I loved that you were on The Pink Stamper. Thanks for the tip. I use text boxes on the plain paper and then remove the lines when I print on the card stock. I was soooo excited when I discovered this.

    Hi Okie,

    I notice you have the Kodak printer. I have the 5500 and am on my third replacement due to color issues. It printed fine for the first few months then I had to replace the cartridge and bam issues started. After 2 printheads later, Kodak sent me two replacement printers because the colors were just off. Red always seems like orange. What is your opinion of this printer? Have you had any issues with print quality? Curious if you like it or not and if you would buy another.

    Thanks,

    Jackie I have had printer head issues. Kodak was quick to replace them but I just don't like the idea of having to do it over and over. I doubt I will buy another one unless this issue is resolved. Not sure what printer I will get next. I do like that the ink is cheaper but not for the printing problems it gives sometimes.

    Thanks Okie for getting back with me. Sorry you also had issues, but definately solidifies my decision to buy a new printer to know I'm not the only one going through issues with it.

    Love your videos, have fun at your swarm.

    You're gonna laugh at me. . . I've been doing this since I've been scrapping, but I've used those pop up post-its (the ones you use to tag pages with) I think they call them flags. Anyway, I would have to be realy careful about positioning them so they did get in the way of the print, etc. I NEVER THOUGHT OF REPOSITIONALABLE TAPE!!!!!!!!!! THANK YOU, OKIE! I can't believe I was that stoopid! LOL !!!! You're my hero!

    I never thought of using repositionable tape, I always use painter's tape to hold it on. Thanks. And I love another person that uses the Kodak printer, I love mine.
