Design a Personal Check That Showcases Your Individuality

Tired of writing boring, traditional checks that don’t reflect who you are? Then it’s time to personalize a check that fits your personality. Leave your standard, dull bank checks behind and log online today to create affordable custom checks!

The Perfect Design

How often have you ordered overpriced checks from your local bank, only to wait a week or more for a box of blah checkbooks? Creating custom checks doesn’t have to be hard – in fact, it’s easy to exercise your creativity without burdening your wallet. And you can create your checkbooks in minutes and receive them in just days. Start by selecting or creating the ideal design. Vistaprint makes it easy for you by offering dozens of checkbook design templates. All you have to do is decide which full-color template best suits your personality. From conservative and elegant to floral, fun and modern there’s sure to be a design that expresses who you are. And don’t worry – if a traditional, monochromatic checkbook is more your style feel free to select it.

Be Unique

Now that you’ve chosen a checkbook design that fits your personality, it’s time to have some fun. Play around with the selection of fonts to find the perfect match for your design. You can even add icons in a variety of shapes from various categories depending on your interests. Your checks are sure to stand out with this unique touch. Or, include accent images like monograms – you can add the initial of your first or last name for that elegant, timeless appeal. And that’s not all – make sure to add a short personal message or inspirational quote for checks that really express your individuality.

Feeling particularly creative? Don’t marry yourself to one design! Several designs offer the option to include multiple scenes. Each check you hand out will feature various designs on the same theme. For instance, if you choose a whimsical butterfly design, your checks will rotate through four different butterfly designs and color schemes for variety. You’ll never have to deal with opening up a box of boring bank issued checkbooks again!

Designing the perfect check isn’t hard and making sure your sensitive financial data is safe shouldn’t be either. Vistaprint makes it easy to enter your account information and ensures that this is done in a safe, secure manner. So you can be certain that creating unique checks online is always hassle-free!

However you choose to personalize your checks – they’re sure to be unique!
