thank you

So I made some something. <3 I love my rounded-corner punch! I finally picked one up while I was in town at OfficeMax. This has got to be one of best inventions ever.

These are a set of thank you cards I made today to send out (as thanks for birthday gifts). They're made of bright neon cardstock, and the front of the card has tracing paper overlayed on top which I printed "thank you" on in biiiig letters. Now I just need envelopes for these things.

Also, a question. I took some photographs that I plan to use on holiday cards this year:

I was wondering if anyone has printed out their own photo cards? I was hoping to do borderless printing, but I think that will be out.. so I'm just wondering, what would be the best way to print these so that my photos will be perfectly centered on the front of the card? I'm starting off with regular photo paper, which I will be cutting in half (to measure 8.5" x 5.5") -- which will fold in half to be cards. I've tried various settings on Photoshop and such, but the printer tends to make margins uneven anyway, even if I set them the same on the print settings. Also, what photo paper do you all recommend?
