Re: labels for seeds
Toby
Getting clip art or a picture on each label is where I am having problems.
I think someone suggested last year that printmaster gold or some type of
label software is good to use. I downloaded Avery Wizard and its easier to
use than plain Microsoft word but still can not paste or insert a picture
onto each label.
