Summary: 2003 Deluxe, Flawed program.
Review: I upgraded from Card Studio Deluxe to 2003 Deluxe for the address book. I do alot of mail merge but when you print lables or envelopes it prints the last name twice instead of Mr. & Mrs. (last name). Going to Sierra support I found many people with the same problem. Sierra says there is no fix and is refunding my money. There are also less options for lable sizes and, when printing envelopes, it prints in the same place no matter how you put the settings. Also, I cannot cut or delete the Hallmark graphics on the back of the cards.
I'm very dissapointed with this product and Hallmark for selling this program with a known flaw and no patch.

Summary: This is a nice, simple change from more involved programs
Review: I use several different home publishing programs. Some of them you want to use whenever you are striving for something involved and creative;some of them you choose to create a quick and lovely personal greeting. This program falls into that category. It has some lovely artwork, some beautiful messages and offers more creativity than the previous versions of the same program. Buy it. You will like it.

Summary: Hallmark Card Studio Deluxe 2003
Review: I was expecting an availibity of calendars, cards that you could insert your own pictures in... I haven't found any of that. I think it's a cheap replication of Microsoft's "Greeting" production that I wish I had bought.

Summary: CardStudio2003Deluxe
Review: I was very happy with the upgrades to this program. The art work was easy to use and I would recommend it to my friends. It is much improved over the other Hallmark versions.

Summary: Decent until the end . .
Review: I've owned ALL of the past Card Studio products and each time a new one comes out I purchase it to get a little variety in my cards/invitations.

This time, things are completely revamped from the other versions which isn't necessarily a bad thing. There's more flexibility in what you can do, although some things still need a little bit of work.

The one thing that takes this from a 4-5 star package all the way down to a 2 for me is the fact that you CANNOT get rid of the Hallmark and Card Studio logo's on the back of the cards you make. This makes the back of your cards COMPLETELY useless. The logos are large and you cannot cover them with anything but a black box. Placing any box or graphic on them means they will be moved in front of the graphic you are placing. I don't know about you, but I often use the back of the cards for something especially when I make invitations where I will place a map to a party on the back.

Bottom line, its a great program if you can live with someone else's advertisment on all of your publications. If not, then look for an old copy or another program.

Summary: Disappointed
Review: If you already had Hallmark Card Studio 2...you do not need the 2003 version...not much has been added. PLUS you cannot get rid of the icons on the back of your card that you want to create.
I thought I was doing something wrong and wrote to the help division. The 2003 version has permanent icons. You cannot create your own card. No more Hallmark for me!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Hallmark has it all!!
Review: Infinite choices in card designs and the opportunity to customize those designs to your personal taste make this a super program. I am a novice computer user and found this software very simple and intuitive. Projects such as custom labels and special purpose printing are included. The art studio feature allows almost complete freedom to edit and tailor all the projects to meet nearly any need. Hallmark papers may be used, but I found that generic and Avery brand cards and labels worked just fine. I would recommend this software to anyone--I don't think that I will need to wait in line to buy a card anytime soon.
