Author: Wes | Filed under: FREE Stationery, Training Monday Jan 16,2012Hi Valentines Day Love Letter Fans!
Just finished uploading 3 “Brand New” Valentines Day Stationery for your download pleasure at: www.Free-Stationery.com
I know you’ll love these and the others that are already there.
They are in both 8.5×11 and A4 sizes and come as .jpg, .pdf and in Microsoft Word .dot template formats.
Remember, a personal letter to your loved one is 100 times better than any card or box of chocolates could ever be. It’s the thought that really counts and taking the time to tell someone in detail how much they really mean to you is by far the best way to show how much your really care.
Here’s to making this the best Valentines Day you ever had!

Valentines Day Love Letter Stationery FREE Downloads
Author: Wes | Filed under: FREE Stationery, Site Information, Training Friday Jan 13,2012It’s that time of the year again people,
Valentines Day is just around the corner. I know, you just finished with the big holiday season, but this may be the biggest holiday of your year… that is for anyone that has someone special in their lives!
Let’s face it, cards and a box of chocolates or flowers just say I didn’t have time to do anything special for you, but at least I remembered the day.
On the other hand, a hand written love letter (or one done on the computer) that takes the time to tell them just how special they really are and how much they mean to you…
Well, I don’t have to tell you just how much that will mean to them and just how much they will brag to all their friends and family of how much you really care. They say that the fine are of the love letter is lost! We all know that that is a myth, what has been lost is loved ones taking the actual time to compose and really personalize their letters to loved ones.
Let’s actually take the time this year and document in writting, just what that special someone means to you. The memories and love you preserve in writing will come back to you 100 times over! That’s a promise!
Here’s to making this the Valentines Day they will never forget,
Kathy and Wes
P.S. Our FREE Valentines Day Stationery also make for great Scavenger Hunt Checklists to your heart and …?

Free Christmas Stationery in A3 Size Question
Author: Wes | Filed under: FREE Stationery, Training Saturday Nov 26,2011Hi everyone,
Had a great question from Viv in Spain who was using our Christmas Holiday free stationery downloads for signs and posters in their Children’s Cancer Fund Raising Charity.
Viv wanted to know if she could have the 8.5×11 or A4 sized holiday stationery printed in an A3 format size?
The answer is yes, but it’s going to take some page modifications to do it. For those of you that are familier with Microsoft Word editing, it probably will be fairly easy. For those that are not well versed in MS Word, it’s going to take a little more effort to learn how it’s done.
Here’s the short version:
First, I found that the 8.5×11 size is better to size at the A3 format as the A4 format is quite a bit narrower and the figures and graphics don’t look as good when resized. You may want to experiment on your own to see what you like better.
I downloaded and opened the 8.5×11 Christmas Holiday stationery she wanted and then used the “File”, Page Setup menu and set the paper size to Custom 11.7×16.5 inches. That’s the A3 size in inches. Newer versions of Word may come with the A3 option already there, mine did not.
Once that was done, you’ll find that the graphics no longer fit the page.
Go into the View – Header/Footer view and click on the graphic so that it is outlined for resizing. You may need to shrink it slightly first to get all 4 corners to show on the page. Don’t worry if all the graphic is not in view, we’ll tackle that last. As long as it’s outlined you are good to go.
Now, grab the lower right corner and drag it to size the width of the page. Next, grab the bottom middle (small square) and drag the size to fit the bottom.
Now, if you look at the top margin bar, you’ll see that the white viewable area is smaller than the page. Use your mouse to drag the right side of the white margin all the way to the right side and you’ll see the rest of your graphic come into view. Don’t tough the left margin or the small right side margin triangle as they are set in page view, not border view.
Now, just close the header/footer view and set your margine areas and adjust the header/footer margines if needed.
You are all set to go and most of our graphic images will look just great at this size for you.
For those of you that are not that good with Microsoft Word and are working for a charity, school or other non profit, just drop me a line and I’ll be happy to help you get what you need and even formate a couple of stationery pages for you and email them direct should you need that.
Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah and Happy Kwanza everyone!

These glorious insults are from an era before the English language got boiled down to 4-letter words.

Scrapbook Photo Calendar How To Class
Author: Wes | Filed under: FREE Stationery, Training Wednesday Sep 7,2011I’m thinking of teaching a free class at our local library on how to create scrapbook photo calendars for Christmas, Kwanza, Hanukkah, etc. gifts. The class would be free, the templates would be free from our www.FreeScrapbookTraining.com site and the software would be free from our www.ComputerScrapbookTraining.com 101 course. All they would have to do is print them on their own printer or take them to a photo store such as Wal-Mart or Target for printing.
What do you think?
Good idea or what?
