They are used to decorate scrapbooks pages. instead of writing it by hand you could use computer fronts like TIMES NEW ROMAN. It looks better! but how do I go by , if I want to put it in cardstock?

You should be able to put the card stock straight in your printer and print. That's what I do. The only thing is, you'll need to cut your paper down to a size that will fit your printer (if you use 12x12 paper). Another option is to use vellum or a transparency and then trim around the fonts.
If you want more fonts, try searching for free fonts you can download to your computer. Have a look here (great site for fonts): http://www.1001freefonts.com/
Good luck!

all you need is the card stock. You really don't need any special materials or supplies. Don't cut your card stock until you are finished printing on it. You probably already have microsoft word processor on your computer, so all you need to do is pick your font, color, & whatever else, type what you want. you'll want to take out your printer paper, then put in one sheet at a time of your cardstock. It'll print on the cardstock like it does on any paper, then you can cut it down to size if needed and put on your page. You print on pretty much anything just using your home printer, sometimes you may have to change you setting for your papers weight but thats real easy. Hope this helps you and good luck.

Use Microsoft Word or Microsoft Publisher, and type out what you want to say on your scrapbook page, then adjust the font, size, etc., and print it on 8.5x11" cardstock.
Most printers will allow you to print on vellum, cardstock, and other types of paper.
I use vellum often, but, with my Lexmark printer, I leave the page in the paper tray, after it's been printed, for about a half an hour, because the ink dries slowly on vellum.
Good luck and happy scrapping!

Fonts? Whats a Front?
As for the card stock, your printer should have a guide so you know how to line up your paper and it will print on the right side!
