Rose,
This is interesting. It sounds as if you were at the genesis of the direct printing industry.
:-)
How did you feed the ribbon through your printer? Did you attach them to a thin carrier sheet?

I laid the ribbons out in Corel on a regular sheet of typing paper. 3 across. Then I printed out onto the paper just the outlines. I did this on about 10 pieces of paper. I cut the ribbons longer than what I needed and taped them to the paper with a tiny piece of double sided tape very near the edge of the top and bottom of the paper. I deleted the border of the ribbon layout from the drawing, put the sheets in the feeder tray and printed. In my drawing I made a very small line across the top and bottom where I would cut with the pinking shears. After printing I would pull the ribbon off and leave the tape on the paper. I could re-use that little piece of tape a lot of times without having to change it.
