There are many different types of personalized stationery that you can choose from, and many styles that you can use as a starting point or you can totally design your own. There are many online stores that offer personalized stationery designs, from templates where all you need to do is add your personal information to more broad templates where you can add your own design, to the extreme where you design the stationery from start to finish. Personalized stationery is a great way to say thank you to your friends and family, whether for gifts they have given you, for their presence at your special occasion, as a thank you for their attendance at a funeral or just as a "thank you for being you" or for "being there".

Personalized stationery is much more than just paper. Stationery includes:

Writing paper
Note cards
Envelopes
Address labels
Memo sheets
Note sized sheets

You can really personalize a thank you to friends and family by utilizing personalized stationery instead of store bought plain note cards or thank you cards. By adding that extra special touch to your thank you cards, you are really showing your friends and family that you care and are thoughtful about what they did for you or gave you.

It does not take much extra to choose personalized stationery; there are many pre-designed templates to choose from where all you have to do is add your name and/or address. Even these less time consuming choices for personalized stationery will make an impact on your friends and family when they receive your thank you note.

Of course, you can go "all out" and choose everything about your personalized stationery and really make it one of a kind and your very own. Ordering an entire set of personalized stationery, including pens, pencils, stamp dispensers and memo dispensers will even make you feel better about writing personalized thank you letters and notes to friends and family.

Having your own personalized stationery may very well mean that you will remember to send out thank you cards and notes to your friends, family and acquaintances because you will not have to search for note cards or thank you cards or go out and purchase them. You will already have them available and are more likely to then just send them out than forget all about it.

Choosing personalized stationery can involve your personality as well. Choose any color of paper and note cards that you like, as well as the font, and clip art or photos to match, as well as matching envelopes, note cards and even return address labels. This will complete the overall package of stationery and thank you notes that you will be sending off.

Personalized stationery is perfect for thank you notes and cards to your friends and family; it shows that little extra consideration that you took the time to write out a thank you on special paper. Personalized stationery also adds an air of sophistication to your note sending as well, recipients will know that you took the extra time to use special paper instead of pre-made thank you cards and they will appreciate the extra effort.

When you are looking for a website that offers personalized stationery, browse through the templates that they have available already. Many websites will offer quite a few templates to choose from as well as the option of personalizing those templates further with paper color and type choices, as well as font choices.

Consider the style that you want to go for, formal or informal, funny or serious. If you want formal looking stationery, you will want to stay away from most clip art and stay with script fonts. Mostly, for thank you cards you will want to stay closer to formal, but that does not mean you can have funny, informal thank you cards as well to send out. If funny and informal is more your personal style, then go ahead and choose a more informal type of stationery, as long as you like it and think it reflects on you and your personality, anything goes!

Have some fun with your personalized stationery, order formal and informal stationery, add a little extra flair and have some fun with colors, clip art and font choices.

Communicating with friends, family and co-workers by using personalized stationary adds a special touch. In a world of emails and text messaging, sending out hand-written letters can personally and sincerely get your message across. Sending out letters on personalized stationary is a great way to set yourself apart from others, as well as your messages. Kind words written on personalized stationary will often be saved and even displayed in the recipient's home.
