I'm looking at typewriters for our elf to leave notes for the kids. I mean, if I'm going to indulge in one cutesy trend, why not combine it with another, right?
I'd like to think I could use it a little for scrapbooking too but does the ink last? I hesitate to print pictures from my home printer for this reason too. Am I clinging to antiquated teachings from a Creativr Memories class 16 years ago?

Text printed on your home printer will last just as long as the photos!
Print it on cardstock that you would scrapbook with and it will be just fine.

My kids would be on to the computer thing. I'm glad to know what about the printer though!
