How about the color of the ink or the font or the size of the envelope if we are going to stay to just the letter..

if so, what font did you use to replicate the red ink from a Sharpie?

I do just plain white or I use white loose leaf paper with a blue handwriting font.

With that same "handwritten but obviously computer generated" font? 

It allows for the black font to pop off the paper much better and is less overwhelming than say a red.

Not by a business card.Don’t sweat the title, color, font, photo, email address, or anything else.

I also went to a font on both the envelope and letter.

I also posted a font file...Good luck and happy house huntingMichael

First, I created a font with my own handwriting.Then, I ordered invitation style envelopes that I will print myself using the handwritten font.I ordered some multi-colored filler paper, college ruled, just like notebook paper you use at school.
