+Elzy5 Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 My first time Geo caching I seen some people using business type cards to drop in the container. What a great idea! I am designing mine and would like ideas on what info to put on them. Any ideas would be helpful. Thanks. Quote Link to comment

I used one a while back, the problem is if they get wet the ink runs (I used an ink jet printer) and they turn to mush. Quote Link to comment

Where you live (city), how long you've been caching, how many finds/hides, motto, favorite cache, things like that. And include something kinda useful like a ROT13 decoder, or a "Geocaching License" or whatever, so maybe people will want to keep it. If you can draw a little picture on each one, that could make them much more desirable. And print it on plastic so it doesn't get soaked. Edited September 30, 2013 by kunarion Quote Link to comment
+T.D.M.22 Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 We have cards for the local geocaching club. One side has the name (SEARCH) and the website, and the other has dates for our annual event. They where printed professionally from one of those online websites. Something like $10 for 100 or 200 cards. The ink stayed when they got damp, but I can't speak for what happens when they get soaked. My experience with other card when they get soaked is that they become mush and nasty. Quote Link to comment
+Elzy5 Posted September 30, 2013 Author Share Posted September 30, 2013 Yes. I plan on using vistaprint and getting plastic. Great ideas. Thanks. Quote Link to comment
+thomfre Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 I've used VistaPrint, and my card looks like this: Quote Link to comment
+ras_oscar Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 If you choose to put5 paper into a cache, be sure its in a small xlock bag to keep it dry. Michael's or other craft stores have a selection orf vartious sizes with the bead supplies. Quote Link to comment
