etiquette? re: TY notes for baptism

my TY notes for C's baptism are finally getting delivered tonite.  would it be bad if i typed my TY notes on labels and stuck them onto the cards? it would be signed from C (not big C (me) but little C (siggy))....

i usually type out what i say anyways before i hand write it on thank you cards..but i know that if i do that it would take me FOREVER to write all the cards and was hoping to get them all done and mailed by Thursday the latest...

i have about 35 ty cards to write..should i just suck it up and handwrite them all? What do you think?

TIA

    My personal opinion, all thank you cards should be handwritten.

    Just try to tackle five a day and you will be done in no time!

    I would hand write them all. I definitely think that if someone took the time to shop and buy something that you should handwrite the thank you.  (Sorry - not trying to be rude).   you could write the exact same thing in every card...just change what the gift is.    eg Dear XXX  Thank you so much for coming to XXX's batism and for the (GIFT).  It was so great to have you there to experience this great moment in XXX's life.  I know that XXX will really appreciate (GIFT) in the coming (year/month/life).  Hope to see you again soon, love, xyz

    Nobody said life would be easy, they just promised it would be worth it.

    I am sort of a stickler about ty notes, so I would handwrite them even if they took you a little longer.  Have DH help!

    thanks ladies for making me do the right thing and not cop out!  you are right, if they took the time to get c a present then i should take the time to write the note.no worries because i needed to be "talked to". i will even personalize each note and not do a generic one (come to think of it, i dont think i've ever done a generic one??? ok maybe on a few hehehe)

     again thanks so much!
