Coincidentally

Some months after working on feather themed invitations, I found myself working on feather themed thank you cards. These are the glossy folded cards- In my experience, any time you have photographs, you probably want to go with a glossy card.

Largest magnet size offered

Here is an example of a 4x7 inch magnet with rounded corners. The couple had a photo with their date written in the sand. It was a great shot, but the heart&date would not have been visible at another size, much less including the wording and so forth. The 4x7 size turned out to be perfect, and with just a little darkening on the writing in the sand, we had an excellent design. The bright light in the center is just the result of the camera flash hitting the laminate.

More invitations

More invitations with a custom design. This customer went with matte cardstock. The palm/fern images are a custom design that she paid a little more for- and also then could obtain the file for her own projects. Main cards is 5x7 inches, rsvp is 3x5 inches.

New magnet size

One of the custom magnet sizes I don't bother advertising is about 2.1x2.8 inches. This example shows a design created for a customer. The 3.5x2 inch size was just a little too narrow for the text, and, a little too long for her photo's dimensions. Needing a magnet size that was a little more squarish, but having a simple design that really didn't merit the larger 3.5x4 inch size, this project ended up being perfect for this new size.

Folded cards and magnets

This is a classic example of a 5.5x4.25 inch folded card & magnet combination order. The front is a simple, classic layout. Hotel information is printed on an inside panel, slits to hold the magnet on the opposite panel.

This combination always works well for small photographic magnets that won't have a large amount of text.




The other product I usually sell for mailing small magnets- flat slitted cards- are useful, but when there is more information to impart, folded cards work very well.

Fonts for the card text can easily be chosen to match the magnet design, and vice versa.

These cards are usually sold white or cream with matching envelopes. A few other colors of card stock are available, but always cost more.

Beach related invitations

These invitations were created for a customer of mine. She ordered her save the dates from me, then came back later with an invitation idea. Her invitation idea was a custom project, and so it took a while for me to answer her emails. She was patient with me, and we went went through number of revisions. At long last, the end result was a 7 card invitation, plus response cards. Because this is a destination wedding, there was a lot of important and useful information to include.

The 7 cards are 5.5 inches square. Invitation and RSVP envelopes were printed. Because we went with a linen card stock, I did have a higher limit against how small I would make the text. Each card design is mainly text- a fun font for the titles, a more basic font for the information- and seashells.

Also because of the linen card stock, I recommended not going with a photographic cover image. The photo cover image -also created just for her project- that we considered using for the invitation cover card was something to tie in with the glossy front save the dates and thank you cards she ordered. The thank you cards (left) glossy front folded 5.5x4.25 inches. Generally for any designs involving photographic and full coverage graphics, people are happiest going with glossy cards.

Table Numbers

Simple table numbers, made with white card stock, using the Olde English font. The number is printed on both sides, each side being about 4.25x5.5 inches. The bottom support allows for more stability, and also has a fold that that storing these tent cards easy.
