Graduation Time!

When you think of graduating students, you probably always envision spring. But there are a number of college students that graduate at the end of the fall semester.

This post is to show off a graduation announcement that is a step above your typical card. This is a 5x3.5 inch black gatefold with a shimmering champagne printed card, complete with a matching champagne seal. The printed design is simple, with the graduating year inside a graduation hat.

Happy Holidays!

Looking forward to the end of the month and holiday festivities!

The Save the Date Originals 2010 holiday cards are still rolling out. I couldn't decide upon a design this year, and ended up sending out a handful of different cards/magnets/designs.



Much work is to be done on the website over the coming months and year.

Did you know? Shaped cards are now available. Circles, of course, but also ovals, diamonds, sandals, hearts, stars and more. A section with examples will be available at some point in the future.

I hereby vow to have the holiday card section updated with some ideas/examples well before next December.

Newspaper announcement save the date magnets

This idea came from a customer asking me to scan in her engagement announcement from the local newspaper, and print it on a magnet.

It turned out to look a lot better if I re-typed the wording and had her email me the photograph she wanted to use.

Why not turn that newspaper idea into a save the date magnet?

Below is a photograph of a 2.75x6 inch non-glossy magnet designed to look like a newspaper engagement announcement:
