Hi John,
I use Publisher, and creae my own and print them on card stock.  My wife then cuts them out. She likes doing this rather than using the premade business card paper.  The perferated edges don't show up.  I often tell her I can have them printed, but she insists on helping, she's awesome!  

I'm looking forward to the training offered by the chapter.  I'm also hoping to do anything I can to be of help to them.
