optimistic/pessimistic valentines

Prototypes of the optimist/pessimist Valentine's Day cards I'm going to make for 2005. I need to probably re-photoshop the cards because I had them sized to print on 3" x 5" index cards, but it turns out my printer can't handle paper that small (smallest width has to be 3.54"), and i can only do borderless printing on three different sizes (two of which are 4x6 or 8.5x11)..
Anyway, I printed the four of these on a single sheet of paper, which I think might be cardstock, but I'm really not sure since I just grabbed it from a stack of mixed papers in my closet. They're from a set I'm doing of optimistic and pessimistic messages.
Details behind the lj-cut.
The optimistic cards need some work, but they include cards that say things like:
"you and me" sounds nice, but..
"you under me" sounds better.
i don't want to spend this day with anyone
EXCEPT YOU
And the pessimistic cards say things along the lines of:
it's valentine's day
HOW COME YOU NEVER CALLED ME BACK
you are amazing
but the sex, not so much
Anyway, here are photos of the ones that printed out. They need to be adjusted for different printing sizes (I'll probably make them a little bigger) and stuff.. but that's what prototypes are for.
